  • angusm, on 12/20/2007, -3/+102So how do you say "Oh God! Yes! Yes! YESSSSS!" in monkey language?
  • tyfighter, on 12/20/2007, -2/+88I'll have what she's having.
  • buildbyflying, on 12/20/2007, -1/+50monkey sex = good science.

    • pilot3033, on 12/20/2007, -0/+1serious buisness
    • kmartshopper, on 12/20/2007, -1/+1Monkey sex may be, but the conclusions are misleading. Who is to say the screaming causes the ejaculation/thrusts and not that the thrusts/ejaculation causes the screaming?
    • Scottamus, on 12/20/2007, -0/+2In other news scientists decided it was important to study why monkeys shout during sex.
  • MaxMWood, on 12/20/2007, -3/+64Wish I could teach my wife to do that..
  • MaxMWood, on 12/20/2007, -4/+105My wife shouts at me all the time but its not to help me climax.. shes just one moody cow!
    • mortigon, on 12/20/2007, -0/+18Well... if your username is actually your first, middle initial, and last name, then you better hope your wife doesn't visit digg!
    • orangekid13, on 12/20/2007, -3/+1no it's cause you did so fast
  • pedrovoltaire, on 12/20/2007, -3/+6oh pizzer, you're so hot.
  • mightydavefish, on 12/20/2007, -1/+140"They found when shouting occurred, thrusting increased. In other words, hollering led to more vigorous sex."

    I think most of us found that out in college.
    • sadfly, on 12/20/2007, -2/+6They should do this experiment with digg users.

      "Scientists have found that digg users have pelvic thrust rates a full standard deviation below the mean. When the females shout RON PAUL RON PAUL, pelvic thrust rates increase almost twofold"
  • terencec, on 12/20/2007, -2/+39what an awesome job the researchers have, watching monkeys ***** each other all day long and taking notes
    • nyx210, on 12/20/2007, -0/+18It's really just an excuse for scientists to watch animal porn
      • Waterrat, on 12/20/2007, -0/+1 So true..I read some research done on the researchers and scientists do a LOT of research on animal sexual behavior...
    • Porbeagle, on 12/20/2007, -3/+2totally dude, don't you wish YOU could do that? lol
    • yojiffyskippy, on 12/20/2007, -1/+3Awesome? Not my idea of awesome.
    • wibambau, on 12/20/2007, -0/+3Just don't lose count when counting thrusts, it might skew your results a little.
      • vuke69, on 12/20/2007, -0/+1Naahh,.. just hit em with the fire hose, and make em start over...
  • Happy_Phantom, on 12/20/2007, -0/+8Screamer
  • cmccool, on 12/20/2007, -0/+51[Counting monkey pelvic thrusts is admittedly "quite weird, but it's science," researcher Dana Pfefferle, a behavioral scientist and primatologist at the German Primate Center, told LiveScience. "You get used to it."]

    hahaha!
    • centran, on 12/20/2007, -0/+7The best line of the whole article.
    • mortigon, on 12/20/2007, -1/+22She must suck in bed...

      "You know sweety, I've been doing a little experiment. Since I've been screaming your thrusts have increased in speed, by almost 50% in 2 minutes!"

      "I just lost my boner"
  • sajnikanth, on 12/20/2007, -1/+49FTA - To see if yelling resulted from how vigorous the sex was, the scientists counted the number of pelvic thrusts males gave and timed when they happened.

  • torrzilla, on 12/20/2007, -0/+94The female monkey is screaming "Hurry up, already. I don't want a bunch of humans with clipboards staring at my ass all day."
  • Lane, on 12/20/2007, -1/+24"Without these yells, male Barbary macaques (Macaca sylvanus) almost never ejaculated, scientists found."
    I have but one word to describe this.....envy : (
  • exninjahunter, on 12/20/2007, -7/+2Theres some things you just don't want to know.....and this was one of them
    • GliTCH82, on 12/20/2007, -0/+11Don't worry, you'll find a hot monkey girl one day that will drive you bananas.
  • GeneralFailure0, on 12/20/2007, -1/+110I thought monkeys yelled when they did pretty much everything.
  • ntdesign, on 12/20/2007, -1/+18http://www.metacafe.com/watch/762373/monkey_sex/

    • centran, on 12/20/2007, -0/+5did that monkey do the quick sniff test before going in?
      • ubuwalker31, on 12/20/2007, -0/+4You should always do a quick sniff test - no one wants to ***** skanky cheese smellin snatch
    • itspuddingtime, on 12/20/2007, -0/+4definitely the most relevant comment here
  • mandarin, on 12/20/2007, -0/+1I have the Power!
  • lukemandese, on 12/20/2007, -0/+4lol, they could use not yelling as birth control. if they dont yell, the males ejaculate less than 2% of the time.
    • GliTCH82, on 12/20/2007, -0/+6Yeah, we humans usually call that a "dead *****".
  • joewashere, on 12/20/2007, -4/+19just to get it out of the way.

    "pics or it didnt happen"
  • colincornaby, on 12/20/2007, -2/+2"Female monkeys may shout during sex to help their male partners climax, research now reveals." Well thanks for spoiling it! I was looking forward to reading this article too.
  • rexamafex, on 12/20/2007, -1/+8anyone else think that its kind of the same for humans....?
  • AtHomeBoy2000, on 12/20/2007, -3/+5My wife does this, so what?
  • hendrixlives64, on 12/20/2007, -1/+6clearly, the group of scientists conducting this experiment were comprised explicitly of virgins.
  • ucbluman, on 12/20/2007, -0/+1i'm sure all this research will be available soon on the internet for one low monthly fee.
  • thisguy47, on 12/20/2007, -3/+6All I ***** is chimps and orangatangs!
  • gilgamesh23, on 12/20/2007, -8/+4So... this research increases our quality of life, how?
    • mortigon, on 12/20/2007, -0/+9if you could get a nice grant and get paid to study something stupid, you would do it too
  • okthxbai, on 12/20/2007, -1/+0video or it ddnt happen

  • benska, on 12/20/2007, -3/+6And when the experiment was over, the male monkey yelled to his partner, "I CAN HAS CIGARETTES?"
    • mortigon, on 12/20/2007, -0/+3and the female monkey screamed "YOU AREN'T IGNORING ME THIS TIME, I'M NOT DONE"
  • jayyyyyyyyyyyyy, on 12/20/2007, -0/+2Good to see scientist hard at work.

  • Technoloki, on 12/20/2007, -0/+2What . . . the . . . hell . . . someone actually obtained funding to count monkey spunks? And this was a worthwhile scientific investment becuzzzzz . . . ???
    • girishmuraly, on 12/20/2007, -0/+0I agree with you Technoloki. I also dont find the point of this study. Monkeys shout during sex, so what?!
  • benska, on 12/20/2007, -0/+7Next up: "Study shows that female monkeys yelling during Pantein Pro-V commercials sells more monkey Shampoo"
  • cbegin, on 12/20/2007, -0/+2Why didn't they just ask me?

    • xstarsprinklesx, on 12/20/2007, -0/+3Why, do you have a lot of experience with monkey sex?
      • cbegin, on 12/20/2007, -1/+0I'd respond, but I just read that other Digg headliner about being careful with sex emails and I'm worried the same may be true of Digg comments. ^_^
  • LegendX, on 12/20/2007, -0/+3This proves it! I am not the one with the problem in the bed! Its her fault I can't ejaculate!
