Comments on: SURVIVAL of the FRIENDLIEST https://drsusanblock.com/survival-of-the-friendliest Dr. Susan Block's Journal Sat, 24 Aug 2024 05:45:30 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.5 By: Rich Biggly https://drsusanblock.com/survival-of-the-friendliest#comment-306478 Wed, 21 Aug 2024 04:01:11 +0000 https://drsusanblock.com/?p=96155#comment-306478 Dr. Suzy has a point regarding the key differences between survival of the fittest vs the friendliest. And what’s beautiful about it is that it doesn’t completely discount the points made in the traditional argument. It’s true that the more clever and physically fit of a species tend to be the ones who not only survive the most, but amass the resources necessary to separate them from their biological peers. But, in the case of human beings, it’s hard to remain at the top when no one wants to listen to or follow your lead. So understanding how to effectively communicate is an integral skill to develop if you want any form on success as a human being, even if the communication is more shrewd. It’s always fascinating to learn how the bonobos influence Dr. Suzy’s perspective on life and love, and I’m happy to be on the team. #GoBonobos!

You can learn a lot about loyalty from Dogs. Then learn about love through Bonobos. Leave it to Dr. Suzy and her expert guests to show us how the Animal Kingdom can help us get in touch with our Humane side.

Absolutely love the interview, the enlightened perspectives. The brilliant hot couple. Your gorgeous face, soothing voice, hypnotic eyes! This bonobo fan is grateful to have you as a thought leader, and beautiful addition to my spank bank. Moreover, never before have I been informed about this factual data validating higher kindness and interdependence as the keys to survival. Highly encouraged at the time such news is most needed.

Wonder why they don’t. Probably because of all the sex.

I’ve been hearing your talk about the Bonobo Way for years, but this intense chat with two of the top primatologists, wow. Nice to see Pomeranian Chico also take a starring role. And what a great relevant message: Friendliness wins.

So much interesting info, my head is spinning. Thank You for spreading the Bonobo Word so that non-scientists like me can get it. What the world needs now is more Bonobo Way & less Trumpanzee. Love Vanessa and Brian. I know they adopt dogs, but could they adopt me?

I especially enjoyed learning about how wolves/dogs evolved to be friendly with humans. And how the bonobos live and thrive by being friendly and accepting newcomers and being curious about them. This stems from love and not fear (chimpanzees). “Survival of the fittest” IS “survival of the friendliest” – perhaps one in the same – it is the “fittest” EQ – emotional intelligence.

Unfriendly males don’t get much opportunity to sire offspring. This is an excellent example of Law of Attraction allowed to work unencumbered. Dr Suzy and her guests cover some deep and far reaching points about what humans can learn about cooperation and fun from our closest cousins. I enjoyed the candor of the interview. We can all learn a few tips from the Bonobos!

Thanks for giving a new perspective on what “Survival of the Fittest” means. “Survival of the Friendliest” is much more satisfying.

I love your passion for talking about bonobos and learning from primatologists! In today’s world, we need to learn that FRIENDLINESS really does improve life quality. Nice folks finish first.
