Men at Work: Down Under


And men, you thought inadequacy was a just middle aged plight.

Studs of the Animal World: An August conference presentation by a University of Central Florida researcher touted the frolicking, profligate mating of male South African squirrels, enhanced, the researcher hypothesized, by the fact that "they're hung." The typical proportional equivalency for human male genitals, she said, would be 13 inches. [New Scientist, 8-15-08]


Indiana University researchers reported in September that male Australian dung beetles differ from U.S. dung beetles in that evolutionary diversion of nutrients has given the Australians small horns but large penises and the Americans the opposite. Thus, noted the researchers, big-horned American males tend to fight each other for females, while Australians rely more on sneakiness. [New Scientist, 9-6-08]

The next time you lose a girl to a cute guy with an accent, just remember boys, there's a dung beetle who has too.

Just to clarify, I meant the solution to competing with foreign guys.

Not the solution to any other kind of inadequacy.
