About This Quiz
Flowers have been symbolic of romance and love for ages now and in a very weird way that's incredibly appropriate. Some of us take for granted that you might get roses on Valentine's Day, for instance, just because they're red and they smell nice and it fits. But consider what a flower is, what the function of every flower is. These are how plants reproduce. The flower entices something like a bee into the plant to aid in pollination. That's basically plant sex, right? So flowers are the reproductive organs of the plant itself. (Did early people know or appreciate that when they gave flowers to one another, or was it just the surface beauty that enticed them? Maybe it was a little bit of both.)In any event, flowers are nature's most perfect symbol for not just love and romance but the sexual side of things as well. And that being the case, surely there are one or two flowers out there that hit the ball out of the park when it comes to representing precisely what kind of person you are when things get a little bit steamy with a friend. Why not take the quiz and see which flower represents your sexual side?
