Never understood why only the human lineage should have made such evolutionary progress while the rest of the hominid family did not. For example, why haven't chimps and gorillas lost their baculum over the last 8 million years but our dicks have tripled?

Never understood why only the human lineage should have made such evolutionary progress while the rest of the hominid family did not. For example, why haven't chimps and gorillas become bipedal over the last 8 million years while our muscles have become weak and woosy?

"Evolutionary progress" is a non-sequitur.
