Bonobos, or "pygmy chimpanzees", are an endangered[1] ape species in the genus Pan (the only other being the common chimp). Bonobos are falsely claimed to be more peaceful and social than the common chimpanzee.

Myth and Reality

Bonobos have been the subject of much elaborate atheopath fiction and justification by perverts for hedonistic practices in human life, mainly because of their supposed connection to humans by the evolutionary tree (as with chimps). They have also been the icon for feminist views due to another popular misconception that their society is entirely dominated by females. Despite the ongoing research of this species which has been actively studied since their discovery in 1926, there are substantial differences between captive and natural bonobo behavior, yet regardless there is much deception regarding their true behavior in both contexts. Researches cite the fact that Jane Goodall, an early primatologist who studied chimps, thought the species to be peaceful even after decades of first-hand research. As with such cases, bonobos are being exposed as not the famous 'hippie chimps' they were purported by evolutionist propaganda. Claims that they have sex purely for pleasure, obsessively, with all sexes and ages, and that their nature was primarily benevolent, have been skewered by recent research.

'Sexual contact' is a broad term often used in research papers for bonobos. Many sexual acts are much akin to the humping seen on dogs or bull mountings, and the like. Very rarely does such contact last long or involve orgasm. Some are even arguably non-sexual such as back-to-back rubbing.

Ironically, the secular Atheist website Skeptic Ink posted a review of [2]The Naked Bonobo, a scholarly work by primatologist Lynn Saxon which critiques and debunks many popular conceptions of bonobo behavior. In it, such propaganda is exposed. The author of the article and the book itself were backed by other well known primatologists.
