To support her argument, Dr. Brennan notes studies on some species that have found that forced matings make up about a third of all matings. Yet only 3 percent of the offspring are the result of forced matings. "To me, it means these females are successful with this strategy," she said.

It reminds me of the joke about the little lad who had a duck on a lead but I can't tell it on A2K due to its utter tastelessness.

If you tell the joke real good the duck blinks twice just like fd does when the wardrobe door opens a little and a chink of subdued lighting falls upon it. It's a cheap wardrobe you see and the door is a bit loose.
