Lego world. How do they reproduce?
It is difficult to find statistics for the ratio of Lego men and women in the general population but from a non-scientific survey, I get the impression that Lego men vastly outnumber Lego women. Yet clearly they do reproduce. Here is a picture of a pregnant Lego woman.
Setting aside the gender ratio, it is not obvious how Lego people actually reproduce. If we look at Legoid anatomy there is no evidence of suitable appendages.
EDIT in response to the question being put on hold.
For example, questions are welcome that are about: ... How to achieve a specified effect in a defined world, including by the use of technology or magic, while maintaining in-universe consistency.
In order to create a realistic Lego-based world, I wish to develop a consistent in-universe description that explains how these beings reproduce. Therefore I am not looking for an explanation that relies on human intervention. If the Legoids themselves can perform the necessary biology or technology then that is fine.
Using your knowledge of Lego, biology, pseudo-science or any other plausible mechanism (possibly including magic) can you offer a suggestion that
explains or suggests the mechanism of Lego reproduction.
explains the high preponderance of Lego males? If they were like humans we would expect a roughly 50-50 ratio.
EDIT 25 Aug 15
For these purposes, I assume that Lego people cannot see or comprehend humans - who can be considered to live in a different dimension. They see only each other and their building materials. The results of human actions (but not direct experience of humans themselves) are presumably part of their mythology and put down to natural or supernatural causes.
