Can elder women impregnate other sims?

I know they can't fall pregnant but with that update that lets woman-woman and man-man couples to have babies, I was just wondering if elder women can impregnate others.

I guess they're trying to be "progressive".
I guess I have to test it out with some other sims first to be completely sure.
It's opt-in. Unless you have GTW (for alien pregnancy) or choose to make your female Sims able to impregnate others, this game in which plants eat and spit people out, ghosts wander about in your house, and people spin in a circle to change clothes will not deny basic biology.
Fun fact: While sims are based on humans, sims are not humans. The advanced digestive system, plasma cells, three day gestation period and the fact that they don't seem to need kidneys are dead giveaways. Also, the physical laws of The Sims universe are different than our own.
I might believe you if there weren't people in the real world doing the same thing.
Without dialysis? And it is okay if you don't believe me, but it is true. Sims are not humans.
I meant denying biology.
Oh, you're virtue signaling. Never mind then. Let me know if you want to talk about The Sims.
Well when the devs can keep their politics out of the game I can shut up about it.
Again, they aren't humans. And so human politics don't apply. I suggest refraining from trying to interject your own in that respect. But if you are bent on vicariously living out some sort of political fantasy I would suggest searching the extensive library of mods. There is little doubt in my mind that you could find enough components to whip up a "mod soup" to cater to any sort of dystopia one may desire.
I respectfully disagree with you. I think it's clear that sims are humans. The sims is marketed as a life simulator. Why else would the devs need to call for assistance from certain LGBT groups to ensure they are being politically correct when adding certain features to the game? It's because they know sims are human and represent real people.
There is a political slant that is fairly obvious to anyone without extreme bias. Take a look at the political career put in the game. All causes are real-life left leaning ones.
If I haven't made it clear before, let me state it once again -- I am not interested in talking about your fears and prejudices. Such things are beyond the scope of this forum as stated by its rules. As such, I will try for a third time to turn aside your attempted derail to return to the topic at hand.
Sims do not share the same biology as humans. It is therefore sensible that they are not bound by the same rules of biology.
Yes it's a massive conspiracy designed to oppress you and take away your rights.
Hopefully we can move on now.
I believe that's your line.
Sims produce exclusively liquid waste, meaning that their digestive systems are more efficient than our own. Furthermore, an opportunity in the The Sims 3 resulted in the loss of kidneys without any repercussions on health, meaning that the kidney is superfluous in sims biology. And then, of course, there is this...
As BlueR0se mentioned, male sims are somehow able to host off-world reproduction without harmful physical effects of both gestation and birth. It is very clear that sims biology is different than our own.
