"By the time the female fly realizes her lover is a cheapskate and beats him off with her wings, the male already has mated with her and leaves with his faux present to find another partner. "
Hahaha, did anyone else notice anything funny about "beats him off with her wings"?
Anyway, this reminds me of something I just read kind of. There's a kind of fish (completely forget its name) that the males have whisker like things that resemble a daphnia worm (wow, I remember the worm but not the fish?), which is a kind of worm that the female of the species likes to feed on. So she sees these "worms", and goes over and tries to get one and the male rapes her, and that is how they mate. Hahahaha.
