No, but they can have what is called a "Hysterical pregnancy". Hysterical pregnancy has been known since antiquity. Hippocrates wrote of 12 women who "believed they were pregnant" in 300 BC. Several names have been given to this condition including spurious pregnancy, feigned pregnancy, imaginary pregnancy, hysterical pregnancy, and grosses nerveuse. John Mason Good coined the term pseudocyesis from the Greek words pseudes (false) and kyesis (pregnancy) in 1923. Flanders Dunbar defined pseudocyesis in 1938 as "a condition in which a woman firmly believes herself to be pregnant and develops objective pregnancy signs in the absence of pregnancy." There are several theories regarding the cause of pseudocyesis, the following of which are the most widely accepted: Conflict theory; Wish fulfillment theory, and Depression theory.

No.
A team of American and Irish researchers have discovered that some female sharks can reproduce without having sex, the first time that scientists have found the unusual capacity in such an ancient vertebrate species.
The sharks reproduce asexually through the process known as parthenogenesis. Researchers have observed parthenogenesis in certain species of birds, reptiles, amphibians and bony fishes, but the new finding suggests that vertebrates' ability to reproduce without sex evolved much earlier than scientists had thought.
However, mammals cannot reproduce asexually.

Woman have such powerful minds that they probably can lol I guess that there are false pregancies, not sure what causes them. The easiest way is to be thinking about sex with their fantasy man while having sex so I guess they can lol

My mother says SHE can. She had 14 pregnancies (only 4 children). She claimed that she got pregnant using every known form of birth control (Obviously she never tried abstinance) lol.

No. There must be some action like putting yours into hers and reach something called orgasm. Your sperm will swim thru her fallopian tube to a waiting egg in her ovary. Once they meet, the sperm fertilizes the egg and ovulation occurs, there and then, she's pregnant!

Yes. they absolutely can. When you think about sex magical semen, that is just waiting for a woman to think about sex, floats up an impregnates you. So be careful. No one will believe you when you tell them your conception is immaculate. Cause we all know its the magical semen.

Not to say that it's absolutely impossible but the odds of a woman conceiving without actually having intercourse are very,very slim.
