Answer to Question 1

Egyptians had sexual lives that do not seem all that different from the way humans engage in sex throughout the world today. although the Egyptians condemned adultery, it may still have been fairly common and women had the right to divorce husbands. Egyptians seem to have invented male circumcision, and Egyptian workers left behind thousands of pictures, carvings, and even cartoons of erotic scenes.

Answer to Question 2

Our ancestors began walking upright more than three million years ago. this evolution changed forever the way the human species engaged in sexual intercourse. the upright posture of the female resulted in the possibility of face-to-face intercourse. With more body area in contact, the female clitoris is much more easily stimulated. only in human females does orgasm seem to be an important part of sexual contact.
