Yeah it's in the marriage pros section, so I assume it's the latter. And worker bees can't reproduce.

- bregma 1y agoWorker bees will reproduce when the hive queen's suppression pheremone disappears. Of course, they're not fertilized so they only produce haploid offspring, who in the bee world are all male and hence useless for anything but mating with a queen. Worker bees can't mate. But I understand the sentiment.
