Coldness and Selfishness of Male Characters in Thomas Hardy's "The Withered Arm" and Anton Chekhov's "A Misfortune"Both of the stories have themes of selfishness and coldness. They appear in the roles of some characters of each story. Lubyantsev, the male character of The Misfortune, is similar to Mr. Lodge, the male character of The Withered Arm. Each of them appears as a selfish and cold man at the beginning.The author does not introduce Mr. Lodge at the first act of the story directly.

Mate guarding, which is defined as " individual males following mates around during critical periods," is something that is very commonly seen in male swallows during the critical pre-egg laying, and egg lying periods. During the 1986 breeding season, Anders Pape Moller wanted to know the importance of mate guarding in these swallows. Two major questions seemed to have been posed at the beginning of the reading. First, what are the costs/benefits to the males and females when the behavior of guarding is given up. In other words, do the males and females benefit from this behavior? Or does this behavior lead to negative outcomes in either the male/female swallows. Another important question

Whenever a frog tries to jump on the back of another frog and use the arms to grasp it, it's definitely a male. If the male isn't rejected immediately, there is a good chance that the second frog is a female and that she is even prepared to breed.

In insects and animals, most sexual and social behavior is controlled by pheromones.Humans have used perfumes for thousands of years, but there is a basic difference between perfume and pheromones. Pheromones are produced by the body and usually do not smell at all pleasant, whereas perfumes are either synthesized or extracted from natural products and are employed because of their pleasant smell.Scientific research suggests that there are human pheromones for both the male and the female.

This idea brings about the role of Christianity to the beginnings of feminism/feminist movement. The role of Christianity was a big part of women and men's lives.

Once the female has mated, she can store sperm and use it over a period of up to two years to lay several batches of eggs. She spends much time producing up to ten round egg sacs (1cm diameter), which are white, weathering to brown over time. Each egg sac contains approximately 250 eggs and only one to three weeks need to pass before more eggs can be laid. These sacs are suspended within the web. Sometimes small ichneumonid wasps parasitise them, puncturing each sac with tiny holes. When the tiny pale-green spiderlings hatch, they disperse by ballooning to another suitable nest site. Females mature on average in about four months. The smaller male matures on average in about 90 days
