the story of the basic reality of sex

Answer 2

U probably won't get far enough down the list of answers to read my answer, but I used to raise bees for a hobby and for the honey. The only responsibility of the drone bee, (the male, who by the way, has no stinger) is to mate with the queen, on her maiden flight. She then lays eitheir fertilized or non fertilized eggs , as she crawls across the cells. She does this by noting the size of the cells. There is only minute differences in the cells, but she is able to discern the difference and lay accordingly. The fertilized eggs will be the workers and the non fertilized, the drones. The workers don not have their full reproductive organs, but if it's time for another queen, the nurse bees will feed some of the fertilized cells with royal jelly. Those cells will produce queens. The first queen to emerge will go around to the other queen cells, open them and, using her stinger for the only time in her life, and kill all ther other queens before the emerge. Since there can only be one queen to a hive, either the new queen or the old queen will take a bunch of followers and leave the hive looking for another place to call home. Thus, a swarm.

Answer 3

The "birds and the bees" isn't really a story so much as examples of reproduction (An egg laid that is then fertilized; Queen laying drone's eggs).
An ice breaker if you will, explaining how birds and bees reproduce is an interesting subject for children and not so graphic as to make an adult feel like it's too dirty to explain to them. Giving these alternate examples of reproduction for the survival of these different creatures is then a doorway to explaining where babies come from.

Answer 4

The phrase the birds and the bees (sometimes further extended to birds, bees and butterflies) has been common in the language for at least the last couple of centuries to refer in a generalised way to the natural world (do journalists still refer dismissively to the natural-history column in their journals as “the birds-and-bees department”?). The alliteration has undoubtedly helped to make it a satisfactory formulaic expression.

Fumbling attempts to explain the facts of life to children often involved analogies with birds laying eggs and bees pollinating flowers. So it’s easy to see how the expression could have turned into a sarcastic reference to such attempts.

It’s so common these days as to be a cliché. To round off this explanation, I wanted to include a note to say how old it is. This is where I got stuck. You might be astonished to discover how few reference books even mention this phrase; not one of my extensive collection of works on euphemisms and suchlike expressions includes it. Because it’s so common in its literal sense, finding euphemistic instances in digital archives involves combing through masses of irrelevant material.

If you know your song lyrics, you may have in mind that mildly risqué Cole Porter number from 1928, Let’s Do It, which has the lines “Birds do it, bees do it / Even educated fleas do it / Let’s do it, let’s fall in love”. That’s certainly got the idea. However, the first explicit use of the phrase I know of is in a newspaper, the Freeport Journal Standard, dated 1939: “A Frenchman was born sophisticated: he knows about the birds and the bees. In consequence, French films are made on a basis of artistic understanding that does not hamper the story.” I might be out by a decade or two, or even a century or two, though my impression is that it’s relatively modern.

Answer 5

The bee flits from flower to flower spreading their life giving pollen till the wife flower finds out the sob has been flitting and kicks him in the butt. The flowers wouldn't be able to make any little flowers without the bee and the bee wouldn't be able to make any honey without the pollen so they learn to live with their differences and live happily ever after. The End. Good night sweetie, sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite.
