Wow.

You've exceeded yourself, Jukebox. This was perfect. I learnt so many things even as I was lost in your story.

I love the idea of sex addiction as an evolutionary adaptation. Masterful.

Amazing! This story deserves a follow up!

Dang Jukebox! I know you don’t do series very often, but I’d love to see this story develop further. Thanks for the great read!

This is terrific! And a great base for a series?

I hope you'll continue it, in the fashion of your Girl series

Individual animals don’t adapt to their environments

Mutation happens randomly and not because of environmental pressure.

Good adaption to the environment increases an organism’s chance to reproduce and pass on their genes to the next generation. As a result the species adapts to the environment, even though the individual don’t. Because again, they only change through random mutations.

I personally don’t mind stories based on fictional science but it would have been good if there had been a disclaimer.

triplerip (below), work in epigenetics show that genetic adaption can occur in the individual, and actually passed on. You can have adaptive changes to the expression and activities of your genes due to variablesyou are exposed to. Hit up wikipedia: "epigenetics"

So the author of this piece is not off. Also advances in technology will enable hacking of both genes themselves, and directed epigenetic activity after people are born. The billions of years of crude hit or miss evolution is about to change to directed evolution and our descendent/replacements will think of prior evolutionary method as profoundly primative.

Sex, drugs and world domination what a concept.

Great story. Enough science to make it believable and sex to keep my lizard brain happy. I did Google your science references just to be sure I followed the theory. I appreciate you and your Muse's intelligence and imagination and your abilities to bring them together to create a sexy story. Thank you for sharing your vision and talents.

Good concept and fun to read. Takes the reader on a journey with a good sci-fi vibe. Whether the science works or not.
