Actually, it is EXTREMELY possible that, when the Bible was being translated, mistranslation occurred. For example, the word for "young woman" is thought to have accidentally been translated to "virgin." While some think it was an innocent mistake, others think it was done on purpose in order to provide "proof" of Jesus being Christ.
Also, it is mentioned once or twice in the Bible that Jesus was a son of a mortal man, which means that he HAS to have had a father. This also shows some of the contradictions found everywhere within the Bible.

Jesus peace be upon him was born without any male intervention. So that means Mary never has sex with anyone.
How did she has a kid?
Well, only two religions believed in the Jesus's miraculous born, which are Christianity and Islam.
According to Christianity, the Holy Spirit or some prefer to call, the Holy Ghost is mystically made Virgin Mary pregnant.
'And the angle answered and said to her, "the Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee".' Bible:Luke:33
According to Islam, there is no need for the God to make such a pointless effort, to send the Holy Ghost to overshadow Mary to impregnant her. For God is so powerful, He that created Adam (peace be upon him) from nothing didn't need to send Holy Spirit or whatsoever, nor did He need to implant His seed(sperm) in order to make Mary pregnant. The Quran revealed what the angle said.
'He said(the angle),"Even so, Allah (God) createth what He willeth, when He had decreed a plan, He but to it, "Be", and it is.". Quran:surah al Nisa(chp 4), verse 157.

Come on. At least have a bit of originality. Christians confess to a Virgin Mary w/o sex. How she got pregnant is in Matthew and Luke. Check out history for the first 400 years after Jesus. All the arguments are there.

Well, there is such a thing as a "vrgin birth" where there isn't ever any actual contact or penetration - so the woman remains a virgin- but the semen can get in the general area any number of ways, and since it's moist for a lady there, it will basically travel "Upriver".
So, this is totally possible im Mary's case. She was supposedly imseminated by an angel - that's a practical way that would have worked.

No she was always a virgin. The Holy Spirit initiated the growth of one of her eggs by his power. He is responsible for Jesus conception. Scripture says that he overshadowed her much like the Holy Spirit did in the dessert of Sinai with the tent. When the Holy Spirit came down they said a great cloud was there but it would have been just pure power.

Unless she concieved through parthenogenisis
or Joseph impregnated her
and since virgin birth meant something totally different back then than it does now...
There is only one other option....she was raped (by the holy spirit)
blasphemy you might say (but then so is impregnating a married man's (joseph's) wife, but when an invisivible voice or appearition apears and tells you that yo will concieve my only child..come on now really..
that is the ancient version of a date rape drug

Mary did not have sex to get pregnant with Jesus. God implanted his seed in her, so she gave birth to Jesus. This does not make Mary the mother of God. Think of her as a surrogate mother. She was a servant doing the will of her Lord.
I'm sure she had sex when she married Joseph.

Mary was a young virgin who gave birth to a Son, conceived by the Holy Spirit.
Jesus was born without the sin nature, so was tempted like us but didn't sin (Like the first Adam did).
He Is the Lamb of God without blemish (sin) and raised from the dead because He was sinless and death could not keep Him in the Grave. (The wages of sin is death.)
