I mean, listen. These species of insects, some of them are like, 99% male.
At some point it's just the practical approach.

That's a lot of sin earth is racking up. It's only a matter of time until god resets the planet.
Ornamental Tree Trunk spiders/Coin spiders bite off their own dick once it's over.
Hardcore.
Also there's a type of spider, can't remember which, that stabs its partner in the belly and then just chucks the sperm in there.
Some beetles have spiked penises entirely to accomplish this.
Also, some earwigs will also break off one of their penises and just leave it there.
Someone was having fun with that headline.
I guess insects are more enlightened about sex than we are. They probably kill their mates less often too.
So, what insect do you want to reincarnate as? Me, I want to be a dung beetle. Then I would have a ball to play with.

I assume the idea here is that bugs don't fuck for pleasure.
I'd say it's more "unintentional" since it's male insects drawn to female pheromones stuck to males that have recently mated. "Want" is probably too strong a word for insect sexual behavior.
I wonder how often there are insects drawn to pheromones from the same sex, though it would probably be selected against (evolutionarily) or more stricly controlled by sexual dimorphism.

So, it was the insects fault all along, all these storms and earthquakes and other natural disasters.
The one male is going down as a joke while the other male yells "brojob! brojob! Choochoo hahaha lololol"
Serious post do bugs have sex other than to procreate i assume that's why
Not just insects. I study nematode mating and the males spend half the time in a massive worm orgy with each other.
...It's honestly kinda frustrating.
I do have a theory that part of the reason it hasn't been evolutionarily selected against like in other species is because males that trace other males tend to find hermaphrodites more easily. Basically, bi advantage.

Sure it starts off as an innocent mistake but then you suddenly realize nothing turns you on like mothboys...
I highly appreciate any field of science where you can look up from a microscope and scowl, "damn, I've detected another orgy!"

Tbh it usually ends up being more like the "oh you" meme.
"Oh worms!" [hands on hips, looking at microscope in dismay]
There aren't many creatures out there that have sex for pleasure. Pretty sure the few that do are mammals.

At least you don't have to add any fluid when you're preparing your slide.
This is some godlike footage and commentary. He just fucking flips and flies away at the end oh god.

Nature is pretty weird.
There's a species of nematodes that reproduces exclusively by this method, though the females are weirdly into it. Like they help the males find the right spot and everything. I was trying to study it at one point, but they don't really grow very well in a lab environment and you have to catch them wild in Belgium.
