Dateless on New Year’s Eve

From Indonesia, macaque monkeys pay for sex!  Well, they trade grooming services for sex anyway.  But when there are more lady fish in the sea (or monkeys in the jungle, rather),  grooming goes way down.  The male has to spend a lot less time nitpicking before he’s allowed to bed his mate.

How big is this news?  Not very.  Monkeys groom each other.  Monkeys mate, especially the promiscuous bononos.  One big orgy with that species.  Oh the life of a monkey!

What does this all mean for our species?  Gents, should you start carrying a hairbrush to use on anyone you want to hit on?  Ladies, if a guy spends a few minutes picking the lint off your fleece, are you bringing him home that evening?

Comments welcome, but guys, we probably shouldn’t get our hopes up.
