This cute little creature must have caught a video or two of mine, because fruit bats apparently enjoy oral sex! Female Chinese fruit bats give their mates blowjobs to prolong sex and apparently aid in conception by improving the sperm flow. Scientists say that they also might be preventing the spread of STI by licking away bacteria. I didn’t know bats could get STIs… I’m imagining little bat free clinics giving away little bat condoms.
Asides from primates, they are the first in the animal kingdom to be documented routinely giving oral sex, but they believe that it’s evolutionary… So maybe the rest of the critters will catch on eventually. I don’t want to see it, but I guess if it’s good for the population of endangered species, it’s a good thing, right?
You can read the full article here. Thanks to Will for the heads up. No pun intended. ;)

Thanks for posting the article Camille. Of course you would find the cutest bat picture to go with it.
There is one question this research didn’t address which I think merits further study.
Do the girl bats who give blowjobs attract more mates?
I have no clue whether bats remember their mating partners but if they do, I’d bet good money that the girls who do a little something extra get a lot more action!
It seems to work for human girls, why not bat girls?
Haha! I hope that there wouldn’t be any batslut-shaming!
They should really find a way to incorporate this information into the forthcoming Batman film… I mean, it *is* called “The Dark Knight Rises,” after all. Maybe a nice little “Bat-job” would help dispel the caped crusader’s moodiness?
By the way, the idea that blowjobs are an inevitable evolutionary health benefit is incredibly awesome. I have to figure out a way to make that into a pick-up line….
Haha, that is hilarious! And if you can work it into a pick-up line, I’ll be impressed!
Cal, I have struggled for many days to craft such a pick-up line. I have failed. As prose laureate of Camille’s blog, all hope now rests upon you.
I love how my blog is like a country in that respect. You’re all ambassadors of beautiful porn!
I want a passport and a special little “Beautiful Porn” flag for the front of my ambassadorial car.
It’s totally true, though, in the most serious way— we ARE all ambassadors for beautiful lovemaking and open-minded sexual awareness. Every time we get in bed with someone or recommend a TAOB video, we’re representing the Democratic Republic of Boomchickawawa.
!Viva la revolucion! (Sorry, Camille, I learned Spanish, not French.)
Haha, that is awesome!
Oh, I also just realized that this week marks the one-year anniversary of my last relationship breakup, which means it’s been a year since I’ve had any form of sex that didn’t involve my own hands— and yet, thanks to TAOB and this blog, this has been one of the sexiest years of my whole life! Thanks, Camille and Mike (and Sophie!).
I’m sure you’ll find the right one soon enough, Cal! You’re definitely a catch. But I’m glad to entertain in the meantime.
If we are indeed citizens of Camille’s Oral Sex Republic and we stand united under the banner of Beautiful Porn, this has got to be the greatest nation ever
conceived…
Ok, now we need a National Anthem…ideas?
Something you can hum when your mouth is otherwise engaged.
Or it could be something you whistle… as Lauren Bacall once said to Humphrey Bogart, “You know how to whistle, don’t you? You just put your lips together and… blow.”
Haha, blow.
