Who came up with the retarded idea that a clearly asexual creature is female? And why? Just because they are mindless drones?

Worker bees can become queens as needed. They don't, because other workers will actively destroy the eggs of any female besides the queen.

Some worker bees can lay eggs but they won't be fertilized and will only produce drones

Wow I never actually knew this. How do they manage to have enough genetic variation so that they aren't extremely susceptible to disease? Or is there some other mechanism that prevents this

Their queen fucks the drones made by another queen from another hive, the queen's drones fucks the queens outside.

The drone literally dies while having sex in air, genetic variation stays constant.

Usually hives will exchange drones with other hives. Around autumn each hive will kick their drones out, who will then fly to other, unrelated hives and inseminate the queen, after which all the workers die and the hive goes into hibernation. I believe the queen will also keep some of the sperm over the winter when they'll breed a new queen to start a colony.

Because a stinger is a modified version of ovipositor, and only females have ovipositors.

They wouldn't be asexual because they can't reproduce like an anemone can.

Anyone of them can become queen and reproduce, though the consequences result in lots of death.

From what i know they can decide to grow a queen by feeding a female larvae (they know how to recognize a female larvae and which one of them is genetically more similar to the rest of the colony) with a lot of royal jelly, more nutriment than any other worker larvae.
So it's true, any one of them have the potential to become a queen, but only if they feast on a lot of stuff while developing.

Asexual is still a shit term because they don't reproduce like bacteria do.
