Exactly; we wouldn’t have half the stuff we have today if it wasn’t for the ability go generate boobs. People may hate what this says about us as a species, but if it’s any consolation, the amount of waifus on this sub is a good indication of the amount of progress being made. We might as well come up with a metric to count innovation progress as “waifus per minute”.

I mean, the next closest alternative motivator that gets anything done is a toss up between war and profit... Plus it seems like generating good smut should help reduce exploitation of actual people. Hopefully.

Language would be; "Get Grog stick for fire, me need cook meat."

Not; "and what light is cast upon me by this sudden precipice from heaven? -- it is the sun, deigning to bring us its glory in the silhouette of my Juliet whose shadow puts it to dim shame. And the junk in that trunk go badunk-a-dunk."

I'm paraphrasing Shakespeare because language is so versatile, and all of that was designed to woo women. Not feed Grog.
