Olivia Judson, of the New York Times, has “tyrannical romantic fantasies” on the mind. No, she’s not thinking about boning Bush or Kim Jong-il. Nor is she dreaming, as I am, about doing gay-heartthrob Ahmadinejad. This evolutionary biologist is salivating over: T. Rexes.“Did he bite her neck in rapture and exude a musky scent?,” she asks breathlessly. Did the T. Rex have a wiener (or even two!), she wonders hungrily, and just how big were those dinosaur testes? Someone get this woman a time machine!
She helpfully explains:
In species where females usually mate with a single male during a breeding episode, penises tend to be small and uninteresting. In those where females mate with several males (whether by choice or by force), penises are typically larger, and come with fancy decorations such as grooves, nobbles, and spikes.
On second thought: Can anyone blame her?
