    “She’s the bees knees” or “look at that sexy bird” I’m still confused after writing it out. Does the stinger go into the cloaca? If so, I’d guess the bee is the man… but then bees are mostly female. I fucking give up. I’d piss in the alley.

      Isn’t the queen bee generally the only female?

        Honeybee colonies are mostly female. The Queen and Workers are female and the males (Drones) don’t actually do much, don’t have stingers, and don’t collect pollen. They are tolerated in small numbers to well… you know.

      All bees are female, except the drones which are only grown when needed.

    The sign in the right says “bees”, but the picture shows a creature with eight legs, two body segments, and no wings. That’s no bee, that’s a spider!

    If that was Poland it would be pretty understandable since nearly every bee is female* while “ptak” (bird) is widely used synonym for penis.

    *i never met anyone who wouldn’t know this, also even the word “pszczoła” (bee) is always feminine in language

      Those are both things only the females of the species do

      Worker bees (which are female) go outside and pollinate; female birds lay eggs.

    Aliens from outer space that resemble birds and bees have recently infiltrated earth and are slowly but surely taking over earth’s restrooms.
    You are neither their species, so it’s best to turn around and go home.

    This post made me realize, I’ve only ever heard “the birds and the bees” referenced, but never actually how it’s applied during sex ed.

    But uh, turns out this does not make any sense in that context either. It’s just two separate examples to explain sexuality, so bees pollinating flowers and birds laying eggs. They’re just used as examples, because they’re visible in nature and somewhat resemble the mechanics of sex.

      But in those examples, the bee is pollinating and the bird is conceiving, so it would make sense.

        Ah, I thought there would be a male bird involved still, but I guess that example just explains ovulation. Still quite optimistic that everyone shares the same understanding here, though…

      They should have used the eggplants and the peaches. Before cell phone emojis that would have made things even more confusing. Then Piper Perry could do the putting the condom on the eggplant demonstration, and every boy could feel inadequate for the next several decades.

      I always thought the bird part was related to plant reproduction, too. Like how birds eat fruit and shit the seeds out lol
