I for one am very happy not being a male spider. Not only do I not find female spiders attractive in that way (my relationships with she-spiders have always been platonic at best), but my ego is too fragile to endure the size differential you see here.
Thanks for the photo, Lance.

Yup! That's either pre- or post-mating. The male wouldn't dare to get that close otherwise.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo!
Talk about throwing a stick down a volcano...
ReplyDeleteAwesome shot. So how do you tell the difference between a daddy spider and a baby spider??
ReplyDeleteIs it wrong that I want desperately to 'shop a Drow's upper torso on it...? ;-P

No, TwoDragons, that is oh-so-right. The world needs more Driders.

ReplyDeleteThe Drow-torso would make the whole mini-male picture so perfect. ;)
Raptors also have rather large females. Seeing a male and female falcon side-by-side is pretty fun for us "girls". ;)
Hehehe...Sounds like I have myself a little project to do, then! Especially since I just got Corel Painter X from my darling husband...
ReplyDelete...I'll get back to y'all, hopefully with something good. *GRIN!*
*Grabs up Wacom pad* Now where did I put that stylus...
