Swordfighting to see who gets to top, ill allow it
I thought we were all doing this? My partner told me everyone does this
I feel the need to inform you that not all humans have penises.
True, but such a shame.
But they could
"7.1 c)
If players lack equipment they will be provided with equipment"
I've had several nights like this. Oh no! I lost again! 🥹
ahh so genital jousting is derived from nature
"Male" Sorry? They are Hermaphrodites. Not Male or Female.
Gotta shove the gender normativity in there somehow
that was what wigged you out? not the genital jousting to achieve sexual domination over another?
not the phallic whacking. that part is fine. that's just normal tuesdays.
Meanwhile I'm over here like
Genital jousting: no probs, carry on
Their coloring: wtf that can't be natural, gotta be digitally enhanced, no way these oil slick looking mfers actually that rainbow irl
But that is a thing though, while them being male isn't. They're pointing out a factual error, not saying "This detail made me go yuck most".
How have you managed to not understand this?
"How have you managed to not understand this?"
I am sorry that you are taking this seriously. i meant it to be a light joke. i wanted to write the phrase 'genital jousting'.
i know they're not males. most people who look them up using a search engine know that as well. just trying to have fun.
Yeah, this isn't news to me that this is a thing. Saw articles on this ~ 20 years ago. Complete with grainy images of the tiny flatworms "fencing".
Was weird then. Got used to the idea since. Worse to me is some of parasites like toxoplasma gondii that just get to rewrite what smells you like so that they can get back into a cat.
is this the animal from which college kids evolved from
lets his opponent win
Oh no! Guess you have to inseminate me! Dang it! 😩
Foreplay.
"Loser"
I wish this upon all self proclaimed alpha males
tapeworms just "do themselves" to make fertilized eggs.
"See babe I told you phallus fencing is a very natural thing!"
Is that what a flatworm looks like?
I would not describe that as flat. It looks like some kind of dragon imo.
