Can kryptonite ultimately lead to radiation? Let’s say Lois wore some sort of a pendant around her neck made of a small shard of kryptonite; could the baby suffer any serious damage?

We’ve seen Lex Luthor get cancer through this, so can the same happen to Lois? She might be taking precaution to have a normal pregnancy, but wouldn’t she be harming the kid by wearing a kryptonite pendant?

That’s why I think if she wants to try and stay safe they could opt for magic; Superman is afterall prone to it, so who’s to say the baby won’t? So I don’t get why they don’t make the couple have a baby already…there’s so much they can do, the possibilities are endless.

If y’all want the answer,look at ‘Superman II’ and ‘Superman Returns’.

What most people fail to understand is the nature of Superman’s powers. During infancy or newborn stage, Clark Kent is not strong or fast. In fact, he’s no different from any other infants. AS his body starts to absorb yellow sun radiation or sunlight, only then is the time his powers start to manifest itself. As illustrated in comic books and in the movie Superman Returns, the first major manifestation of Clark’s abilities was around 7-10 years old and it started with super strength. It is possible for Lois to carry a kryptonian child as the fetus still does not have super strength. Also, a red sun light generator can remove kryptonian powers as red sunlight prevents the kryptonian body’s absorption of yellow sunlight. The only imposibilities left to dealt with are the issues of Superman’s ejaculation and DNA compatability but in a comic book world, nothing’s impossible, if all else fails then retcon the damn situation.

I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see Lois pregnant in the comics, considering how many major elements (flight, Kryptonite, their marriage) came from other media.

As for their sex life (the whole “Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex” issue), one thing everyone seems to forget is that Kal-El has an extraordinary amount of control over his physiology. He’s been seen to be able to slow down or stop his heart and to control his breathing (I seem to remember that during deep space journeys he wears a breath mask and breathes once an hour). Not to mention that, never once in seventy years have we seen him primping his hair, and yet when he changes from Clark to Superman, there’s the good ol’ spit-curl, right in the middle of his forehead.

Given all that, even if his uncontrolled orgasms were shotgun-like, I see no reason why he wouldn’t be able to tone them down to non-lethal levels. That, of course, raises other issues; I could see him going at it for hours, long after Lois is all orgasmed-out, just because he could. And here’s a sick thought to leave you with; if he ever wanted to rebuild the Kryptonian race, would he approach the only other surviving Kryptonian on earth–his cousin, Kara, Supergirl?

And what would be her reaction?
