Guest guest Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 So these dianics, how do they reproduce?. If they happen to have a male offspring, would they perform sex change on him without his permission(ofcourse, a child is too young to decide on such things).

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 In hindu puranas, there's pandu's wife kunthi, getting offspring from astral beings. Pandu had a curse which prevented him from mating with kunthi. With dianics, i believe it's more of secrecy than mystery. If they reproduce they get the male sperm from somewhere, but they dont use the natural harmonius ways for doing this.
