            Well, I’m pretty sure bacteria and others aren’t thrilled by the blatant and offensive pro-prokaryote bias on that name.

          It’s a gay term, and when gay men have sex, there is usually more than one dick. It’s a play on TNA, which is plural too.

          There is a gay magazine called DNA, a play on the fact that it may be genetic. we all know what they really mean.

          But, sure, in a straight monogamous relationship, there may be a singular. Broaden your mind to other possibilities.

              All asses are actually the same ass, travelling forward and backward through time.
