Ok, but lets look at the Black Widow situation through other eyes before dismissing it so handily. Here is the ultimate male. He is willingly sacrificing everything to the benefit of his offspring and to the satisfaction of his mate. When the little critters hatch, they scurry off on their own. There is no need for rearing or anything so nothing is lost by the absent dad. What is so awful. Who says there has to be romance has to go on until judgement day for all creatures. The presumption most of us have been making is that the BW slaughters her stupid duped mate with malice. Not so.
