      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.

        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.
