It's time for more interesting undersea sexual behavior. Today, we're going to learn about how male giant squids don't really care who they do it with:


The giant squid is not especially choosy when it comes to sex and will mate blind without checking if the object of its affection is male or female, a German researcher said on Tuesday.

Volker Miske, of the Stralsund maritime museum in northeast Germany, said a male specimen being prepared for conservation had sperm underneath its skin.

The giant squid reproduces by the male injecting sperm under the skin of its female partner.


I can't help but feel sorry for the females after reading that last paragraph.
