I had a smart ass reply. I decided to go with the norm..
It's a dumb euphemism. I mean really when you look at it, the birds and the bees stand for the penis. The flower is the woman that gets fertilized buy the birds and the bees.
So really, when you sit down to have the talk about the 'birds and bee's' you are really saying "lets talk about the penis and what it can do"
Note, there is nothing about the flower, capable of making other flowers.
I am pretty sure that whomever made this analogy was one of the writes for the bible too. It's always all about men.
I just re-read..
Buy = By
Sorry!
oh great.... now I'm going to picture hummingbirds darting in and out of flowers when I go visit Good Vibrations. Thanks raen.
