Lately I’ve been answering the dispatch phones and talking to quite a few of you. I would love to be doing calls with you and I will do so Saturday, hopefully most of the evening before I head to the coast on my birthday trip.
While I’ve been answering the phones I’ve been treated to the sounds of cats mating in my yard. The howling and screeching mounts to a crescendo and then it dies down for awhile. I can’t help but think of a program I watched once on cats. It was quite detailed and covered how cats see, taste and feel, etc. But the part that struck me the most was the fact that the male cat has little spiny porcupine-like quills up and down his penis. This makes copulation painful for the female, thus the howling. I don’t know why this one fact stuck in my mind, but it did nonetheless.
Can you imagine if this were true for the human species? What would masturbation be like? You very well couldn’t masturbate at all, could you? You’d be helpless, waiting for your female to come into heat and relieve your tensions. Naturally she wouldn’t want anything to do with you either. What a strange bunch of circumstances that would be. The howling would be horrific and hurt your ears, making the actual sex even more unpleasant for both parties. Hmmmmm.
Later babies,
Tia
