I don’t think that has anything to do with having sex.

I guess that’s the whole point why most people tend to build some kind of relationship before jumping into bed. It’s not weird if there is trust and affection between the people involved. It’s also a basic instinct of most animals, it’s something you want so any awkwardness that may arise is secondary.
When I couldn’t afford a new species that I wanted to keep :(
If you don’t like the act that leads to reproduction, you’re less likely to reproduce meaning that your genes will probably not be represented on the next generation and therefore the likelihood of people not enjoying reproduction is generally low.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Which heightened/different senses of other animals would you most like to experience (while still being human)?
5·2 years agoI’d like to be able to hear like a bat. There’s so much of the sound spectrum we normally don’t perceive and it’d also be cool to experience their echolocation.

6·2 years agoOur eyes are pretty good at working in air though. The only thing that makes them fish like is that they have to stay moisturised really. I doubt that filling them with air would do much, we could maybe get rid of floaters though. The dumbest thing about our eyes is that they’re inverted with nerves and blood vessels being in front of the receptor cells so I’m wondering how much they’d improve if they were properly constructed like in squid.

8·2 years agoThey probably can’t see colour very well though. They may have more receptors but they can’t mix those as well as humans so it’s a bit like looking at an 8 bit game with some new colours. Also the resolution of their eyes is abysmal. Birds have one receptor more (UV) and really sharp vision. That’s where it’s at imo.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How do you *effectively* prevent plaque/tartar forming on your teeth?
7·2 years agoElectric brushes (with regularly changed tips) can be amazing. There are also some inexpensive ultrasonic ones and I’m absolutely happy with mine. It’s a whole other level than handbrushes.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why isn't everyone talking about AI generated audiobooks?
2·2 years agoI guess that AI generated stuff will also have some telltale signs of being fake for quite some time if you actually look for it.

SteamDeck@kbin.social•I'm finally getting my first Steam Deck with the 512 OLED. What accessories would you consider imperative?
1·2 years agoA dock is really nice, the one by Valve isn’t exactly necessary, I bought one for 40€ on Amazon and it works perfectly.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What’s the strangest unexplained thing that’s happened to you ?
6·2 years agoI have that as well when I’m really tired. It’s more like dreaming of the situation you’re in though. When I actually open my eyes, some stuff is different and people are somewhere else.

4·2 years agoThey can be certain burning gasses, lights in the distance and such. Depends on the are and weather sometimes.
Yeah, the tropical species can be really wild, but also the Mediterranean ones can be quite colourful.
You’re welcome!
Rather small compared to the deep sea ones you are probably thinking of. They’re terrestrial so many people will call them rolly polys or something like that.
The largest species I currently have are Porcellio hoffmannseggi, as far as I know the largest terrestrial ones and they get to about 5 cm total length and maybe 3 cm body length.
I once tried to breed amphibious Ligia oceanica ones that I collected, commonly referred to as sea slaters. They were a bit bigger in terms of body length but needed saltwater and also didn’t fare well with room temperature I am afraid.However the P. hofmannseggi are fairly easy to keep and inexpensive. They just need a small container with a bit of soil, leaf litter and some dead or rotting hardwood to hide under, I spray them about once per week. It’s a great hobby.
There are also small freshwater species that can be kept in aquarium but they are not sold anywhere and you can usually collect them yourself.
4 species of roaches (Pseudoglomeris magnifica being the prettiest in my opinion), 3 species of isopods (Merulanella sp. scarlet being my favourite) and 2 species of beetles as well as shrimp and snails in an aquarium.

Because nobody wants to sell this?
