    Is it strange that I find myself turned on after watching these "dirty" little bugs?!

    • 4 thumbs up and strangely erotic!!!!!! Posted on May 12 2008 at 4:04pm by janelle.monroe75
      I think that all the shorts were incredibly well done. I especially liked the bee and firefly pieces! The costumes and props were incredibly clever. It was innocent, playful, and very entertaining.

        Bravo to Isabella Rossellini for making these! They're wonderfully inventive and funny, while also being educational. I look forward to seeing more of her writing and directing!

        (And thanks to Jimmy Kimmel for featuring them on his show tonight, which is how I found out about them, as I don't subscribe to Sundance. I would absolutely watch the channel if it were free.)

      The shorts were great. Unfortunately, the one about the praying mantis perpetuates the myth that female praying mantises customarily behead the males who mate with them. This has been debunked (I saw a great article in a UC Davis magazine back in the 1980's), but continues to appear in science textbooks because they just copy each other rather than actually checking their facts.

      According to the New World Encyclopedia [www.newworldencyclopedia.org], "One of the most popular myths about praying mantids is that the female always decapitates males during copulation; while this sometimes happens, it is not commonplace in nature (Grzimek et al. 2004). It is frequently observed in captivity. If the female does cannibalize the male during copulation, he will continue to mate even without the head (Grzimek et al. 2004). The female may start feeding by biting off the male’s head (as with any prey), and if mating had begun, the male’s movements may become even more vigorous in its delivery of sperm.

      "Early researchers thought that because copulatory movement is controlled by ganglion in the abdomen not the head, removal of the male’s head was a reproductive strategy by females to enhance fertilization while obtaining sustenance. Later, this bizarre behavior appeared to be an artifact of intrusive laboratory observation. Whether the behavior in the field is natural, or also the result of distractions caused by the human observer, remains controversial. Mantids are highly visual creatures, and notice any disturbance occurring in the laboratory or field such as bright lights or moving scientists."

      I read about Green Porno in the July issue of Scientific American. Looks like the videos can not be seen on web from outside of USA. Any workaround?

      [color=blue]YES ! it IS WEIRD that you are turned on by this! What is wrong with you! you are a homo sapien sapien, not a damn insect, Some supreme being (or evolution/genetics for you atheists) made you a homo sapien sapien and not an insect for a reason, deal with it.

        I will never look at insects or Isabella Rosselli the same, lol. This insect thing is her invention. Her mother Ingrid Bergman was incredible also. I particularly love Isabella's accent. Hope she does not mind that I put about Green Porno on my erotic/adult-like site, but figure she would not mind.
        On another note: Given my knowledge, I think a new Kinsey-like study on the human female climax would be great, especially how some women have conquered the mind-body issue and can either readily climax or ejaculate. Or how they can learn to. And have Isabella make ... symbolic vaginas using a similar format she used with the bugs. This would sell. The bugs squirting was somewhat strangely erotic !!!! Have no idea why, but they are ! Good going Isabella !!

          This is, with out a doubt, the dumbest thing I have ever seen. She likes humping bugs from behind, saying the word "anus", and apparently indulging in many illegal drugs. I'm very proud of her for contributing absolutely nothing to society. Bravo you idiot.

            Erika,

            Awesome time hanging with you. That Beavis and Butthead bikini is awesome, even though I think your right, those gardeners were checking you out.

            You dad is cool for buying us beer. See you at church.

            PS I agree, this Green Porno thing is not dope at all, in fact it is wack. Cat People is so much better.
