Yeah, it’s a book about wieners and mating behaviors of animals in the wild. Or, well, in labs. You would not believe how many people study insect intercourse. There’s a lot in here about cultural perceptions about how “penis equals power,” and gender bias and rape culture, which is fine—I always love a good feminist rant—but I’m mostly here for the weird facts. Are ya ready?

The blue whale has an 8-foot-long schlong, but the barnacle has the biggest wiener in proportion to their size—up to nine times as large! You’re welcome.
