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.
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
It’s not gendered, it’s birds for turds and bees for pees.
i like this one, very inclusive
What if I need to throw up?
#everybodypoops
Not bees, they pees
Kim doesn’t poop
He does, it’s just pure gold and orchids.
Kinda nice but I would have never guessed
It doesn’t really matter, it’s all just sinks inside each one anyway.
The, female, Queen Bee is iconic.
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!
There’s my answer then! Thank you!
First set is arena, third is the wings, the come out straight with no detents like the other six legs.
Oh shit you’re right!
The gendered single person bathroom. I never understood those.
I’ve heard reasons for it like "women’s bathroom needs places to dispose of pads/tampons but, like, it’s a box on the wall. Put one in both.
Also heard reasons along the lines of “men are faster at using the bathroom so why should we need to share with women” (even though with single bathrooms the washing your hands part is the time bottleneck, not the peeing part) or just general disgust at the idea of sharing a bathroom with the other gender (have heard it from both genders).
women’s bathroom needs places to dispose of pads/tampons but, like, it’s a box on the wall
Isn’t it just a trash can? Why does it need to be on the wall?
No most men I know don’t wash their hands or if they do they just hold it under the tap for 2 seconds without any soap or anything
It doesn’t really matter ultimately, but it takes me like 10 seconds to wash my hands. Peeing almost always takes longer.
I always thought it meant ‘use the one that’s open’
Birds have a pecker!
Now try remembering that as a non-native speaker while about to shit in your pants lmao
Although I do suspect these are just gender neutral one-person bathrooms
Most bees are female so I guess women go in the bees stall
OP pic only makes sense when I think British slang for girl is bird.
But then what is a bee?
My thinking was that bees are the ones that pollinate, so male.
But they certainly don’t pollinate birds, so I don’t know where that was going either. 🫠
I’m a human being with autism and a number of other conditions that make it hard for me to interact with other people
If you’re confused it’s fine to just ask which one to use
I’ve been stuck in this exact situation at a local pub. It’s even worse when you’ve downed 3 pints so you’re simultaneously drunk and been holding it for way too long cause you had to finish explaining a friend why Marx was right.
So fucking real
Drinking gives me the superpower of peeing anywhere with no shame.
Pissed in my first bush last summer because I was stupidly drunk . Then behind a dumpster and then in another bush. Diuretics mixed with alcohol are a removed.
“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.
Get confused, shit and piss all over the floor where I stand.
Oh, I guess next time I’m supposed to use the bird one.
Only thing you can do is crack a door and take a peak.
Bees start swarming out.
British 1960s slang for a woman is “bird”. So, men are bees.
Almost guaranteed that every bee you’ve seen in the wild is female. So, women are bees
Great, so they’re both for women? Where the hell do I go?
You get to go fuck yourself, apparently…
Maybe there’s doors labeled Flowers & Trees on the other side?
In the toilet.
I think a bee is male cuz they have stingers
Male bees don’t have stingers though…
In the “teaching sex ed” way not the reality way, like why the fuck would birds and bees fuck eacother?
Because it’s hot, don’t kink shame my very specific fetish
I learned about penises and vaginas and menstruation in sex ed. Insects and avians were not covered!
Yeah, I was just trying to point out the absurdity of trying to assign gender to either of them.
Most bees people think of are worker or queen bees (female) while the birds people tend to picture are bright and colorful (males) or the songs (also typically males). On the other hand people associate birds and egg laying (so I suppose femaleish) and bees have a stinger that could symbolize a penis (though if you have a barbed and venomous penis please stay far away from me).
So I vote you pick based solely on vibes instead of gender. Hell, I vote we take it a step further and stop gendering bathrooms at all. Just put random unrelated symbols and people can pick which they like. So like one with a book, the other with cheese. Or whatever else you want. Make it a big poop related social experiment.
Bees have a stinger so I assume that’s the penis analogue.
Yes but birds have peckers
Only female bees have stingers tho
In the UK women can be called birds but it’s considered a bit tasteless nowadays.
