bonobos

Fetishes: bonobos

Deep in the soul of the hot, wet swamps of the Congo, there is a tribe. It is here, in their wild, erotic Garden of Eden, in the middle of war-torn territory, that our closest cousins, the bonobos, live and share a powerful kind of pleasure, and make an extraordinary kind of love.

Just in case you don’t know a bonobo from a bonsai tree, bonobos, classified as Pan paniscus, are also called pygmy chimpanzees in primatology circles. We call them the horniest apes on Earth. Some scientists say they’re closer to humans than common chimps, though that’s debatable. They certainly look more like us, with their longer legs, smaller ears and more open faces with higher foreheads. Sexually speaking, the genitals of bonobo females are rotated forward like those of human females, so that they can have face-to-face sex rather than just "doggie style," with the male mounting from behind, like most other primates. Basically, bonobos can do "it" in almost as many positions as we can, and they do do it--a lot.
