What is a coccyx good for?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Coccyx: Some believe that the coccyx is the vestigial or remaining tail from our ancestors in evolution. It probably does not serve any function at present.

Good loving: It provides the back-end attachment of the deep muscles of the pelvis. They do a lot of really helpful things, especially during love-making. The coccyx isn't a high-profile, glamor organ but without it, life wouldn't be so good.
