Reply to comment by cwood1973 in TIL scientists believe people started wearing clothes between 83k and 170k years ago because that's when clothing lice diverged from head lice. by cwood1973
Silly question, but wouldn’t gorilla’s be far to dangerous and unpredictable to try to breed with?

I hate that I know this but I think I remember a national geographic article about a "brothel" which included an adolescent, shaved female orangatang somewhere. I feel gross just typing that out

Her name is Pony and she was rescued from the brothel in 2003.
It's easy to look up more details about what she was forced to go through, but I'd rather share a link that instead focuses on her recovery afterward: https://www.orangutan.or.id/update-on-pony

Whoa, like a modern brothel? Yikes imagine the waiver you have sign to go in there.

My sad understanding from watching the documentary was that she was trained to just get in position and take it if a male approached her :(. That probably means she was beaten a lot to get to that point or taken at a young age.

Fucking yikes. That’s enough hearing that.

Every time I start to have faith in humanity again I hear a story like this. I'm glad she's recovering. I hope the men that put her through that get castrated and fed to the lions.

I dunno really. I don't want to know. I think it was probably in a slum somewhere that orangatangs are found in the wild. There was probably no waiver, you just pay your cash and you takes your ugh chances

Grim as fuck.

Yeah these guys are out here fucking orangutans and signing waivers...
They probably donate to their local charities right after

There is only 1 reason why anyone would be caught sleeping in a gorilla nest....

Your grandma was a nice lady. Don't put that on her.
