On the Internet you can find statements that dolphins are the only creatures, except for people who are pleasure in the process of mating, and not only guided by the instinct of reproduction. We decided to check if this is so.
Dolphins in the mass consciousness are generally unique animals: in the media they write that they Save people in water and They come up with yourself personal names. And the fact that dolphins mate, including for pleasure, like people, Seems Another evidence of their highly developed. In popular InternetCollections Dolphins are distinguished as the only such animals.
The social function of mating in animals has long been known. Animals have sex not only for childbearing: in the wild, sex with very young, incapable of conception to females is found, and one -sex sex, which cannot lead to reproduction by definition.
Males of the monkeys of Bonobo, for example, rub Genitals in tense situations - for example, excited from the type of food found or having heard the cries of monkeys from another flock. Females do the same, but not only in case of excitement. The young females of Bonobo, finding themselves in a new pack, choose one of the older females there and try to become its “protege”, including by friction of her genitals.
Sex serves as an important way to strengthen social ties in a dolphin pack. How found out Scientists, dolphins often enter into same -sex connections. Sexual behavior is also noticed in very young individuals. For example, females of bottled dolphins rub on each other's clits with their face and fins.
Moreover, social status seems to affect pleasure. Biologist Alfonso Troizi I thought Female orgasms in Japanese macaques. The scientist observed 240 sexual intercourse, in 80 of which the female experienced an orgasm, and saw a correlation. Most often, females with low status in a pack were experiencing an orgasm when they mated with males of a high rank. “The mechanisms that control the threshold of orgasm in females are more sensitive to social stimuli and are less limited by physiological restrictions than previously considered,” Troizi suggested.
By the way, about the female orgasm. For conception, he Not necessaryTherefore, the presence of an orgasm in female would tell us a lot of animal sensations during sex. Clitoris There is In all mammals. But whether it is functional is an unobvious question for scientists.
The clitoris began to be studied even recently even in the human body. Unlike the penis, the anatomy of the clitoris was completely Described Just in the late 90s of the XX century. He was first fully studied by the Australian scientist Helen O’Connel. In an anatomy textbook, she met a description that the female genitals are “unsuccessfully” formed male. The wording was so angry that O’Konn made female intimate organs with its theme for studying and I became The first woman-urologist in Australia.
The idea of the clitoris as an underdeveloped penis appeared because any embryo in the womb of the mother does not matter what gender - at first it has the same sexual Bugorok. About the 12th week of pregnancy (if we are talking about a person) he Formed Either in the penis or in the clitoris. So the clitoris in animal females could only be useless “unconnected” penis. However, this is not so - at least for some species. Scientists managed to call in the laboratory orgasm In cows, as well as female chimpanzees and macaques. So, their clitoris responded to stimulation.
And in recent years, a group of women scientists has been studying the clitoris with dolphins. They came to conclusionthat there are many vessels and nerve endings in the clitoris. The organ is well developed, capable of erection and even more successfully located than people, found out Dr. Dara Orbach and her colleagues.
There is a scientific work, and completely involving a connection between pleasure from sex and ovulation. In some mammals, ovulation - the moment when the egg becomes accessible to conception - does not occur at a certain time of the cycle of the reproductive system, as in people. In protein, moles, raccoons, koal, ovulation causes sexual intercourse with a male. Biologists Noticedthat in such animals the clitoris is located on the border with the vagina or inside it. In fact, according to their assumption, in these animals, ovulation is stimulated by pleasure.
However, the ability to enjoy sex does not mean that animals often succeed in wild nature. The same dolphins - with their large and functional clitors - are not always happy with sex. Scientists Observingthat when the female females are harassed, they often try to escape, fight off their tails or turn their back so that the male could not reach the genitals.
