There's some censorship going on in the newly popular feminist subs and it needs to be openly addressed.

Off-topic to your point, but drone bees only mate with the queen. If you wanted to gauge her "interest", it's the queen herself that leaves the hive to go on mating flights.

I was talking about solidary bees, not eusocial hive honeybees. There are lots of species of bees! There is a species of solidary bee that lives near me and I saw this occur firsthand after reading about it, which is part of why it was on my mind.

I don't know all that much about how drone males tend to behave in eusocial species... I'd imagine they behave similar to sperm cells.
