Do bees have orgasms ?

This is fucking stupid but my 40 year old brother told me that bees have orgasms and there face changes or some shit.I was pissing myself i couldnt stop laughing is it true does anyone know because he does tend to exaggerate.I dont believe it.

Does the Pope shit in a phonebox?

Who cares if they have orgasms, i hate them....... lol

I wonder what a bee having an orgasm would look like... and do they smoke tiny little cigarettes afterwards?

I bet you they get kinky and pour honey all over each other.

do they have little toes that curl....hmmmm interesting question

lol yes im thinking he is full of shit you wouldnt believe what comes out of his mouth sometimes.

i bet they have orgasms to make enjoyable. cause why would a bee wanna screw a bee, bees are wierd looking.

bee info
I don't know if they have little bee-gasms with honey flavored marlboros after (damn good thought though), but this says the male ones die after they stick it to the queen. Hell of a way to go out.

only the queen has sex ?

The above information stands correct!

Man, I'm so stoned I ended up reading the whole page haha, bees are cool.

I saw two wasps having sex....they just drifted into the air all cloud like and then would land and do it again...wierd!

I don't know if this is in the bee info link page thing because I'm too lazy to look but the male bees die after having sex because their "thingy-ma-bob" is torn off when they are done..if I remember correctly

lmao i hope not,

ok r u ready for the truth......The life cycle of bumblebees begins in the spring when the queen bee rises from hibernation. At this time the queen bee is the one who does all the work because there are no worker bees to do the work yet. She searches for a place to build her nest and she builds the honeypots. She also does the foraging to collect nectar and pollen. Bumblebee colonies die off in the autumn, after raising a last generation of queens, which suvive individually in found hiding spots.

With honeybees, which survive winter as a colony, the queen begins egg laying in winter, to prepare for spring. This is probably triggered by day length. She is the only fertile female, and deposits all the eggs from which the other bees are produced. Except for her one mating flight or to establish a new colony, the queen rarely leaves the hive after the larva have become full grown bees. The queen deposits each egg in a cell prepared by the worker bees. The egg hatches into a small larva which is fed by nurse bees (worker bees who maintain the interior of the colony). After about a week (depending on species), the larva is sealed up in its cell by the nurse bees. After another week (again, depending on species), it will emerge an adult bee.

Both workers and queens are fed royal jelly during the first three days of the larval stage. Then workers are switched to a diet of pollen and nectar or diluted honey, while those intended for queens will continue to receive royal jelly. This causes the larva to develop to the pupa stage more quickly, while being also larger and fully developed sexually. Queen breeders consider good nutrition during the larval stage to be of critical importance to the quality of the queens raised, good genetics and sufficient number of matings also being factors. During the larval and pupal stages, various parasites can attack the pupa/larva and destroy or mutate it.

Peanut-like queen brood cells
are extended outward from the broodcomb.Queens are not raised in typical horizontal brood cells of the honeycomb. They are specially constructed to be much larger, and have a vertical orientation. As the queen finishes her larval feeding, and pupates, she moves into a head downward position, from which she will later chew her way out of the cell. At pupation the workers cap or seal the cell. Just prior to emerging from their cells, young queens can often be heard "piping." This is considered likely to be a challenge to other queens for battle.

Worker bees are infertile females. Worker bees secrete the wax used to build the hive, clean and maintain the hive, raise the young, guard the hive and forage for nectar and pollen.

In honeybees, the worker bees have a modified ovipositor called a stinger with which they can sting to defend the hive, but the bee will die soon after.

Drone bees are the male bees of the colony. Drone honeybees do not forage for nectar or pollen. The primary purpose of a drone bee is to fertilize a new queen. Drones mate with the queen in flight. They die immediately after mating. This is a very painful process for the drone bees, the female bees basically stick there stinger into the drones back and extract the nutrients need for fertilizing. In other words the Queen sucks him dry.

In some species, drones are suspected of playing a contributing role in the temperature regulation of the hive. Drone bees have no stinger, since a stinger is actually a modified ovipositor.

Queens live on an average about three years. The workers have but a brief existence, not three months long on an average.

Honeybee queens release pheromones to regulate hive activities, and worker bees also produce pheromones for various communications.


Solitary, communal, and quasisocial Bees

Summer knows her hymenoptera. Excellent post!

WOW!!!! all i was going to ask if they sputter out pollen, but DAMN!!! nevermind.

That is quite amazing 4 a 1st post. Summer, did ya just join the forum to post that? Any q's I have about bees I know where to go :D

i just watched a channel 13 special when my cable was out it was pretty cool....but thanks guys......

"cause why would a bee wanna screw a bee?"

LMAO, what a cool question! :D
