The alpha female of the matriarchal hyena has a clitoris the size of a males penis. Go figure......=0}

Now I have to wonder if alpacas evolved along these lines. THe male has a spiral penis and can move the tip and end somewhat like a finger. He has to navigate a similarly shaped cervix in the female. The uterus is pretty traumatized in the act of mating so I wonder if there is a reason for all that. THe females also run and spit on the males if they want nothing to do with them.

I wouldn't want anything to do with that either!

These bugs seem to live up to their name. I found the articles use of the word "now" to provoke intterest amusing.

"now it appears that the bugs are using gender-bending tactics to defend themselves."

"Now evolutionary biologist Klaus Reinhardt of the University of Sheffield in England has discovered that male bat bugs have developed their own versions of female paragenitals to avoid the assaults."
