This implies that there's some sort of evolutionary advantage to getting sloppy seconds. I don't know how I feel about that.

Well, do you think women consent was at thing back in the early days of homo sapiens?
Consider that one of our two closest ape relatives is the bonobo. They settle arguments with head jobs, ask for favours the same way
We're clearly not as bad as ducks
Ok what's happening, it's the second reply to this 7 months old comment that I get this week
I sort by new comments, so this thread would have appeared in my feed because that previous person commented in it
i mean yeah, if your tribe goes around raping other tribes' women that's going to get everyone you know and love put on the "kill on sight" list.
Look at how you're sorting things, this comment you're replying to is 7 months old
bro 7 months is fucking nothing on the internet, people reply to 7 year old comments all the time. This is a forum not a chat
Sorry bro but this is a Reddit like platform, not an old school forum, people don't care about 7 months old posts... Hell they don't care about a 2 days old post.
Ok what’s happening, it’s the second reply to this 7 months old comment that I get this week
and yet you had to say this, so clearly people do care about old posts, and you're the odd one out.
The only reason being that you resurrected the conversation for them by replying to me.
The vast majority sorts by "all top 6h" so no, I'm not the odd one out and you'll notice it if you start paying attention to the age of the comments you're replying to.
well then tough shit i guess, you'll just have to accept that no one else gives a shit what you think.
And no one gives a shit about people who reply to 7 months old comments.
Have a good life.
Yes I do. Do I think every sex was consensual? No. Do I think at least 1% of women had at one point consented to sex? Yes.

Huh... This whole time I've just been using my tongue.
There's some thought that this is also the reason for the shape of the human penis

Which really makes you think, shouldn't longer-penised individuals have an reproductive advantage over short-penised people? Longer penises can scoop deeper in the couchhole to get out other people's jizz. Why hasn't the human race evolved such that every male had 20 cm (7.8 in) penises?
Long dicks hurt shallow vagina girls. You want a dick that exactly fits your girl
Girls you hurt aren't going to be willing to fuck you in future
We kind of have. Human penises are waaaay bigger than those of other primate species, and many other mammals (relative to overall body size).

Oh dear, no one tell him he got the short end of the genes..
Joking, of course.
I would assume penises didn’t need to evolve to be that long on average since vaginas are not that deep on average? So there would only be so much depth to reach in the first place. Possibly girth would also affect it - having a long noodle dick might mean no matter how deep you go, the penis might not be wide enough to effectively “scoop” it out.
Again assuming, but after a certain length (bottoming out), width would become more important
The longer the penis, the larger the fraction of women who will find sex with that person painful, and at some point the reproductive advantage of scooping out others' semen will be nullified due to the fact that no woman wants to sleep with you. I think I read that four inches is the length that most women find comfortable, but I don't remember where I read it.

And I was having such a good day too. Why would you do this to me?
What's wrong? Did you want your lady dragonflies to be filled with someone else's jizz?
I learned about this from a book I really enjoyed called Nature's Nether Regions. The part about spiders was pretty weird as well.
