Deep-sea squid are very “free” way of life and often mate with members of their sex. Octopoteuthis deletron breed when the male covers the female spermatophore - a sperm capsules with, which are then absorbed into her body. However, there are cases when a male emits spermatophores on the other.

Moreover, in males and females were released the same number of capsules, which means that the wanton squid, in fact, do not care with whom to mate. Apparently, this behavior is due to the fact that deep-sea squids live in harsh conditions, therefore, met by a representative of its kind, slow to reproduce, not really sorting out who it is: a male or female.
