Does procreation lead to a successful city-state? Socrates believed that to be true. The Sexual Congress has no elitist mentality about what would occur from their procreation. They both had different ideas about how the sexual intercourse would occur. Socrates had the idea that only the guardians must be able to have sex, and the inferior people may have children, but they must be hidden. Especially in the case of a deformed offspring. In The Sexual Congress, men must first have sex with the ugliest

The function of mate guarding in the field crickets, Gryllus bimaculatus Abstract: In insect species with indirect sperm transfer, sperm is packed in a spermatophore that is either externally attached to the female 's genital opening or introduced into her bursa copulatrix. Sperm transfer is not immediate in these species, and consequently mate guarding has been suggested to function as a mechanism of guarding sperm until it is released from the spermatophore into the female (i.e. spermatophore

Sonnets 5 and 6 from Shakespeare’s Sonnets, a collection of sonnets written by William Shakespeare, represent themes such as procreation, the passage of time, beauty, love and mortality. Shakespeare’s sophisticated use of rhetorical methods, persuasive techniques, metaphors, repetition, structural framing, combined with his aesthetic values create a parallel in these two sonnets. In both sonnets, he tries to convince the handsome young man to marry and beget children so that the youth 's incredible

the globe, has become a substantial debate throughout a majority of nations. The incorporation of a new type of reproduction in the United States has a plentiful amount of benefits for certain animals and objects, but duplicates of humans is hard to comprehend for many people across America.

The incorporation of cloning

than that between females. It is suggested by the authors that the material contribution by each of sexes to the next generation is what determines the reproductive rate of the population. In an instances where one sex contributes more to the reproduction and survival of the offspring than the other this sex will become the limiting factor for sexual selection, and will be subject to greater loss of fitness if an importer mate choice is made. In terms of contribution to offspring both male and

Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, is Victor Frankenstein’s illusion and like all illusions it can only be told by the one who has experienced it. According the online article “Frankenstein’s Dream”, there is a rift that emerges between sleeping and waking and blurs the lines between an illusion and it’s telling; the telling can only guess or identify one state of being or one idea of things experienced (Fraistat, Jones).

In many Arthropoda (Arthropods), sexual cannibalism is quite common. Female Mantodeas (Mantids), commonly referred to as Mantis from their genus, have been known to decapitate their male counterparts before, during or even after sexual copulation. Sexual cannibalism varies widely amongst the species of Mantids, where some species lack this behavior all together. Males often take part in ritualistic dances to court a female and are very cautious of their proximity before attempting to mount. Although

In this naturalistic observation study I looked at the differences between male and females regarding their actions upon greeting another person. I looked at the frequency in which they hugged or performed a different action (e.g. waving, speech, other etc.). Ultimately this information was used to find whether males or females hug when greeting more often than the other gender. The variable of interest in this experiment are gender and the action upon greeting.Gender is conceptually defined as the
