A bee's stinger is not particularly sharp in the traditional sense; rather, it is designed for delivering venom. The stinger is barbed, which means that once it penetrates the skin, it can become lodged and remains in the victim, allowing the bee to continue injecting venom even after it flies away. This design is effective for defense, but it ultimately leads to the bee's death shortly after stinging.

Is the stinger always left in the skin?
No the stinger is not left in the skin from Wasps or Hornets. They just sting you and pull it out. Only Honey Bees leave a stinger in you. My family are beekeepers so I have been stung by many bees but since honey bees die when they loose their stinger they don't sting unless they feel threatened.
How is gender determined in bees?
Well, the difference is that the worker bees (female) and the queen bee have stingers, as the drones (male) do not. So, if a bee has a stinger, it is a female, and if it doesn't have a stinger, it is a male. Hope I helped! :)
