:Our high intelligence and complex societies have produced in us the most complicated sexual behaviors of any animal.

That's very subjective opinion. Compared to other animals, human sexuality is quite simple. You know - you need just a male and a female and ... done :)
Many important aspects of normal animal sexuality like estrus, sexual demonstrations, fighting between males before any copulation,
eating partner or partner's previous children don't exist or exist only in very reduced form in humans. --Taw

:Tush. I revised it and put it back on the page - hopefully the new version is less mantis-bashing :-). And I think most of the behaviors you list are present in humans in an attenuated or sublimated form.

:And -- many aspects of (well, maybe not important and maybe not normal) human sexuality such as high-heel shoes, alimony, [Queer theory]?, contraception, [de Sade]? (yeesh), red sports cars, panty raids, hentai (need I go on? :-) ) don't exist in animals.
