lmao, that reminds me of a 2nd century AD Roman novel, Vera Historia. It’s kind of a proto-sci-fi story. At one point, the protagonist goes up to the moon and meets the moon men - they’re all men, and the king offers his son to wed the (male) protagonist. What’s more…
On one part of the moon babies are born from men’s swollen calves, delivered dead but brought to life “by putting it in the wind with its mouth open”. A people known as the Arboreals have a different method: a man’s right genital gland is cut off, planted, and from it “grows a very large tree of flesh, resembling the emblem of Priapus”, and from its fruit of huge acorns men are ‘shelled’.
It’s like that comic where the men are so manly they only have children with other men don’t ask how it works I don’t know and I don’t want to.
