Having children without a man

Men seem to be going out of style. Women can easily do without them. 

Sex is still popular, as entertainment, but not as a necessity. And I want to explain the difference. 

It used to be that couples married to have children. Children appeared naturally, but legitimate children took some serious social arrangements. 

But what about children that just show up without any prior planning? I'm glad you asked because this is a common occurrence. Cleopatra, for example, had many children born this way, to some important men. The Bible is full of stories of important men and their concubines. 

Everyone wants children, but only a few could afford them. 

What happens to the rest? That depended on God and his Chosen Ones. You better be on the right side of Him, or you got your balls cut off.
