Alfred Kinsey:
In the bonobo chimpanzee, our nearest primate relation, sex is the glue of social cohesion and peace. Cleared of notions like romantic love or religion or morality, their society's behavior hangs together as a coherent unit of biology and conditioning

In the bonobo chimpanzee--
our nearest primate relation--
00:00:10.472 --> 00:00:14.509
sex is the glue of social cohesion and peace.
00:00:14.609 --> 00:00:16.844
Cleared of notions
like romantic love
00:00:16.944 --> 00:00:19.038
or religion or morality,
00:00:19.481 --> 00:00:21.549
their society's behavior hangs together
00:00:21.649 --> 00:00:24.986
as a coherent unit of biology and conditioning.
00:00:25.999 --> 00:00:29.791
Based on the experiences of females who have contributed to our histories,
00:00:29.891 --> 00:00:35.463
we have observed a wide range of motivations for extramarital coitus.
00:00:35.563 --> 00:00:41.435
At times, it is a conscious or unconscious attempt to acquire social status.
00:00:41.536 --> 00:00:44.506
In other instances,
it gives them a variety of experiences
00:00:44.606 --> 00:00:49.999
with new sexual partners who are sometimes superior...marriage partner.
00:00:51.003 --> 00:00:53.815
There are occasions
when it is done in retaliation
00:00:53.915 --> 00:00:55.095
for the partner's
extramarital activity
00:00:56.997 --> 00:00:59.999
or for some sort
of nonsexual mistreatment.
