    Casual sex […] has no survival value

    I wonder how many people less of our species were on earth w/o casual sex. It doesn’t have survival value for one personally, though.

      I have no education on this matter but I’m going to confidently say at least 1/8 of the planet. 1/5 of the western world, and asia, I’d say 1/3

      Depends on what you count as casual sex. People grow emotionally more attached to friends with benefits than to strangers too and might help them in a tough situation over a stranger or mere acquaintance.
