∙ 13y agoThere are some varieties of wasp which do not have a sting, such as the binodoxys communis which lives in China, also sawflies are a form of stingless wasp. Even for those varieties of wasp which do sting, only the females (queen and workers) will have a sting, the males (drones) do not.
New Answer:
I went to the Natural History Museam in London and there I found out that the only female wasps sting, Hornets don't and neither do male wasps. It is probably true, however I can't be sure.
