Despite the common belief about mantis that the female bites off the male's head after intercourse, the female does not do it out of principle. This happens often, but the reason for this is that the female must be well-fed to reproduce, and the male's head takes away the necessary protein. However, when the mantises have enough food, for example when they live in a place where they have plenty of access to insects, the female may spare the male. Moreover, males don't always get eaten. Sometimes they quickly impregnate a female from behind and quickly flee.

Fun fact: when male and female mantises mate, after the mating session, the females rip off the head, and other limbs of the male.

It looks quite feminine. *Gojo Satoru
