Postcopulatory sexual selection influences baculum evolution in primates and carnivores: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/full/10....
Postcopulatory sexual selection influences baculum evolution in primates and carnivores | Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
The extreme morphological variability of the baculum across mammals is thought to
be the result of sexual selection (particularly, high levels of postcopulatory selection).
However, the evolutionary t...

The evolution of masturbation is associated with postcopulatory selection and pathogen avoidance in primates | Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
Masturbation occurs throughout the animal kingdom. At first glance, however, the fitness
benefits of this self-directed behaviour are unclear. Regardless, several drivers
have been proposed. Non-funct...
