      Social status seeking is a behaviour we share with chimps, so it probably dates back to at least our last shared ancestor, ~6-7 Mya. It’s observed in most social mammals, so maybe as far back as the rise of mammals like 66 Mya.

          No one’s first words are “goo goo gaa gaa I want to put my penis in your pussy” and for some reason humans still manage to figure that one out like 12 years later without explicitly being taught it.

          Just because something is not immediately apparent in a baby does not mean that it isn’t innate.

            the red flags are waving. Wtf do you mean TWELVE YEARS LATER? Side note, that too is pretty thoroughly taught by society, especially these days. And there are tons of people, particularly overly prudish religious couples, who dont figure it out and have to have someone explain to them which hole they are supposed to be trying.
