Here are two beautiful nudi's mating. It looks like the yin-yang symbol. I wonder which is which?

Oh, wait a minute. They both are both sexes! What they are doing is fertilizing each other so they will each have babies.

Wow, wouldn't that be handy. Men could finally experience the joys of childbirth!

Coming back down to earth, I must warn everyone that these brightly colored sea slugs are venomous and unpalatable.

I think we should rename them the drag queens of the deep!

Found in National Geographic, the home of the prettiest pictures on earth. This image produced by David Doubilet.
