Klingon Mating Rituals Explained [VIDEO]

I work with nerds, I'm one too, but I draw the line at discussing mating rituals of the Klingons.

It all started with this video:

Next, I was intrigued to search out Klingon mating rituals, because my boss, a thirty-nine-year-old man (I think he's forty, but he made me write this!) started discussing just that.

I thought he was making it up but turns out it's true.  Anyways, here's what I found according to En.Memory-Alpha.org:

Klingon mating rituals are a series of courting traditions held by the Klingons. Klingon mating rituals include combative foreplay. (TNG: "The Emissary"; VOY: "Blood Fever") The ritual begins with each participant sniffing the other's right arm/hand. Then each grips the other's right hand as to cause bleeding.

Sounds like a Saturday night at my place. :-)

There you go...all nerds rejoice!  A side note on that video above: you could make a drinking game out of the show.  Every time Worf gets denied take a drink.
