March 31, 2007: Panda porn



Axlrosen sent the full story and 20minutos.es daily gallery has the shot of this, Chuang Chuang the panda, who has been watching panda porn on a big screen television for days and days. Tapes of pandas getting it on. Because Chuang himself isn't taking to the concept, and they hope he'll figure it out by watching.

Quote:
"Chuang Chuang seems indifferent to the videos; he has no reaction to what he's seeing on TV," Kanika said. "But we're continuing to show him videos and hoping they will leave an impression."
Maybe he's gay, and they're showing him the wrong tapes. More likely pandas take in information differently than people, and the images he sees are so obviously NOT pandas that the whole thing doesn't matter to him.

We see television images as representations and can make that extra step to understand that what we're seeing is a moving image of something else, but that's a pretty complicated process. The animals I've known have not been able to process non-moving pictures, never mind moving ones. My dog doesn't care what's on TV, until the audio is meaningful - something barks - which is a more realistic representation of another dog, to her.

Our brains are set up to recognize patterns and to associate them with the abstract concept of what we are looking at; instead of saying this is a picture of UT, you might just say this is UT and the complicated process that got you from one notion to the other is so quick you don't consider it.

This obviously leads to Magritte's "This is not a pipe", actually titled "The Treachery of Images". But I don't want to digress too much further.

I've heard of "typical male" pandas before. Maybe some of them really are gay. Or incredibly fucking lazy.

Maybe he's just not attracted to the ladies they bring him.

Maybe he's into roll playing. Try dressing the lady panda as a kangaroo and see if it helps.

Then again, maybe he just prefers to Panda-handle things himself.

Maybe he just needs a live demonstration.

Maybe he just wants his woman to use Dynadouche.

That panda is obviously gay. I'm getting horny myself just seeing the picture of panda porn. He should be sporting wood by now, what with him bein' a panda 'n' all.

I'm betting he likes it in the bamboo chute.

maybe the reason he's not gettin' it on is because he's locked up in a cage. i bet if he was out in the wild, he'd be doin' it with all the lady pandas.

It seems the Chinese have breeding farms where they're artificially inseminating Pandas because they are so slow on the uptake.

The fact is, female pandas are bitchy and cantankerous 51 weeks out of the year. They're in heat for one week. So, what's a poor male panda to make of that? Sound like any other species? They need to take him to a bar and get him drunk.

Evolutionarily speaking, it makes no sense that pandas are so unwilling/incapable of breeding. I can't get my head around how this would come about. I should ask one of my biology teachers after Easter. Damn pandas making me doubt my understanding of evolutionary theory.
