    You can get a blockage in your urethra that makes you pee in two streams.

    Maybe that was the deal.

      Also imminently possible. But people really do want to leap to that “they have two thick, meaty, ridged, bony Klingon shafts” conclusion.

        I mean, I’m sure that was the intent when they showed it. I’m just saying (as are you) that there are other possibilities since they couldn’t show what it was coming out of.

          Probably. But I enjoy throwing cold water on everyone’s boner parade.

            Honestly, I prefer the cold water. “Klingons have two penises” is just stupid. What evolutionary reason would there be for that? It’s not like the two penises are in two different locations so they could get two female Klingons pregnant at once.

              I mean, snakes, lizards and sharks have that setup. I’m not sure exactly what benefit it has, but they do. Though if you wanted to justify it, maybe the reason would be redundancy in case one gets damaged, considering their affinity for violence.

                I’m assuming it isn’t necessary to have two with either party.

                  It is established that Klingons have a bunch of redundant organs. Maybe Klingons have two separate reproductive systems in case one gets stabbed

              Klingons are known to have redundant organs so that if one fails, the other continues to function as a backup.

                It didn’t look like either of them was acting like a backup.

              Exactly. I’m suggesting it’s more that they’re shooting both barrels into the same target.

              I mean, yeah, it also could be a situation where there are two separate vaginas, two separate birth canals, and two separate uteruses. But does that mean the Klingon female can get double-pregnant? Like, you could have identical twins that come out of the same womb, but also fraternal twins that come from the same womb…but ALSO, you could have twins where one develops in the dorsal womb and the other develops in the ventral womb?

              Or even quadruplets, where it’s one set of twins and another set of twins.

              Either way, when that water breaks, get ready to ride the wave. Also, Klingon placentae would be some crazy shit. Ya gotta know that.

                And I think the twins thing is unlikely considering we’ve seen Klingon siblings such as Worf and his Brother and Lursa and B’etor and they are not twins. We’ve yet to see an example of Klingon twins.

                  Maybe Klingon twins always kill each other, in the womb. Maybe there are ALWAYS twins, and one always emerges victorious.

                  EDIT: they LITERALLY emerge victorious. And maybe that’s the original basis for the ritual, where they scream to the gods, after someone dies. The very first thing a Klingon does in his whole life is commemorate his first bloody victory by screaming, as a newborn.

      Maybe their foreheads aren’t the only fore-things with a bony ridge down the middle.

      Or, as they call it, a Chancellor A’Gagh.
