Centipedes Don't Fuck
(mander.xyz)
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Sooo are centipedes like fruit flies and not engage in any real form of sexual selection, or is the female going around judging the fuck out of every jizz pile she encounters?
"Mmm-mm, look at that poor viscosity, obviously from a low-quality male. This one on the other hand: deep color, firm texture, nice and sticky... clearly produced by a male with the superior genes I want to pass along to my offspring."
I'm upset no ones chimed in with a really technical breakdown and linked some studies
I am tempted to research it but I don't want to be on another list
So, this is off topic, but it's so wild I had to include it:

I'm running out of time to find real husbandry, but I imagine it's a rather hands-off affair
Whattt. That is absolutely wild. Well now I have to learn more.
Centipedes are all perfect beings and need no selection
Or just slip in it like a banana peel and boom pregnant
