These recent additions seem a little odd, especially the first. There can't be any medical reason why rape versus consensual sex affords children. I also don't have the ST:III novelization so I can't go back and check that one, either... --Captain Savar 13:43, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

The writer was wearing their reading glasses sideways -- the TWoK novelization states that no Vulcan woman -would- give herself up to mating with a Romulan, thus they must be coerced with drugs, and that a Romulan succeeding in such a humiliation and to sire a child by such means would get social status. There was nothing about the unlikelihood of a natural pregnancy from a normal mating, only that a Vulcan would not allow that. -- Captain MKB 14:14, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
