Settle down there sparky
1. I agree their brain chemistry looks different. What conclusion drawn from that is proven tho?
2. "No special conditioning", really? How could you possibly rule out social conditioning entirely. How old were the monkeys before being studied? How long were they in captivity before the idea to study this came about? What was the behavior of the handlers who were with them? How many monkeys? Were other factors like color, smell, texture ruled out? What kind of food were they given? Did they sleep well? Were they being studied for anything else at the time which could have influenced the study?
No doubt, its neat that monkeys tended to do this. But you're trying to say that it proves "boys will be boys" by nature, and you'd be hard pressed to prove so
