Why does a human female's vagina point forwards, not back, as it does in quadrapeds.
The vagina of a quadrapedal female is at the back, a little below the tail. This is presumably
because it is easier for a quadrapedal male to mount her from behind/slightly on top. With human
females the vagina has moved forwards. The cervix still points in the direction of a backward
vagina, no doubt a left over from a quadrapedal ancestor. However, this introduces a lot of problems
for humans giving birth, as it requires a baby to turn an angle of 45 degrees.
Why did humans evolve that way? Such an adaption causing such problems, must have had a big
evolutionary advantage. What was it?

[moderator's note: Ahem. - JAH]
the female human vagina having "moved forwards" this presents no difficulty in the human male
mounting her when she is on all fours. Considering how many humans are on earth I see no signifigant
problems for humans giving birth. Also, human females can give birth a variety of ways: doggy style,
standing up, sideways, in the water, etc.
