Scientist reveals the surprising reason why human penises are so big

Humans have relatively large penises compared to other primates due to evolutionary adaptations related to bipedalism.

Run, Lucy, Run! Human Ancestors Could Jog but Not Very Far or Fast

Australopithecus afarensis had slower running speeds compared to modern humans, with unique muscular adaptations influencing locomotion.

The discovery that rewrote human evolution theory turns 50 DW 11/21/2024

Human evolution is more complex than a linear process.
The discovery of Lucy challenged previous notions of how bipedalism developed along with brain size.
Lucy demonstrated that the traits of bipedalism and brain size evolved independently.

Ancient footprints give clues about bipedalism

Ancient footprints in Kenya show two distinct human ancestors walked side by side, indicating complex evolution of bipedalism.

Why are women the only primates with enlarged breasts?

Breasts may have evolved as a sexual signal linked to human bipedalism, underpinning human attraction and cultural variation.

Humans evolved for distance running - but ancestor 'Lucy' didn't go far or fast

Ancient humans, like Australopithecus afarensis, were capable of running but at significantly slower speeds compared to modern humans, highlighting evolutionary differences.
