Female Beetles Are Filthy, Fellating Sluts

Posted by John Brownlee

greenbug2.jpgFemale beetles are my kind of girl…

Female beetles mate to quench their thirst according to new research by a University of Exeter biologist. The males of some insect species, including certain types of beetles, moths and crickets, produce unusually large ejaculates, which in some cases can account for around 10% of their body weight. The study shows that dehydrated females can accept sexual invitations simply to get hold of the water in the seminal fluid.

My local pub is also filled with beetle-like floozies who also mate to parch their terrible, alcoholic thirst. I wonder: if I were to follow them back to the filthy, disused men’s lavatory in exchange for a beer, as they so often invite, whether their flab would gooily part, revealing the carabace of the Metamorphoses like insect underneath.

    Oh man - I was eating a slice of pizza when I read this. I can’t finish it now.
    Just the visual of some sloppy whore peeling back her gobs of flesh to reveal her true insect self to me. I can only pray the encounter would end with her biting my head off, literaly.

    “In contrast, the male of the red-back spider from Australia, in order to get close enough to the female’s genital opening, must throw himself directly beneath her jaws, essentially committing suicide in the process of mating.”

    Well that’s just cool. Thanks.

    Reading this reminded me of the Khepri from China Mieville’s Perdido Street Station (and other Bas-Lang based books) - Heads of scarab beetles, hot female bodies, the males mate with them through the tops of their heads…yummy.
