Last week, a giant leopard slug followed me home in a bag of takeout.
I hate bugs, but I found this slug extremely adorable.
Maybe hed be eaten by a pigeon, maybe he wouldnt, but his fate wasnt mine to decide.
I had to know: How horny isMy Octopus Teacher,really?
Short answer: He didnt.
The ocean is obviously, inherently erotic.
It looks much more like an owner stroking his cat.
Foster and the octopus share something in common: Theyre both motivated by curiosity.
He dives every day without a tank to observe her, and she in turn observes him.
If anything,My Octopus Teacheris actively sex negative.
So he sees her and sees a loss of phallus entirely.
Its intimate, but that doesnt make it necessarily erotic.
Craig Foster doesnt fuck the octopus.
