We label cables and as male and female; cables are penetrative. In the hostility of the deep waters: primordial soup, 3,7 billion years ago, the first organism, single celled, came into existence, only to be followed by the evolution of multicellular organisms. 2,5 billion years ago. They were all asexually reproducing - multiplying. The First sex is a debated topic. But we all assume it happened somewhere after the first living organism come. Between 3,7 billion years ago and 2023. So, from multiplying, to reproduction. Sex of sorts. Desire. Sex. Also here in the hostility of the deep waters, lie cables that transport information, data between continents. All the data on the internet. Data shows sex. Desire. Sex. From sexual evolution to sexual revolution.

How ironic that our most advanced, efficient technology, the internet is now in contact with the cradle of life itself. When we think of where sex first evolved it was in the water, involving swimming cells.
