: : I was asked this question today in class. what does the saying the birds and bees have to do with having sex. I would greatly apperciate any info anyone has on this subject. thanks alot. beth

: Birds do it. Bees do it. Even educated fleas do it.

Let's fall in love. (Or at least I think that's the way it goes.) I'm with Bob on the pollinator idea. (See previous post.) The last time this subject came up, I looked in my reference books and couldn't find the phrase. I found that surprising since it's such a common phrase.
