  • Rudegar, on 11/05/2009, -0/+13"Dr. Zoidberg: Stop! Stop! If you interrupt the mating dance the male will become enraged and maul us with his fearsome gonad!"
  • cyrusuncc, on 11/05/2009, -1/+13The oldest profession...
  • PowderedToasty, on 11/05/2009, -1/+12The article claims that females trade sex for protection, not that males trade protection for sex. Discuss.

  • andyb747, on 11/05/2009, -2/+7...some of the male crabs have settled for a claw job.
  • Gauthic, on 11/05/2009, -0/+5If they're not careful they'll get humans.

  • Eurynom0s, on 11/05/2009, -0/+4So crabs are like people. Some might even say, CRAB PEOPLE
  • neutron7, on 11/05/2009, -1/+5At least they dont want a diamond ring as well.
  • piieerrrree, on 11/05/2009, -0/+3Dugg for the giant claw.
  • TheCollective00, on 11/05/2009, -0/+3Read in Dr. Zoidberg's voice.
  • Mujokan, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2No one will ever want to mate with me, not with a puny claw like this. Did you see those other guys? They looked like giant claws with bodies attached.
  • KahRahTay, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2it's funny 'cause it's a joke about virgins
  • Eupatorus, on 11/05/2009, -1/+2Nothing new here.
  • billizm, on 11/05/2009, -1/+2See. Prostitution is natural and beneficial. One of the many victimless crimes we have.
  • Rudegar, on 11/05/2009, -0/+1or a bubble job ?
  • Sillywombat, on 11/05/2009, -1/+2What a whore, she'll probably give you crabs.

  • eocarroll, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1I hope none of them winds up with a case of the humans!
  • xtheshadowx, on 11/05/2009, -0/+1Ouch...
  • gordoysa, on 11/05/2009, -0/+1Misleading article. Neighbors just mating and male protecting female territory has nothing to do with mating act itself, except possibly to protect offsprings as natural instinct.
  • GiggleStick, on 11/05/2009, -0/+1You can't catch crabs from a mattress.
  • inactive, on 11/05/2009, -0/+0You can't protect against crabs with any kind of protection other than being completely shaven. Still they can develop (no ive never had them)
  • LeonFlux, on 11/05/2009, -1/+1trade Crabs for sex protection?

  • doctressjulia, on 11/05/2009, -2/+1Troll.
  • poprocksandsoda, on 11/05/2009, -2/+1Better than giving crabs during sex even while using protection.
  • Lovecore, on 11/05/2009, -10/+0I love Reddit and Digg just recycle each other :(
