This is even better than gay swans
I just think that’s really nice.
oh i’m not being fooled today.
That is an absolutely incredible mental image.

I may just be a humble penis operator, so excuse the ignorance, but don’t they make toys for this situation? Something the sheep lack?
A different interpretation: a “bottom” doesn’t like to play the penetrative role in sex, and so two bottoms become frustrated in a sexual scenario with each other.
I’m also just a penis operator, but the joke to me is that neither of them is capable of initiating anything, just waiting for the topper
Ah, that makes sense. Thanks, friendo!
Serious question: is this as big of a deal with lesbians as it would be for gay men?
as a lesbian, i have no idea and would also like to know
Not surprising considering how many human lesbians do the same thing when interested in another.
As a human male I have never felt so strongly that I belong to the opposite sex.

I know this is probably a joke, but you are aware that freezing up and being unable to make a move is a common thing for all genders, right?
Of course. I just thought the comment was very egg_irl-like.
I’m so offended by how absolutely correct you are
>:(
The lesbian black widow spiders have entered the chat…
They are all bottoms
I hope the author manages to fix their space key
they’re waiting for someone like you to come along and fix it.
Yeah, I can’t tell if s/he just had trouble finding it, or s/he was trying to… build new words??
“They” is a word that exists!

I read it as lesbianship at first
most likely copied from PDF, thus the line break is copied properly.
Sounds like rams could have a similar problem where they both think they want to kill each other

… but end up having sex?
Yeah, but i won’t get into the mechanics of how it all plays out. Ask the scientists for more information
I just can’t find the paper. One Link to Harvard gives 404. Yay for the censorship of lesbian sheep
yeah this is kinda fascinating, would read

Where is the metaphor
The joke maybe is that lesbians are shy and often do nothing if they think someone is cute. Just like standing still.
Ahye I get that totally, but it just says it is a metaphor inside the image so I was confused because I was expecting layers

Eweslest?
Schroedinger’s lesbian sheep
I’m a big fan of Doctorov , but I’m this case I would like a citation.
I’m making interested to see how the gender of the ewes was determined. I mean if the indicator of sexual attraction is indistinguishable from normal behavior: standing still how could one prove the sheep to be lesbian?
I suppose he should have said “gay ewes would be hobbled” and lesbian sheep would be incapable of coupling up".
His quote shows that people say there’s no way of knowing one way or another, like you say, but Doctorow changed the language to be a bit more suggestive of certainty that the phenomenon exists.
I have read through a couple of articles that I could relate to the Journal article. Most focus really heavily on the male sexual expression. I could read nothing about female still behavior.
That isn’t strange, researchers focus mainly on the male sexual aspect, as that’s where the money is for sheep farmers.
I am however still searching for the quote about female sexuality, I can’t find it in Perkins, nor Stormshak’s work.
Oh god it’s the pillow princess meme for realsies
