[NSFW] How in the world did Genghis Khan Get So Many Women Pregnant?!

by PotatoPancakeKing

I mean he didn’t become khan until he was like 50. And he was only Khan for 21 years; meaning he could only have a harem for about two decades. And in the later bits he’d be getting elderly meaning likely less women each day right.

And it’s not like he could spend ALL of his day fucking 24/7 right? Like he had battles to command and locations to ride to.

So how in the world can he fuck SO MANY WOMEN that 1% of the world is related to him

This is based on a common factoid, but it is one not usually understood well. This older thread touches on the premise here https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/ccgjb2/how_did_scientist_specifically_pinpoint_genghis/etnd7q0/
