Gift first, then Mate !
Males in the spider world have a tough time while approaching females. They can't make any mistakes in the process of approaching.. Slightest mistake,life will be in danger To approach a female, first need to impress her. Many males Dance in front of females & few males are still smarter & they gift food packed in their silk !
Here is one such smart Argyrodes male, who has stolen a cuckoo wasp from a signature spider web,just to gift his Girl .
Female Argyrodes was impressed by the gift/food offered by male & allowed him to mate .
