I'm inclined to leave the bee/flower image as is even though the male/female element is gone. I don't know if it's actually breaking down the metaphor or not.I don't see the females pollinating the flowers thing being an issue here, since it's the female penetrating either way -- but then you read my interpretation, and it's a little strange. But that second detail would make a wonderful, wonderful sequel.![]()
And, I discovered this: "Should a drone succeed in mating, he soon dies because the penis and associated abdominal tissues are ripped from the drone's body after sexual intercourse." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drone_(bee)
