Sometimes boys and girls are girls and boys.
Leopard slugs are hermaphrodites. Each one reproduces as both a male and a female. When two slugs mate, they accept sperm from one another and then lay eggs.
Some species can’t be described in terms of “girls” and “boys.”
See all the images and text by downloading or purchasing Crime Against Nature, the book. The making of When a Man-woman Loves a Woman-man is shown on my blog.
