Has anyone ever questioned what is proper morale in the mantis world?

For example, us humans set up our female mantids with multiple males. In the human world it is frowned upon, but what is it in the mantis world?

Any other examples?

 
They only eat what's still kicking..

Idk about every one but I like, my food well done

 
Mantids engage in cannibalism, decapitation, incest, polygamy, necrophilia, filicide, mariticide, prolicide, and sororicide. Plus they don't wipe their butts!

And just so you know...

mo·rale

noun

emotional or mental condition with respect to cheerfulness, confidence, zeal, etc., especially in the face of opposition, hardship, etc.: the morale of the troops.

You mean "morals" or "morality"...

principles or habits with respect to right or wrong conduct. ;)

Thats what went through my head when I saw this

I dont know any others

 
This might be considered sexest but...

In most mantis species, females are larger,bulkier, and stronger while males are small and thin.

It is usually different in humans

Also please dont hate me for this! :)

Biologically speaking females have more percent body fat (or are supposed to)

Learned that in 5th grade during "the talk" (and not the popular tv show)
