Artist's commentary

    Homusaya~

    A commission for Emperor_Niro (I'm not taking any more commissions at the moment~)
    It's big boobs Homura and Sayaka, looking mature and married and enjoying each other's company... Being requested to draw Sayaka suits me fine, and I haven't drawn Homura much before so it was a fun request, thank you!

    I'm sorry, but given the level of interest in umm... human reproduction, it seems people would pay more attention to how it actually works.

    The gory details:

    Show

    The chance of both of them getting their one egg a month down there at exactly the time and getting them to run right into each other is astronomically small. Even if they did, the eggs probably wouldn't be viable at that point and would be coming out along with a bunch of bloody... well, you-know-what.

    If somehow the eggs were still viable when they reached the bottom of their vaginas, and they did come in contact with each other, the eggs would pretty much just bounce off each other. When a sperm cell contacts the outer layers of the egg cell, species-specific receptors on the egg detect the presence of a (compatible) sperm cell and modify the permeability of the cell membrane to allow the sperm cell to "dock" with the egg. Once one sperm cell is docked, the egg changes the permeability of its outer layers again to prevent additional sperm from getting in there and putting extra chromosomes and such in the mix. (Some freaky stuff can happen if the chromosome count gets out of whack, which usually results in the final product not surviving.) Another egg would not have the correct docking interface to get the things to combine naturally.

    Finally, even if somehow the eggs were able to combine their DNA and stuff, then the combined zygote would have to somehow get back up into the uterus of one or the other of them and implant in the wall. Good luck with that.

    Unless they could use their magical girl abilities to throw things at each other at the cellular level and take some artistic license with biology, this wouldn't work as a reproductive strategy.

    Hi, I'm the artist~ I was commissioned to do this one, and I believe those two pictures were commissioned by the same person. So not a trend as much as one guy's thing~

    Putting aside the funky commission requests, I like Sayaka a lot, and she looks really pretty in your art! :-)

    Woah, nice of you for answering. I like your style, I'll be checking your art constantly! (A friend of mine already follows you in Twitter, lel).

    I'm that one guy, and while I hope this type of thing will become more popular in the future, right now it's just me.

    I don't think anyone seriously thinks that humans can reproduce by parthenogenesis except through magic or sufficiently advanced technology. Pretty much any image with the ips_cells tag depends on either magic, super-science, or just plain wishful thinking, and in any case is probably fueled by high-gain yuri goggles.
