What's true for one may be true for the other?

Have they done a test like this on females or does this apply to females as well?

Also, if there wasn't enough pressure to have sex with a guy before you want to/are ready, now we know that if we don't, we're killing them. Hmmm…this study may not be a good thing.
Thanks for this!

How difficult would it be to determine the sex of a fruit fly?
