"most intentional reproduction is already non-sexual"? You mean immaculate conception has replaced sex for intentional parents? This makes artificial insemination non-sexual. Or perhaps you mean non-coital? I thought sexual reproduction meant having children via sperm and egg as opposed to asexual parentage via cloning. --J. R.
