    Fun fact! Octopuses/octopodes/octopi (I’m not arguing about this because it’s three different root languages and at least 2 are acceptable to most people) are fucking weird. Usually the male octopus will tear off their penis arm and throw it to the female since the females are extremely voracious eaters and will eat the male if they get too close. When the female ends up laying their eggs, they start making a hormone that makes them not hungry anymore so they don’t eat their eggs - it often leads to the mother starving to death while guarding them

    If I recall correctly their nervous system and brain are spread throughout their bodies so no matter how they did it would still be brain sex.

    Males put enough effort into it that they die shortly after mating, and your stingy ass won’t even go down on your girl.

      He goes so hard that she dies shortly after as well. She walks funny into the grave.

      Jokes aside, I never knew that male octopuses also die after mating.

        Essentially for both it’s hormone overload. They’ve got a gland behind their eyes that puts them into reproduction mode and once it turns on it never turns off until it kills them. They stop eating and eventually go crazy.
