Two ladybugs, Frank and Tony, are talking:

Frank: What's wrong?

Tony: We're living a lie.

Frank: Why?

Tony: We're known throughout the world as ladybugs...yet we have an aedeagus between our legs.

Frank: So?

Tony: So? We're being mis-gendered.

Frank: Miss Gender. That sounds like a biology teacher.

Tony: This isn't funny, Frank!

Frank: Lighten up.

Tony: No! I won't stand for it! I've already changed my profile on Bugbook to reflect the species I identify as.

Frank: And what's that?

Tony: Gentlemanbug.

Frank was about to ridicule Tony when a boot came down, squashing them both to death.

    I hadn’t realised until I Googled it that a ladybug is what we Brits call a ladybird and what we Norfolk boys call Bishy Bishy Barney Bees. I love them! Shame 😢
