Ok, look.

We humans are descended from monkeys, yes? Monkeys have tails but the higher apes, Gorillas, Chimps and us dont.

Now, tails are used for balance and are pre-hensile in some animals, for climbing.

Thing is... the thing is, we`re bipedal, and the only ape to stand erect, and we dont have tails for balance. Two legged dinosaurs had tails for balance so why dont we?

I want you to imagine the world if man HAD kept hold of his tail (Ohhh Matron!) instead of losing it as he evolved.

What would the world be like today? What would WE be like today?

Imagine a three foot length (Ohhh MATRON!) of skin coloured flesh hanging from the base of our spines. Would it be like the rest of our body? Would ginger people have lots of little coloured hairs all over it? Blondes have little blonde hairs all over it and so on...?

Would ladies shave it like they do their legs? Would they have to by a Taily shave? Would tights have three tubes instead of one for each leg?

Where would we put it if we sat down? What about bike riders? cycle clips for the trousers and a tail clip to hold it against a leg or something so that it didnt get caught in the chain or gears?

Would we have little holes in the backs of trousers for the tail to poke out of? I mean WHAT?!?!?


For the love of god HELP me with this!!! Put it all into perspective for me!

I don't post here very often but your posts Jabberwocky, are by far the more bizarre (but hilarious!) ones I've ever seen!!

No humans did not descend from monkeys.
It is thought that humans and other primates all descended from some undiscovered ape like ancient species.
All the monkeys, apes, gorillas etc.. Have evolved alongside each other over many thousands of years.

Im glad you like `em!

I just tried to glue a length of hose onto my arris- I was going to paint it pink but the other half slapped me and told me to grow up!

Yeah but in the fossil record, the common ancestor had a tail.


I demand a tail!




Damn, that last bit looked bad,, there goes my rep

DAMN just thought of something!

Would posh people have their kids tails docked?

There was a medieval myth to the effect that Kentish men had tails (even Chaucer mentions it)

I once knew a woman who can only be said to have had an Extended Coxyyx. She had a lump at the base of her spine that looked like a rudimentary tail, it put me right off of her too.

(Not until Id had her first though )

I think that condition is known medically

if we descended from monkeys, why are there still monkey on the earth? why didnt they evolve into humans too?

Was it any different with her ?:cool:

Well it scared the HELL out of me! I was drunk at the time and at first I thought shed pooed herself.


Of course, that only turned me on more...

Apart from swinging by her tail from the light fitting she was perfectly normal.

so--thereby hangs a tail?

Because we`re a branch of the primate family, we were destined to evolve and Monkeys are too specialised.



My GOD I sounded clever then :D

She hung on mine and-- ... family forum.....
