I thought the theory was we’re from both? We got the sex desire from bonobos and the aggression from chimps? I’m not well versed so I admit I could be very wrong
Chimps also have sex for fun, I don’t know about frequency. What sets bonobos apart from chimps and humans is that they use sex for conflict resolution. If humans or chimps have a territorial dispute, then it’s going to lead to a violent war. If bonobos have a territorial dispute, then they usually sex it out (somehow, I don’t know how they decide who comes out on top, if someone has to come out on top that is, maybe post nut clarity is enough to convince everyone that it’s not worth the fuzz).
I only know one instance in human history where (maybe) something similar happened: Richard Lionheart and Philip of France.

It’s unlikely that we directly descend from any extant ape species, but rather that we share an extinct common ancestor.
