Bonobo clitorises are larger and more externalized than in most mammals; [98] while the weight of a young adolescent female bonobo "is maybe half" that of a human teenager, she has a clitoris that is "three times bigger than the human equivalent, and visible enough to waggle unmistakably as she walks". [99]
The clitoris of bonobos is larger and more externalized than in most mammals; [15] Natalie Angier said that a young adolescent "female bonobo is maybe half the weight of a human teenager, but her clitoris is three times bigger than the human equivalent, and visible enough to waggle unmistakably as she walks". [16]
Extant primates exhibit a broad range of variation in sexual size dimorphism (SSD), or sexual divergence in body size. [4] It ranges from species such as gibbons and strepsirrhines (including Madagascar's lemurs) in which males and females have almost the same body sizes to species such as chimpanzees and bonobos in which males' body sizes are larger than females' body sizes.
Big and bright: Columbus Zoo ... As part of these efforts, the U.S. received two female bonobos from Europe in 2001 — one of them, Unga, found a permanent home in Columbus, and the other in ...
The clitoris of bonobos is larger and more externalized than in most mammals; [210] Natalie Angier said that a young adolescent "female bonobo is maybe half the weight of a human teenager, but her clitoris is three times bigger than the human equivalent, and visible enough to waggle unmistakably as she walks".

In Osmia rufa, for example, the female is larger/broader than males, with males being 8–10 mm in size and females being 10–12 mm in size. [29] In the hackberry emperor females are similarly larger than males. [30] The reason for the sexual dimorphism is due to provision size mass, in which females consume more pollen than males. [31]
Infants in bonobo societies are often involved in sexual behaviour. [78] Immature male bonobos have been recorded initiating genital play with both adolescent and mature female bonobos. Copulation-like contact between immature bonobo males and mature female bonobos increases with age and continues until the male bonobo has reached juvenile age.
