    I'd be a pigeon - dropping bricks while flying = mindblowing.

    What would you be, and why?

    I'll stick with human, as another animal I more than likely wouldn't have the mental capacity to appreciate what I am and for the most part the human form is as good a shape as nature has thrown up to date. I'd really miss having hands for instance.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,077 ✭✭✭✭bnt


    I'd be a Mayfly: be born, grow up, fly around, procreate, and die - and all in one day. Then do it all over again, if reincarnation happens to be real. :p

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    I'd like to be a puppy or a kitten or polar bear/penguin or an animal that's a vegetarian...I get back to you on that! A nice cuddly, warm, leaf eating animal! Giraffe no, kola maybe, panda maybe, monkey no, gorilla no, elephant maybe as they are gentle creatures and have big brains, maybe a deer? Cannot decide!

    A tapeworm.

    I have a morbid fear of contracting tapeworm and what better way to conquer that fear than to become one.

    Plus, they're really long and I'm only average height. Would be nice to be longer for a change even if I looked fucking disgusting.

    Cat or a Peregrine Falcon. Imagine swooping at over 200 miles an hour - must be some rush.

    definitely a panther... the way they're so agile and dangerous too.

    Bonobo monkey.
    Sexual intercourse plays a major role in bonobo society observed in captivity, being used as what some scientists perceive as a greeting, a means of forming social bonds, a means of conflict resolution, and post-conflict reconciliation. Bonobos are the only non-human animal to have been observed engaging in all of the following sexual activities: face-to-face genital sex (although a pair of Western Gorillas has been photographed performing face-to-face genital sex[40]), tongue kissing, and oral sex.[41] In scientific literature, the female-female behavior of touching genitals together is often referred to as GG rubbing or genital-genital rubbing. The sexual activity happens within the immediate community and sometimes outside of it. Bonobos do not form permanent monogamous sexual relationships with individual partners. They also do not seem to discriminate in their sexual behavior by sex or age, with the possible exception of abstaining from sexual intercourse between mothers and their adult sons. When bonobos come upon a new food source or feeding ground, the increased excitement will usually lead to communal sexual activity, presumably decreasing tension and encouraging peaceful feeding.[42]


    Group of Bonobos
    Bonobo males occasionally engage in various forms of male-male genital behavior.[43][44] In one form, two males hang from a tree limb face-to-face while "penis fencing".[45][46] This also may occur when two males rub their penises together while in face-to-face position. Another form of genital interaction, called "rump rubbing", occurs to express reconciliation between two males after a conflict, when they stand back-to-back and rub their scrotal sacs together. Takayoshi Kano observed similar practices among bonobos in the natural habitat.
    Bonobo females also engage in female-female genital behavior, possibly to bond socially with each other, thus forming a female nucleus of bonobo society. The bonding among females enables them to dominate bonobo society. Although male bonobos are individually stronger, they cannot stand alone against a united group of females.[46] Adolescent females often leave their native community to join another community. Sexual bonding with other females establishes these new females as members of the group. This migration mixes the bonobo gene pools, providing genetic diversity.
    Bonobo reproductive rates are not any higher than those of the common chimpanzee.[42] Female bonobos carry and nurse their young for five years and can give birth every five to six years. Compared to common chimpanzees, bonobo females resume the genital swelling cycle much sooner after giving birth, enabling them to rejoin the sexual activities of their society. Also, bonobo females who are sterile or too young to reproduce still engage in sexual activity.
