When female bonobos join a new group, they will do anything to get with the "it" crowd — which often means having sex with the alpha female.

And according to new research, females of this promiscuous primate species who are climbing the social ladder will advertise their successes during sex by calling out, especially when their partner is of higher status or when the alpha female is in the audience.

"These females are climbing social ladders," study researcher Zanna Clay, a postdoctoral researcher at Emory University, told LiveScience. "By engaging in these social-sexual interactions, they are showing off their social abilities."

5. By the Gods! Has anyone alerted Santorum?

Perhaps we can be freed of his ilk by having them go off to be 'missionaries' to the Bonobos. Perhaps they will throw crap in his face while he is telling them that they are going to hell.
