Thanks, but books take time.. and there's so much to write about on the opposite sex alone.. nevermind the actual interaction between the two.. and something I personally find more interesting; "why" this dynamic exists.. so it would be impossible for me to finish a complete book.. what would end up happening, would be an incomplete book, with my name on it.. killing my dating life.. and disappointing the readers.. a no-win/no-win situation..

While we're on the topic.. I was watching the Discovery Channel the other day.. (yes, I might not get Playboy, but I get the Discovery Channel in HD).. and it was showing the mating rituals of fish in Japan..

Two fish stuck with me:

- Sandfish
- Kobe dai (very rare fish about a meter long, where the males are white, and females are black.. only three males have been seen in Japan.. the largest being "Ben Kei")

What was interesting about the two is how they breed..

With the sandfish.. for each female.. 10-20 males gather around.. to get her to release her eggs (which will stick to nearby plantlife, and harden in just seconds).. so the males try and quickly release their sperm to fertalize the eggs before it's too late..

With the Kobe dai.. for each male.. there are 10 females that gather around.. trying to get him to mate with her.. but the male can spend as much as half a day, testing to see which female is worthy of passing her genes to the next generation of Kobe dai.. after the male picks a mate.. they will "dance" for about 30mins as he pets her with his pectoral fins.. and swim upwards in a spiral.. as they both release their sperm & eggs respectively at the same time! More strange? When there are no males in a population.. the female Kobe dai actually turn into male Kobe dai.. their body changes, the color changes, and they start to produce sperm.. That is how male Kobe dai come to be.. That blew my mind away..

Anyway..

Best,

GrkScorp
