Scientists have studied Chimpanzee groups and noted that when males share meat with females, they are more likely to mate with those males. It’s not an instantaneous transaction.

“Honey, I brought meat home. Let’s get it on!”

I wonder if there are different grades of meat that Chimps can bring to their prospective mates. Rats probably don’t fetch as much favor as monkey meat. It’s sort of like giving a girl a boquet of carnations.

Humans are above trading themselves for meat. Instead we trade other people for meat and beer. This is what separates us from the animals.
