    I was stung once by a bee when I was a kid and my mother threw mud on it. While the mud dried, it drew out the stinger.

    anyhow, mad props to bees. They are heroes more ways than one. I actually find this quite inspirational. No matter how small and insignificant you may feel you are, small acts can still have big consequences.

            Drones don’t have stingers. Queens and workers have stingers. Queens are from worker larva that are fed royal jelly that transforms them into a queen that is capable of reproduction. Workers are technically female but they’re closer to asexual.

            So, that badass enby ace bee gave that motherfucker what for.

              You are right if it’s a honey bee. There are many other species of bees that do have males with stingers. For example many solitary bees (live alone rather than in a hive) have stingers though aren’t known to sting people unless swallowed like in the OP.

              The British isles have over 200 species of solitary bees so it’s very possible the bee hero in question here was a male :)
