      pretty sure at least some animals are aware of the connection which makes me think humans intuitively understood it before anatomically modern humans existed

      do you have a source for this? it seems intuitive to me that it would be true, but I haven't looked for specific evidence

      vaguely recall stallions on horse herds will kill offspring of other males to bring mares back into heat which suggests they understand the connection

      there are definitely instincts that govern how we and other animals choose mates. not sure that constitutes evidence that we instinctually understand the relationship btw sex and reproduction

      actually, the studies re: women choosing more masculine guys around ovulation and that response being blunted with birth control, without conscious appraisal, makes me wonder how conscious this all is

          either way, there is a definite evolutionary advantage to being attracted to mates with completely different MHC alleles than you

          I'm very willing to believe that those are bullshit. there are other studies that show preference based on MHC/genetic dissimilarity that I find more believable but would have to look into more (hopefully/theoretically after next wed when I turn in residency applications)

          What about the ones showing that strippers make more money around their ovulation? Pheromones are a real thing
