This article surprised me - I thought sexual reproduction had always been thought to be be as old as fish.

I think the first guy to ever have sex was that Charlie the Tuna guy. I’ll have to check with Algore on that though.

I have lived for 66 years without knowing this. How is this going to help me live through another 66?

So I wonder what spawned the first fish that reproduced by sexual reproduction.

So, how many millions of years did fish swim around with a useless protopenis or protovagina, thinking "hmmm, I have no idea what this thing is for, but I'm going to breed exclusively with
other fish that have the same thing, because someday we're going to have
sex dude!!!"???
Should homosexuality be considered a throwback to the days before reproductive sex, lol?
