Kind of a dud article, given it promises mid than it delivers about the actual spawning process, but it contains an amazing fact:
Apparently Sigmund Freud did an unsuccessful stint as a marine biologist and was tasked with dissecting 400 male eels to try to find their reproductive organs, which he couldn't because despite being adults they aren't sexually mature until they migrate to their spawning grounds.
I feel like this explains a LOT about Freud's theories' focus on sexual organs (especially of the eel-shaped variety), in light of... Freud's theories.

Freud: spends hours and hours dissecting phallic fish, looking for actual phalluses but failing to find them.
Later, Freud: everything is subconsciously phallic imagery! I ^H^HPeople constantly imagine phalluses even when they're not aware that's what they're doing!

#Patriotário: o dito "patriota" que puxa o saco dos EUA e sonha com uma intervenção estrangeira, militar e violenta, na ausência de um golpe local. É o traidor da pštria por formação reativa, como ditia #Freud.
