Godzilla isn't human therefore human labels aren't appropriate. Please the correct term Parthenogenesis next time, thank you for bring politically correct.

This is proof that trans people want to DESTROY western society and traditional family values

What if its a seahorse situation?

He is sexually male, but the eggs are deposited via a female Goddesszilla with an ovipositor into an... orifice... of some kind... which is full of semen, and then these eggs develop inside the male, who then 'births' them?

The males do occasionally eat their young after loosing them from their... gestation pouch.

So....hope you're ok with normalized occasional cannibalistic infanticide.

Goddesszilla is a movie I didn't know I wanted. I hope they go into graphic detail about the 'Zilla reproductive cycle

The mating procedure looks like this, but doubled or mirrored.

Maybe the Godzilla breath isn't a laser at all, it's like a fish spawning so he just blasts cum everywhere and hopes those eggs get fertilized.

Bold of you to assume that in his species males don't put eggs. I say that he's a cis male that naturally lays eggs.

I've watched all the Godzilla movies multiple times and the only one I recall any egg laying in was the American one from 1998. He adopted had adopted one in the Toho movies but didn't lay it.

I felt like I remember it happening more times 🤔

After a minute of research I'm inclined to believe Godzilla egg-laying only happened in Roland Emmerich's 1998 film.

Here is some contemporary reporting about it: https://www.chicagotribune.com/1998/05/19/godzilla-lays-an-egg-does-this-surprise-you/

Big, buff and bodacious, he’s so cool he can even reproduce himself–or herself. Turns out, Godzilla’s a hermaphrodite.

Consistent with the mythology, this giant lizard is a mutant by-product of nuclear radiation. As the only member of its species to have survived a bomb test in French Polynesia, Godzilla must assume male and female reproductive functions to maintain the lineage.

Why Godzilla feels compelled to travel all the way to Manhattan to lay its eggs is a mystery not clearly explained in the script, but, like any Sinatra fan, the monster probably thought, “If I can make it there, I’ll make it anywhere.” So, it was off to New York, New York, where–like the Knicks–the creature lays a lot of eggs in Madison Square Garden.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy4YFaCFGoM This video covers the various eggs in the Godzilla franchise. Most of them are Mothra but it has the ones that from Son of Godzilla, Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II, and the Roland Emmerich movie, which lines up with with I remembered. The origins of the Son of Godzilla and Mechagodzilla II ones are not stated but it's never implied that he laid them.

Babe wake up, new transition method just dropped (offer only valid if you are an ancient sleeping lizard)
