These chemicals calm pain, from a minor headache to arthritis or migraines, and with no secondary effects. Migraines also disappear because the pressure in the brain's blood vessels is lowered while we have sex.

I have no proof of this myself, I'm just pointing out what it says.

The male Argonaut squid produces sperm in a specially adapted penis which is then detached from the body to swim by itself to a suitable female, who will be automatically impregnated by the separated penis.

The male can only watch his sexual encounter as his disembodied apparatus makes its way solo and carries out the sex act for him.

Hopefully, he will have selected the right female, as it takes a long time to regrow a new detachable dingaling.
