[Fis] Emergence of Human Sexual Behaviour--some Fun

[Pedro C. Marijuán]

Dear Rainer & FIS Colleagues,

First, I would like to join our Chinese Colleagues in the Celebration of 
their New Year. The year of the Horse: *新年快乐 (Xīnnián kuàilè)*

And then I would like to ad some fun to the provocative hypothesis of 
Rainer on the evolution of female breast. It comes from a great movie:

"... this scene from It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World 
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://alligator-tunny-3mj4.squarespace.com/config/It's*20a*20Mad*20Mad*20Mad*20Mad*20World__;JSUlJSUl!!D9dNQwwGXtA!WFVu5YtDhZzbe0e_7mOB2Pt7JnW7MHh2IhYnE6n_cPg0KuCsp1MfjahpRzbtgplyPcZUTLkte8H-PEOkRlkp8unyo9Od$ > featuring 
Milton Berle (J. Russell Finch) and Terry-Thomas (J. Algernon 
Hawthorne) - it made me laugh and I ended up watching the rest of the film.

*J. Algernon Hawthorne*: I must say that if I had the grievous 
misfortune to be a citizen of this benighted country, I should be the 
most hesitant of offering any criticism whatever of any other.

*J. Russell Finch*: Wait a minute, are you knocking this country? Are 
you saying something against America?

*J. Algernon Hawthorne*: Against it? I should be positively astounded to 
hear anything that could be said FOR it. Why the whole bloody place is 
the most unspeakable matriarchy in the whole history of civilization! 
Look at yourself! The way your wife and her strumpet of a mother push 
you through the hoop!

As far as I can see, American men have been totally emasculated- they're 
like slaves! They die like flies from coronary thrombosis while their 
women sit under hairdryers eating chocolates & arranging for every 2nd 
Tuesday to be some sort of Mother's Day!

And this positively infantile preoccupation with bosoms. In all time in 
this wretched Godforsaken country, the one thing that has appalled me 
most of all this this preposterous preoccupation with bosoms.

Don't you realize they have become the dominant theme in American 
culture: in literature, advertising and all fields of entertainment and 
everything. I'll wager you anything you like that if American women 
stopped wearing brassieres, your whole national economy would collapse 
overnight."

The two characters are in a car, maintaining this bizarre dialogue while 
driving in the quest for a lost booty. Curiously in a previous scene 
there is another amazing dialogue about all the possible partitions of 
that booty among the different groups involved in the quest. Watch it!

Best wishes,

--Pedro
