Why do primates that have been raised in isolation show mating problems?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Primates raised in isolation did not have the opportunity for sexual play or socialization with other members of their species, which can result in mating problems such as difficulty initiating mating behavior, lack of interest in mating, and inability to perform sexual behaviors correctly. Lack of socialization can also lead to sexual behavior problems, such as abnormal or same-sex behaviors. It is not necessarily true that they engaged in sexual play with other primates or faced abuse, and there is no evidence to suggest that they all have a decreased drive for sex.
