| Not quite true - dolphins do, but bonobos have sex as a social activity. If they see something new, if they're angry with each other, if they want to make amends... whatever it is, they pretty much have sex, but it's not recreational. | |

"The above claim is true for a very specific definition of "sex for pleasure," which in this case is copulation between the male and female of a species where such activity is completely separated from the purpose of fertilization." So for that specific definition, yes, you're right, but I don't think I'm alone in interpreting sex as a social tool (as in the case of bonobos) as neither sex for pleasure nor fertilisation. i.e. Your first post somewhat assumes that people will immediately associate 'sex for pleasure' with the Snopes definition, and I doubt that. I obviously didn't, and I thought I'd clarify, considering this is supposed to be a 'facts' thread, which implies that the information within is supposed to be accurate.
