This helps explain why sex persists as a dominant mechanism for producing offspring.

A fossil called Bangiomorpha pubescens is a multicellular organism that sexually reproduced, the oldest reported occurrence in the fossil record.

The evidence that these fossils sexually reproduced is in the finding that the spores or reproductive cells they generated came in two forms – male and female. Today we know that red algae lack sperm that actively swim. They rely on water currents to transport their reproductive cells, which is likely how they have been doing it for the last 1.2 billion years.

Two members of the same species combine their DNA to produce a new genome.

Some of their offspring will carry a beneficial mix of good genes from both parents, meaning they will respond better to environmental stresses that would leave asexual species in grave danger.

It is a "learning" process – an organism "learns" new information, especially in a changing environment, and the organism passes those lessons on (in its DNA) to the next generation to help them survive.

Darwin suggested that natural selection was not the only evolutionary pressure at work in sex. There was something else going on as well, something Darwin called sexual selection. This is a preference by one sex for certain characteristics in individuals of the other sex.

A study published in 2015 found that it is vital for males to compete for reproduction and females to choose between those competing males.

I thought "The timing just isn't right."

I thought "He's working a lot and doesn't have time for me."

I thought "I can change him."

I thought "I would wait and see"

I thought "He wasn'nt shure if he could give me the relationship I need".

I thought "He does not deserve me."

I thought "He likes things as they are and is not sure he wants to teke it to the next level."

I thought "He's been in a lot of Long Term Relationships and might not be ready"

I thought "This relationship is too good and it scares him."

I thought "He was badly hurt in his last relationship.".

Saving themselves for the Perfect Mate. Because its important to them or they feel it might be important to their potential mate.

Being a virgin is to sex what being an atheist is to religion. Other people spend a lot of time doing it, and it seems to make them happy, but it simply isn’t a part of my life.

Never learned how to ask a girl out

I feel strange dating/mating coworkers, so I never really jumped on those chances.

I Would rather play World of Warcraft than learn how to interact with others.

No interest whatsoever.

Other people dont seem to share my interests.

I might have self esteem issues.

People get convinced that every person of the opposite sex finds them unattractive. Usually because of some factor or another.

my parents were Muslim, and I wasn’t allowed to date.

I never found a man I felt comfortable enough to lose my virginity to, one that I felt connected to and trusted.

Lack of Opportunity and a waek self esteem.

I have mild Asperger’s

I’m really an eternal teenager. I do nothing but play video games outside of work, and every other hobby bores me to tears.

I can’t have sex with the people I am attracted to. It’s a vicious cycle that will forever haunt me.

I’m severely physically deformed, I’m in a wheelchair, and I have burn marks over most of my body, including my face.

I can never escalate a date into sex.

Everyone I know has horrible relationships including my parents.

I never learned to interact with Girls.

The perception that Black women are hard to get along with, mean, bitchy, argumentative, bitter, etc. has become a reality for too many black women.

I know you’re saying yea right. But this is actually true. I know personally for me, I have been married before, but I prefer to be single, especially since I don’t want to have children.

To say it’s just a shortage of black men is only a small part of the problem, but as Black women we have to re-evaluate who we are and who we’ve become today. Black men don’t see the strong, quiet strength of their mothers and grandmothers.

I know this may be unpopular, but it is the truth. A woman who wants to have a family should capitalize on her looks, age, and fertility while she is young instead of only focusing on chasing the high-powered career.

You have to ask why are there so many black men in prison and under-educated? Why is the unemployment rate so high for black males? Why is the suicide rate so high for black males? Why are so many black men absent in their child’s life?

Many of the traditional rules of courtship don’t exist, for better or for worse, Black women have to do things differently to attract and maintain a long-term relationship with a man.

Because its mandatory foreplay, or because you genuinely like it?

A study by the Journal of Reproductive Immunology shows women are likely to enjoy going down on their male partners because their semen can go on to help them through pregnancy.

According to the study, once a woman becomes accustomed to her partner’s DNA, her body will not see the fertilized semen as “foreign” during pregnancy. And this is a good thing, as apparently this plays a major role in a number of pregnancy disorders.

When a woman swallows her partmers’s semen, her body begins to change in a variety of ways to accept his DNA. If said woman and man then decide to have a baby together, the familiar sperm shouldn’t feel out of place — or “foreign”

The study by Professor Gustaff Dekker, from the University of Adelaide, in 2002. At the time, he said, "If there's repeated exposure to that signal then eventually when the woman conceives, her cells will say, 'we know that guy, he's been around a long time, we'll allow the pregnancy to continue.’”

Men like to have Oral Sex with their partners to insure that they are sexually satisfied and there will be less of a chance of straying or cheating.

Men are more likely to perform cunnilingus on their partner until she achieves orgasm," the study states. It seems, then, that cunnilingus is used as a mate-retention strategy.

Men with a greater risk for sperm competition — meaning they thought their attractive partners would stray — are more likely to give oral sex.

More men recieve oral sex than women.

Some women may over sensitive to direct clitoral stimulation.

"Humans are a highly sexed species compared to most mammals and engage in many non-procreative sexual acts, perhaps for pleasure alone,” McGreal notes. "Oral sex might simply be a by-product of this interest in sex that humans have."

It Feels So Good Either Giving or Getting it.

Thats my story and I'm sticking to it...

Trading stories, expeiences, hopes and aspirations  etc.

They probably both needed to go anyway

To help each other with hair and makeup and for that final mutual stray toilet paper inspection.

They dont want to hurt your feelings if a guy happens to hit on them on the way. And they want companionship in case a girl trys to hit on them in the bathroom.

Each group of people can compare notes and impressions with each other and discuss goals etc..

They went in together on a pot deal and they wanted to split up  their weed.

"I decided to cheat on my boyfriend because we were getting really serious and I got scared."

Long Distance Ruins Things...

"I ended up cheating on my boyfriend because I met a guy who looked like Johnny Depp. It was a one time thing."

"I once cheated on my boyfriend because I thought I told him we should go on a break. But I forgot to."

"I cheated on my boyfriend while I was on vacation because there were too many hot guys and I didn't want to have any regrets."

When You Realize You Had What You Were Looking For — Too Late

"I've cheated on my boyfriend because he didn't compliment me on my boobs enough."

"I ended up cheating on my boyfriend because he kept complimenting my friend at MY birthday party."

"My boyfriend refused to try new stuff in bed so I cheated on him. I can't live on vanilla sex alone..."

"I cheated on my boyfriend 4 times because the sex with him sucked."

"I decided to cheat on my boyfriend because he cheated on me. I don't regret it."

"I've cheated on my boyfriend a few times because he refuses to go down on me. Other guys have no problem with it."

like other bad behaviors that have to do with a lack of self-control, such as overeating, a gambling problem or overspending.

To avoid the anxiety people procrastinate. It makes them feel better for a while but usually comes back to bite them when they have to deal with the task.

This recurring problem escalates into procrastination.

If you break the problem task up into several small easy to swallow gulps it will be easier to complete.

It is actually easy to protect minors, as in most countries where online gambling is illegal, players are required to provide appropriate ID that will confirm that they are over 18.

Gambling is actually a very social activity and unless the person in question was anti-social even before they started gambling, there is no sign that gambling encourages people to become anti-social.

The states own and run lotteries, which advertise and encourage people to buy tickets. Tickets are not very expensive, but the prizes that can be won are.

What is that if not gambling? The same gambling that the government says is wrong.

But it is not wrong when it is organized by them, because then they get all the revenues from it and fill in the state coffers.

Sure there are people who are compulsive gamblers, but most people who enjoy playing casino games can control themselves, play only casually and don’t wager more than they can afford to lose.

After all if you dont have any money you cant afford to eat or pay your rent.

There always be haters, jealous people and those who will be envious of your looks, who you’re dating and the level of success you achieve in life.

Not everyone has to like you, and you shouldn’t even want everyone to for that matter. You should only want authentic, good people in your life who genuinely think you’re great.

The fact of the matter is, those types of people don’t have lives; they are consumed with hatred of themselves and envy of others.

Pick and choose the right friends and those to surround yourself with who won’t add any unnecessary drama and heartache into your life.

Really, it can mess up people’s whole days if they’re not very resilient or are sensitive types. We should all strive to be more loving and kind individuals, and we can all do our part by not being toxic ourselves.
