my first direct encounter with a mantis was in june 2007.
broad daylight, following my being in communicative intuition with what i was aware was a female of the mantis species, so i was quite familiar. she appeared and is 8 to 10 feet tall, hovering 4 to 5 ft in the air, natural unclothed insect.i was empowered by the most female warmth,love and power i have yet to experience prompting an instant decision, would her natural physical being prohibit me having sex with her. my instant reply was, no it would not, as i realized the emotions contained within love are not conditional upon the shape of the radiating source of that love. following that exchange of emotion i told her what she had come to hear and she did what i call, a fly past, she went like a rocket in flight, flying patterns in front of me whilst radiating her joyful feelings.

because it was daylight and i was conscious i know the whole experience was 16 mins..

the following month (july) i was sitting upon our roof terrace with my son aged 15 years. A red admiral butterfly landed on the guard rail and motioned contact to the point where my son and i stood up and walked to it. It flew up and landed on the top of my head (crown) and for 5 or 6 minutes gave me a picture of the thoughts/wisdom of insects upon earth. it then flew to my forehead, landed ,spread it`s wings out and continued. by this time my sons eyes are on stalks and after another 5 mins. he stated "I want to talk to it". it flew and landed on his crown and a blissful smile and radiance emanated from my son. it stayed for 5 mins then flew onto the railing. signaled by flying landing in patterns several times more then left.
to this day my son will not tell me what the butterfly said and i do not mind not knowing.
it was related to my first mantis encounter

the sexual response requested by my mantis upon first encounter was important to her and at the time i never imagined or thought why. i am now aware that the mantis female, as i believe all females do experience, times when their body and personality demands a fuction which i understand is both essential and highly emotional for them. it`s not their choice, it is how they are structured. when the time came for her to experience i participated naturally as a "midwife". I was there and provided the erotic/mental stimulation for her to endure/enjoy what nature demanded of her.the sensations for myself were of erotic bliss fulfilling the male role of providing your mate with the correct emotional stimulus for her to preform her physical function.
it takes quite a while and yes, i discovered near to her climax, that from her formidable stinger, unseen to then, excreted juices, which is the point of the experience. it is not poison that comes out, it is something else. the emotional erotic stimulation and satisfaction of providing an orgasm for her was at least as good as human physical sex for me, possibly because believe the greatest satisfaction a male can achieve, or at least i can. is seeing/feeling the satisfaction/orgasms you have induced within your mate
you always know when you get it right cos they can not and do not hide it.

quite unlike sex as performed by us humans
