The chances of Stan and Kyle having an mpreg baby with red hair are pretty low. Though negniahn points out to me that both Stan's Uncle Jimbo and Aunt Flo have red hair, I would argue that Jimbo's hair is more brownish than not. Also, Aunt Flo is an old woman so she's probably dyeing her hair. I have pointed out that Aunt Flo is actually a personification ( Read more... )

I always imagined their mpreg baby would have messy black hair and green eyes. Obviously if it was a boy he'd get made fun of every day in school for looking like Harry Potter, so when he ends up needing glasses he throws a giant temper tantrum and Kyle's like "maybe we should get him contacts" and Stan's like "Dude he's six years old."

But at the same time, mpreg is unrealistic in itself and we're going to ignore genetics anyway by imagining a world where this is possible. It ends up being okay, imo, to ignore how dominant and recessive genes work... because whatever, it's mpreg, logic has already been abandoned. RED HAIR FOR EVERYBODY!

Kyle would almost certainly want to offer his child contacts and a nose job at age 6. "He won't suffer like I suffered!" etc.

Yes, I know. I suppose it comes down to two things for me:

1. I see no reason why genetics wouldn't apply to mpreg? Yes, it's some sciencey/magical AU technology, but if Stan and Kyle are going to have a biobaby then surely the laws of genetics would apply anyhow. I don't know why I feel this way since it makes no sense, but, that's just how I approach it.

2. I just don't think they would have a child with red hair! Perhaps I'm against the fetishizing of red hair in general.

But their mystical mpreg baby must be a special snowflake!!!!!!

Seriously though, I totally get where you're coming from. Even if the actual act of mpreg is ludicrous, it's best to keep some semblance of realism involved.

Well, duh, it would be a special snowflake by virtue of being Stan and Kyle's ass baby. What else is there?
