I wasn't talking about shit-eating bonobos. I was
talking about bonobos who lick one anothers' sex
organs --as humans are also known to do world wide.
Despite the famous rhyme, it's not only the French who
engage in this. Plenty of pottery from Peru and
anthropologists' account verify it --even the Arabian
Nights talks about it. If you've traveled, you'd know
how widespread it is --even in 3rd world cultures
without bidets.
