You think your sex life is strange, wait till you see this.

There is a (probably) NSFW but absolutely fantastic hashtag happening on twitter right now, that has scientists competing with tweets to bring you the strangest sex organs in the animal kingdom. It’s educational, horrifying and hilarious.

Here are a few highlights. Enjoy!
