A sex guide for all living things and a hilarious natural history in the form of letters to and answers from the preeminent sexpert in all creation.
Dr. Tatiana's Sex Advice to All Creation is a unique guidebook to sex. It reveals, for example, when necrophilia is acceptable and who should commit bestiality with whom. It discloses the best time to have a sex change, how to have a virgin birth, and when to eat your lover. It also advises on more mundane matters -- such as male pregnancy and the joys of a detachable penis.
Entertaining, funny, and marvelously illuminating, the book comprises letters from all creatures worried about their bizarre sex lives to the wise Dr. Tatiana, the only sex columnist in creation with a prodigious knowledge of evolutionary biology. Fusing natural history with advice to the lovelorn, blending wit and rigor, she is able to reassure her anxious correspondents that although the acts they describe might sound appalling and unnatural, they are all perfectly normal -- so long as you are not a human. In the process, she explains the science behind it all, from Darwin's theory of sexual selection to why sexual reproduction exists at all. Applying human standards to the natural world, in the end she reveals the wonders of both.

作者认为,所有的雄性和雌性生物,包括我们人类,都始终围绕着性行为在进行博弈,总是试图通过性行为去控制对方,最终使自己获利。雄性生物大多是为了自己的基因能得以延续而这样做,因为它们无法保证和雌性生物所抚养的后代一定有自己的基因。雌性虽然没有这个问题,但却需要...
评分P6. 这种“男人花心、女人忠诚”的假设(客气的说法是贝特曼法则)从本质上来说就是错的。在绝大多数动物种群中,雌性是荡妇。她们绝非一生只交配一次,而是会和多个雄性发生关系,因为这会使得受孕几率更高。而雄性的控制欲与嫉妒心,也是出于对雌性放荡行为的反制目的。 P10...
评分刚看到这个书的名字的时候,以为是都市爱情题材,讲都市男女现代分工,辣妈或者奶爸之类的。看完之后,赵忠祥老师的男中音一直在耳边盘旋:“春天到了,动物们又到了交配的季节。” 正如腰封上写的推荐一样,阅读起来,会让你有恐怖级的发现感和妙趣阅读体验。毕...
评分很有趣的书,语言很风趣,对于动物行为的分析很深入。另外,里面提到的千奇百怪的物种也让人大开眼界,生物的多样化是我们极其重要的财富。 雄性获取雌性的方法有很多种:暴力争斗、偷偷摸摸、加入帮派等等,这些和人类社会如出一辙。大块头和小个子的对比也很有意思。 雌性会...
