Little is known of the how the bigfoot begets. Some witnesses claim they have firsthand
knowledge of his technique, but nothing has come to light that is reliable
evidence. What is indisputable, however,
is that there can’t be just one.
Sasquatch must procreate.
Since we are relatively certain that it will turn out to be mammalian, there
likely are both female and male of the species.
Generally, when we speak of “bigfoot” we think in male terms, but it is
believed that the subject in the Patterson-Gimlin film was a female. The creature is described with large, hair
covered breasts. Author Jan Klement
speaks to gender in describing a series of encounters in Pennsylvania in
1972. He claims to have seen, and in
fact buried, a creature he believed to be bigfoot. In his sightings, the creature was decidedly
male, having at one point a fully erect penis.
Klement also relates that he witnessed the creature attempting to have
sex with a cow.

Most reports of sightings include no reference to sexuality
or genitalia whatsoever. Likely our
modest society purposely leaves these details out, and researchers are
reluctant to push for further information. Pop culture isn’t so reluctant. Toronto based
artist Allyson Mitchell had a touring exhibit of sculpture involving “Ladies
Sasquatch” in 2009 (pictured). McMaster
Museum of art Curator Carla Garnet said Mitchell "symbolizes the mythical
feminine as something not easily captured or domesticated, or harnessed to
sell, yet undeniably powerful and attractive." Loren Coleman once suggested that female
researchers might be more successful than their male counterparts because of pheromones,
suggesting that Sasquatch might be threatened by the scent of a man but less so
by the scent of a woman. Reports of abduction by Bigfoot is, ironically, much
more common in men than in women, however.
Sasquatch has been involved in photo shoots by Playboy, articles in
Penthouse, and countless comic books. There
is even a “test” to see how well you would “make out” with a Bigfoot available here.
The Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization (BFRO) has
postulated that, based on track charting, Sasquatch infants are born very small
and live with the mother until puberty, proposed as beginning around age
10. They suggest that offspring are
spaced about 5 years apart with a mating season generally in May and June. Their
article on Bigfoot Physiology lacks published supporting evidence, so for now
this has to be viewed as pure conjecture.
Research on the reproductive ability and methodology of
Sasquatch is an important part of the overall research of the creature. Reports of these large, hairy, man-like
beasts have been coming for centuries all over the globe. No species could account for this volume of
observation unless the animal is sustainable.
Robert Aumann and Werner G¨uth write that for a species to be
sustainable, its habitat must also be sustainable. Certainly there are plenty of deeply forested
areas worldwide that could sustain small groups of this type of animal. They define sustainable as:
(i) belonging to a
species which has not (yet) become extinct,
(ii) that one’s genetic program is well adjusted to the
habitat (including the
population composition of one’s own species), in which one
lives, and
(iii) that the habitat is used by all its inhabitants in a
sustainable way.
To remain sustainable, the creatures must also be able to
stand up to any predators, be adaptable to naturally occurring and man-made
challenges, and of course, reproduce. It
is suggested that there must be at least 2000 Sasquatch to maintain a healthy
population. This would mean at least
2000 in each area where repeated sightings occur. It is crucial that along with simply proving
the creature exists, researchers also consider how they procreate.
Bigfoot!: The True Story of Apes in America, By Loren Coleman
This is a category where you begin to see real distinctive differences in geographic populations. To be brief, penis sizes seem to have something to do with the size of the head of the infant since the penis has to function in a vagina that is so big, and females that bear infants with bigger heads tend to have bigger vaginas. The Western Sasquiatches may be bigger, but their cranial capacity is generally less and they are the ones that tend to have the pointed conical heads. The Eastern Bigfoots have bigger heads, larger cranial capacities, and crania that are not only better filled in proportion, the top of the head stands up higher free of the torso when seen in silhouette. And the equipment of the Eastern kinds of Bigfoots is at least on a par with himan males, sometimes said to be larger; The Westerners have pretty dinky ones by comparison. And most apes have small penises in comparison to humans, although their scrotums can be quite huge.
