You'll Get Luckier - At Least With a Chimp - If You Buy Dinner First

Hey, Friday night, date night! Are some of you menfolk feeling like you could use some special loving from your loved one? Try getting her in the mood with a big, juicy steak!
Sorry if I just rattled a bunch of vegetarian cages, that wasn't my intention! I'm just passing along some new primate related research that shows male chimps who share meat get more sex action from the lady chimps. In fact, they double their mating chances when they pass the leg bone!
The old "boom boom" doesn't happen when other behaviors, like groomings, are exchanged. In fact, grooming usually just gets you more grooming. Yawn.
Naturally, since we're all descended from primates (except for those nice folks who were supernaturally deposited from spaceships over the past few thousand years -- welcome to our planet!) the next step is to investigate how this behavior plays out with humans.
In other words, more research needs to be done to see if humans also have "the dude you date" vs. "the guy who does your hair" categories. And if the dude you date gives you carne asada, do you reciprocate with caliente amore?
As interesting as that will be, I think most of us are familiar with the dinner = nookie paradigm. The really important question is, "Do vegetarians get more or less sex than meat eaters?" Let's find out!
