Human Males Can’t Compete With Orchids

This is the headline story in CBC’s Health & Science section: Orchid does 360-degree twist to self-pollinate

An orchid growing in a harsh conditions defies gravity to twist its male sexual organs 360 degrees to fertilize its female organ, Chinese scientists have discovered.

I’m trying to figure out its signifigance as the number one story. I’m guessing they’re suggesting that human males are sexually incompetent because we can’t (well, *I* can’t) twist ourselves in knots to, uh, spread our seed.

Yeah, that’s it.

    This is nothing new for Americans. We’ll go through much greater contortions for the chance to f*** ourselves.

    We can f*** ourselves. But I think the Catholic church calls it self abuse. But boxing is a sport…
