What I imagine hymenoptera conservatives to be like: "There are only three genders, female reproductive, male reproductive, and worker"
Some ant: "What about super majors?"
Some other ant: "Also gamergates, are they workers or reproductives?"
Conservative hymenoptera: "There are only three genders, female reproductive, male reproductive, and worker!"

Some termite *opens mouth* …

Conservative hymenoptera, shouting: "There are only three genders, female reproductive, male reproductive, and worker!!!!!"

plus the misconceptions about royal jelly - it's not royalactin that makes a queen, it's /withholding/ pollen and ONLY feeding them royal jelly

so that counts for HRT :3
