5 Sex Lessons From the Animal Kingdom

DearSugar — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 15:00:00 -0800

A recent study shows that deer mice are monogamous and have "superior stress tolerance and blood sugar regulation." That would make us think that for humans, a monogamous relationship would prove to offer health benefits, but what else can we learn from the animal kingdom? Here are the first five of 10 sex lessons from a recent MSNBC article and my interpretation of each one. I'll warn you, some of these are a little out there, but enjoy!

Do not turn sex into warfare: If you nag your guy and pressure him into having intimacy, it'll drive him away and you both could end up unhappy.
Avoid weaponizing your penis: If a guy pierces his business or does anything else that may make sex painful to a woman, she won't want to engage in the act with him.

Try woman on top: Guys like to be on top so they can be in control of the speed and depth of intercourse. If the woman is on top though, there's a better chance sex will last longer, so she's more likely to have an orgasm. If she has an orgasm, the guy will end up feeling very proud and confident that he can please his lady. This in turn will translate to having sex more often. Win-win.
For a great afterglow, choose an orgy: I don't know about this one. Rats have been known to mate in groups and switch partners in the middle of copulation. While free love sounds fun, given today's rates of STIs, this just doesn't seem safe.
Gifts don’t always work: If you're having issues in the intimacy department, a dozen roses from the guy won't necessarily solve a sexual conflict.

Orangina Ad Treats Animals Like Objectified Women

I was looking through the list of the UK's most complained about ads, when I came across a doozie. In an Orangina ad that upset those sensitive to sexism, creatures with female features dance provocatively in the forest.

A flamingo gets down on the stripper poll, and a deer gets dowsed in Orangina. Zebras ride massive bottles that shoot juice all over a bikini-clad bunny, and an octopus's breasts turn into juicy oranges. (All the animals are wearing bikinis, by the way.) The female animals are definitely oversexualized, but do you find it offensive?

Geriatric Jones and the Search for Comfortable Shoes

Harrison Ford has gotten pretty buff for his role in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. I cannot believe it's been almost 30 years since he did Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)! This following animation makes fun of his age, but really it's a testament to how well he's aged that he's still able to participate in this franchise - without, as they joke, a wheelchair or comfortable shoes!

This Squirrel Has More Clothes Than I Do

Sugar Bush the Squirrel is like the Cindy Sherman of the animal kingdom. He's Super-Squirrel who, at any given moment, can be Fidel Castro, fighting Al Qaeda, or dressed as a geisha. Wow. Just when you thought you'd seen it all...

The openness of the animal kingdom continues to astound me. This baby tiger is being raised by a sow alongside piglets in the Guandong province of China. I know I'm getting all Disney on you guys, but in this harsh world, it's nice to know that, even if only for a time, predator and prey can get along.

Interspecies Physical Fitness

Remember the walrus workout? Well, it seems to have gained popularity in the animal kingdom because we're now seeing monkeys exercise and pit bulls...well, they try. But I think we're barking up the wrong tree if we think we'll ever see a pit-bull do a sit-up. They're abs-olutely hopeless!
