Bees work themselves to death. When their wings are no longer servicable because of all their forays to collect the ingredients to make honey, they are locked out of the hive and left to die. So your honey comes very dearly; one reason why vegans won’t eat honey.
All worker bees are neutered females. In some species the old workers are temporarily assigned to maintenance tasks.But it’s ridiculous to say “your honey comes very dearly; one reason why vegans won’t eat honey.”.Bees have been treating their ‘elderly’ this way for millions of years, long before humans ever appeared, and probably long after. And worker bees don’t live very long anyway . . .
All worker bees are female. Male bees are called drones. The female bees feed them and take care of them until after they’ve mated with the queen. They’ve served their purpose, and they are ignored until they die.
My problem wih a vegan diet is that vegans eat grains, fruits and vegetables. All are living organisms tethered to the earth and unable to run away. I refuse to eat anything that doesn’t have some sort of chance of running away. Eating meat not only avoids the ethical problem of eating poor helpless vegetables, but on the whole it tends to be more delicious.

Aren’t worker bees female? And male bees are only for mating?

It’s where the term ‘hive mentality’ comes from. Everything they do is for the good of the hive as a whole.
