- 2005-01-28 Monkeys Pay to See Female Monkey Bottoms: yes, this is actually relevant to autism. Monkeys also "pay" to see pictures of higher-ranking males, and have to be "paid" to view pictures of lower-ranking males – even without having met the males in the pictures – they are somehow determining rank simply from looking at the picture. This has implications in the field of autism, because autistic people show a marked lack of interest in looking at other people at all, much less in deriving information about social rank and other related attributes.
