Nah, mermaid be half-fish, not half-dolphin. Dolphins don’t have scales.
Though if it were half-dolphin mermaid… Then, yeah. I’d agree. By all accounts, dolphin sex is fantastic.
(And, yes, I’m also ignoring that not all fish do the ‘lay eggs and then fertilize them externally’ thing. Some fish actually do have actual intercourse for internal fertilization, using all the bits you’re familiar with to do it. Except that the males have two of them, for double the fun.)
Another point is that most depictions of merfolk have their tails be horizontal (like a whale or dolphin), as opposed to vertical (like a shark or fish), which could indicate a combination of fish and dolphin. Scales, but horizontal tail 🤔
I was thinking it would be more like dolphin sex.
