You know they come in both flavors, right?

Yeah of course but it's weird to think of a male spider kkk maybe because of the "widow" thing idk

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Yes, but most males don't spin webs, so a "web designer" spider is far more likely to be female.

Oh I'm aware, that was just pointed at the fact that spiders aren't monogender lol. No Asaris here.

Are they all named Charlotte?

I know this book gets recommended at every opportunity around here, so continuing the tradition: Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky is a wonderful sci-fi novel that (among many other things) explores the gender roles of spider society.

The ones that build webs are. The males of orb weavers/cobweb spiders wander from place to place, always on the move looking for food and sexy ladies.
