Wikipedia:
To mate
following courtship,
the male usually leaps onto the female’s back,
clasping her thorax and wing bases
with his forelegs.
He then arches his abdomen
to deposit and store sperm
in a special chamber near the tip of the female’s abdomen.
The female lays between 10 and 400 eggs,
depending on the species. Eggs are typically deposited in a froth mass-produced by glands
in the abdomen.
This froth hardens,
creating a protective capsule,
which together with the egg mass
is called an ootheca.poemforyoursprog is that you?
I just liked the wikipedia entry and thought it had a touch more poetry and… enthusiasm let us say than I was expecting. And no, poemforyoursprog would have made it all rhyme.

This was actually the inspiration for some art I got, the initial idea being that the person wished for an ideal girlfriend and ended up with an insect lady who was objectively beautiful but extremely awkward to look at. It came as a result of me looking into what people considered attractive and noticing that every single trait that could be applied to a bug (because they sure as hell aren’t getting “intelligent”) did.
Now i’m bug-pilled. The future is going to be made up of insect-people.
There’s a Craig Ferguson interview, where he says one of the secrets of some(!!!) of the most attractive Hollywood actors, is that in real-life they look like bug people. You know, weird looking, big eyes, huge head, tiny body. Looks great on camera and in 2d, not so much in the flesh. Probably also why IRC some Hollywood insiders call actors lollipop people. Stick with a big head on it.
In case you were curious what it looked like, here is the concept art I drew

EDIT: Found this one as well
Her milk shake brings all the bugs to her arms.
She’s a man eater.
Watch out boy she’ll chew you up.
Ohhh-ohhh here she comes
“She had six strong legs and it frightened me. She had insect eyes but I could still see that the look she gave him you give to me.”
well, now I know this exists.
thanks, I guess
edit: apparently this guy is responsible for R.E.M.
So hot.
You know how 3d glasses make anyone 3000x times more attractive? Well guess what, they can wear 3d glasses too.
Will eat you after you blow your load

A classic
after
And in some cases, while.
The female may begin feeding by biting off the male’s head (as they do with regular prey), and if mating has begun, the male’s movements may become even more vigorous in its delivery of sperm.

skinny legs aint sexy when paired with a big butt
I don’t like huge butts, like the bbl. It’s gross
You dislike big butts and you cannot lie?
😂
Skinny legs? Is that a thing people want?
Look up “thigh gap”. Not saying I agree with it, just that it’s a thing.
