When snails copulate, two penises enter two vaginal tracts.
That reminds me of this sweet old love song by an old cowboy band.
[Outro]
Criticize what you wreck
We’re fucking you back
Fucking you back

When snails copulate, two penises enter two vaginal tracts. Both snails in a pairing transfer sperm, but whichever snail got in the best shot with the dart has a better chance of ultimately fertilizing eggs.
First they stab eachother. The better the stab, the more effective the stabber’s sperm will be. Then they exchange fluids. Then they settle down, buy a minivan, and waste away in an office until they die.

its like flatworms, they do the same. i think earthworms and relatives are more mutual, they fertilize each other at the same time without fighting.
