From (2nd-wave feminist) Sonia Johnson's "The Ship That Sailed Into the Living Room: Sex and Intimacy Reconsidered" (p. 97):
We [=women] not only have the unique power to create new human beings, but we have the power to create them ourselves without the assistance of men. Although knowledge that this is true is lost to conscious memory, I think that parthenogenesis still happens on occasion - by choice as well as by accident - and that we bore children parthenogenetically for hundreds of thousands of years at the beginning of human history... Men have always known that women do not need them for anything, and women have always known that men need them for everything.

I guess Mary was not the only one to do this. Catholics are in for a big surprise.
I love how some 2nd-wave feminists re-read the sacred cows of Christian history in weird but wonderful ways.
