Yes, I understand your curiosity, and you can even find out that I'm not a moth person at all, simply by clicking my profile link to look at my contributions to the BugGuide. I didn't dissected the specimen to figure out whether it has genitalia of male or female. I found out only by the fresh eggs laid in series of days.after the collection (in vial), and caterpillars hatched out of those eggs (The moth was still alive that time, so that potentially eliminates the caterpillars being a parasitic). I never uploaded eggs on anywhere online, so I can't share an image, but here is a link to YouTube, of caterpillars hatched out of eggs.

When I see mating pairs online one has it's wings tucked into the wing "tube" of the other, plus one is a slightly different color. But aside from those situations it seems a total pain. Thank you!

Oh, wow, really? I had no clue. I've never seen them mating either. This species often fly over to my light trap in a small number. There are some Alianthus trees around my place, but had no luck finding any caterpillars of adult moths flying around the flowers.
