Human Sexuality/Biology Question?

I posted this question in Social Sciences and got no answers... but I know there's always people on Polls and Surveys that will help out...

:)

Q: Are humans the only animals that mate in the missionary position? If not... What other animals mate in this "face to face" fashion?

Q: Biologically speaking, do you believe that we humans always had the instinct and ability to "switch around" our mating postions? Or were we once inclined to mate only in the... um... "doggie" position... much like the rest of the animal kingdom?

Or do you believe humans were always instinctually inclined to mate using the "missionary" position, never the "doggie" position?

Thanks...

T.

    1. yes, We are the only ones in the animal kingdom to, utilize the Missionary Position.

    2. no, We weren't always physically capable of mating in the Missionary Position. once We started walking upright(Homo Erectus), everything shifted forward, making it much easier to mate face, to face.

    Yes.

    The missionary was the norm until people got bored and decided to try something new.

    Maybe the first humans had sex that way. Because didn't they used to walk on all fours?

    Don't know. Lots of things have changed since the first humans were created.

    Neanderthals became extinct after about 250,000 years and the trendy day human is merely about 40,000 years previous. i'd be surprised if we very last see you later because the neanderthals did. Species might want to die off and face extinction for brand new species to get up and flourish. it would properly be a blend of both, we are able to proceed to adapt yet there would properly be some style of occurrance or incedent that we'd no longer live on. something is achieveable. properly inspect that, word how shielding christians get.. i imagine they're getting a tad bit scared..

    Maybe porcupines, their mating dance is face-to-face.
