Zombies and Sex...

[Footbutt]

something that has been irking me since i've heard it is that exchange between Lizzy and Riley about the Sweat Bottle Experiment and the playback video they watched. (Chapter 7 Pt 2)

the two women are watching what Lizzy had filmed...
and Riley says: "Stop! Right here, Look! They're drooling--like dogs."
Lizzy: "They do that; their hungry."
R: "Not like this, they're dripping onto the ground. I had a dog once who i didn't neuter and he did the same thing when he was around another dog in heat."
L: "It's something like the musk. Zombies and sex don't seem to go together, if you ask me."
R: "Sweat makes pheromones, and those bottles were filled with them, male and female. Attraction starts with their nose and seems to end with their teeth."

so what of it? is this just a passing conclusion or is there more to it? Do zombies revert to basic animal instinct? if they aren't hungry (at the time), then biting them is a result of a desire/need/instinct to Pro-Create?
(maybe their zombie 'bits' don't function anymore? sorry for the crassness)

if this is nothing new, i get it. it's not a 'game changer' but it has been bugging me how it was seemingly glossed over. but i can understand it just being the cause of the success of the sweat jars and nothing more.

I don't think anyone in their right mind would, lol.
Strangely enough I have also been pondering over the things like Ink and them possibly raping the humans to proceate. Though some peoples ideas on such matters a disgusting as I have found online. They say that zombies focus on their primal merges when they are changed and the ones my mind comes upper with as mammals primal erges are along the lines of these. Eat, drink, sleep, procreate(sex) and to play which could be connected to sex. Although yes, those with a higher immunity would be good people to procreate with. You'd likely get a higher classed creature from the mixture of genes.

Some of the last few posts about Michael and the behemoth made me flush. I felt really bad for him and you guys as well. It made me think , "What the fudge did I walk myself into?"

i agree. i'm also wondering about the Zombie End-Game.
say they turn everybody and get food for a while.
are they even capable of offspring? is it in their best interest to not kill everyone so there's people makin' babies somewhere?

This would explain why the zombie outbreak is something that hasn't been seen before. They cause there own extinction, then the original infection lie dormant until it can infect another species that is susceptible to it. It only infects humans this time around. If it was able to infect everything then all life would go extinct and so would the infection agent.

So maybe the last time this stuff was around the Earth had the "Permian Extinction"? Lots of theories about what caused it but no real question of IF it happened. Just HOW. Maybe Kc is putting his hat in the ring with a zombie organism/outbreak way back when...

Kinda fits in with the geological theories several have put forth (but none as good as Redshirt's, methinks)

Ok, sorry to derail the zombie sex thread....

Interesting that you should mention procreation. Seems like THAT'S how the infection procreate; via bites.

On a slightly different angle, I often wondered what Martin (The guy Kalani met in the arena) and Samantha meant by the zombies wanting to PLAY and HAVE FUN with their captives.

Ooh, what if Samantha is the birth mother of the little ones, and Ink is their father?!

If the sounds in the arena are to be believed, I don't think it's possible. I think if you go back and listen you'll hear the little ones milling about. I haven't been back in a long time so who knows if I'm right.
