Bonobos do not, in fact, have concealed ovulation. However, vervet monkeys do. See also this paper, which points out that (for humans, at least), ovulation is concealed not just from potential mates, but also from the females themselves.

interesting. I'll have to track down more of his work. the primary mystery remains the mechanism. via which human females, alone among mammals ( bonobos possibly excluded) evolved to cloak the external indications that a propitious time for fertilization was at hand. ,

I think we may, without being reductionist, trace the Pashtun pathology to the fear of an unbridled and uncontrolled female sexuality that Freud warned us of( if obliquely ). Hidden estrus and the resultant male cuckold anxiety underlies more craziness than is casually understood, cf. the chastity belt, which ( not coincidentally ) locked that p---y down.

No. PP, you're not living up to your standards. You started with a pure, significant post about the protection of women. It was great. I wish you could have stuck with your premise without veering off toward slang offensive to women (okay, me). You didn't. So be it.
