- A cave insect species has a role reversal in which the egg-producing individual has a penis-like structure and inserts it into the sperm-producing individual's vagina-like structure. — Animal Penises, Evolution, and Human Assumptions
- Animal biology does not consistently fit a two-sex binary; some animals show continua of structures and behaviors that humans label masculine or feminine. — Animal Penises, Evolution, and Human Assumptions
