Adam and Eve...
so i started pondering this tonight in the shower. do you think if you were one of the first humans on earth that you would figure out sex? i wonder if humans were created with such a massive sex drive so they were pushed to figure it out during the first generation of the species. i mean, animals go into heat and have mating dances that are part of instinct and all, but we really have nothing. so maybe that's why we have the sex drive. that way we would start to figure something out based on "urges" until we finally pinpointed how it worked. or maybe there were many tries before there was a good balance of intelligence and sexual urge. i mean, if we learned it from watching the animals, i'm sure missionary wouldn't have been the "basic position."
and women, how freaked would you have been as the first woman on the planet and then on top of that all of a sudden your stomach starts getting bigger, you start feeling more uncomfortable and just kind of strange, and then 9 months later you have massive stomach pains and a bloody gooey thing pops out of you. you eventually have to figure out that it's alive and kind of looks like a miniature you. and what would you do about the umbilical cord. i mean, you're working off no previous knowledge here. do you try several things before you get sick of it and separate you and the baby using a sharp rock to sever the cord? sorry, i don't mean to be graphic here, but really now. we take all of this for granted. of course then you have white stuff shooting out of your nipples and you eventually have to piece together that you feed the miniature you the white stuff. anyway, just something to ponder. i wonder how the first humans figured out the sex thing. who knows, maybe the part that was left out of the Bible was when God gave them a quick sex lesson.
