Yes it is fact that without teeth the mandible will atrophy.
You can quickly learn to spot people with no bottom teeth just by looking at their jaw.
I am a registered nurse that learned this from my orthodontist. I didn’t quite believe him at first but started noticing the jawline of my edentulous patients. They all had the same thin, flat jawline

Is this a racist joke about certain athletes?
yes, it is.
well spotted
Jokes about racism are just stupid and hateful... and probably shows that toms54 is suffering the lust and jealousy of never getting laid with a black woman lol.
Now who is being crude?
That was my response to your racist joke against black women. You are obviously harboring feelings toward black women lol. And that was my guess as to why you're obsessed with black women lol.
I did not create that page but I did point it out. How do you draw anything sexual from this? Nothing in my post was sexual in any way so I'm left to conclude this is your problem. I stand by my remark. Your post was crude.
Well I stand by my remark too. You injected racist insults against black women into a conversation that has nothing to do with black women, or even women in general. Yes that sounds like you're harboring resentments against black women, and that stands as my guess why you're resentful of them.
Are you going to argue that you have a valid reason to resent black women, and insult them in unrelated conversations?

I never mentioned women at all. I said here's another one. Search....
You're coming up with all this women stuff out of nowhere.

Yes, I’m aware of the experiments to see if human sperm can penetrate the eggs of other apes. It’s why I was able to say “with the exception of the Gibbon”. I’m an anthropologist and follow a lot of work outside my own area. This was one of the experiments I’ve read about. I’ll try to find the journal article.
Is this the paper ?
"Human spermatozoa display unusually limited affinities in their interaction with oocytes of other species. They adhered to and, when capacitated, penetrated the vestments of the oocyte of an ape‐the gibbon, Hylobates lar‐ both in vivo and in vitro.
On the other hand, human spermatozoa would not even attach to the zona surface of sub‐hominoid primate (baboon, rhesus monkey, squirrel monkey), nor to the non‐primate eutherian oocytes tested. Among the apes the gibbon stands furthest from man. Thus, although the specificity of human spermatozoa is not confined to man alone, it probably is restricted to the Hominoidea.
This study also suggests that the evolution of man and perhaps the other hominids has been accompanied by a restrictive change in the nature of the sperm surface which has limited and made more specific the complementary surface to which their spermatozoa may adhere.
For the failure of human spermatozoa to attach to the zona surface of all non‐hominoid oocytes stands in contrast to the behaviour of spermatozoa of the several other mammals studied which, in most combinations, adhered readily to foreign oocytes, including those of man.
Taxonomically, the demonstration of a compatibility between the gametes of man and gibbon, not shared with cercopithecids, constitutes further evidence for inclusion of the Hylobatidae within the Hominoidea."

I thought the whole meaning of your post was that you were calling the Williams tennis players (i.e. black women) monkeys?
Wasn't that what you were saying? Or is this a complete misunderstanding?
The mod's took down your post so I wasn't the only one to think that's what you were saying...

I saw the search on another site then came here and posted because of the hybrid ape theme. I don't own Google and didn't create the page. All I thought of was that Google has done this before. You are ascribing all these bizarre motivations not according to anything I posted but for some reason that is only real in your mind.

Yep, you seem to be spot on.
A quick google query shows that Oliver was toothless for most of his life and that his odd facial features were a direct result.
After decades of mystery, Oliver's identity had finally been uncovered, exposed by his genes. But what of his external idiosyncrasies? Fly and Moore's paper contained some eye-opening information dating back to the 1970s, but which was presumably not sensational enough to attract the interest of the media and thus had not previously received publicity.
For instance, although media accounts had noted that Oliver was toothless (his teeth had been pulled), they had not revealed that primatologist Dr Clifford Jolly had examined Oliver as long ago as 1976. Jolly found that the reason why Oliver did not share the strikingly prognathous (projecting) jaw line of other chimps was due to resorption of the alveolar bone, plus a shortened maxilla and premaxilla (upper jaw bones), and underdeveloped temporal musculature. Jolly had concluded that these features were in turn caused by Oliver's toothless condition. He also concluded that Oliver's habitual bipedal gait was due to conditioning.
As for Oliver's cranial morphology, ear shape, freckles and baldness, these were nothing more than individual variations, well within the range of variability exhibited by the common chimpanzee - a species that presents, in the words of primatologist Prof. W.C. Osman Hill: "a bewildering variety of individual variations".

Unless you have testing that refutes their findings.
Then we must accept what has been presented.

You don't have proof of that.
