Abstract
In many species, males have developed strategies to safeguard their genetic material from dilution by that of competing males. Fruitflies achieve this by altering the behaviour of their partners.
Sex can be transformative. Humans often romanticize the after-effects of copulation, but for most organisms there are real biological consequences to mating that go beyond the transfer of sperm.
