"the cost of buying sex would drop dramatically -- a male could "buy" a female for just eight minutes of nit-picking."

what is the cost of coitus from one's mate when there is a religious taboo against coitus outside of marriage as well as legal punishment (alimony/child support)?

astronomically high, if obtainable at all.

Eight minutes of grooming is really not a bad price.

If I ever start a band it will be called Cost of Coitus.

That would be close to my band name, Coitus Interruptus and The Screaming Brats

I just got done reading a book about ape sex. It's an extremely interesting topic. I gave a presentation a couple months ago in which I talked about obstetrics being the oldest profession, but I'm not so sure after learning what various primates will do for sex.
