The way I heard it, at least according to some, the birds and the bees is a metaphorical story sometimes told to children in an attempt to explain the mechanics and consequence of sexual intercourse. According to that story, a baby is created when a bee stings a bird. In some cases the choice of birds and bees may be because they provide a ready metaphor for insemination (pollination) and childbirth (hatching).

Fabulous song! Just love it! :D Didn't Eartha Kitt sing it? ???
As for the birds and bees thing, I'm with you, David. Never did understand what that was all about. Firm believer in calling a spade a shovel, me. :-\ ;) :)
Some friends named their pet cat, Eartha Kat. They recently had to take her to the vet. On arrival, they were asked the cat's name. When they responded, straight faced, "Eartha. Eartha Kat," apparently the receptionist had a great deal of difficulty retaining a professional demeanour! She lost the plot! Fits of laughter, apparently! :laugh:
:laugh: :laugh:
Wait a minute! Don't tell me Kerry!
These are gay friends of yours?
