    Bee if you want to get stung, bird if you want to get shat on.

    Either way, you’re fucked.

    Birds lay eggs and bees pollinate.

    For the traditional story, birds are girls, bees are boys.

    Hence the common UK slang of calling girls “birds” or in the US “chicks”.

    Ironic given that bee sexual reproduction is probably the least analogous to humans in the entire animal kingdom and the VAST majority of bees that you encounter outside the nest (and the only bees with stingers" are sterile female worker bees.

    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

    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!

    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.

      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.

      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…

    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.

      Those are both things only the females of the species do

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