Space Marines are, given their extensive genetic re-programming and massive influx of new organs and such, not to mention the installation of the Black Carapace... more than likely non-functional.

They're also 9 feet tall, it's unlikely that a human woman would be... accommodating

It's explicitly in Lukas' fluff IIRC. I don't have the codex on me but it goes against the established fluff of Marines not being able to/wanting to get with ladies.

I believe that happened before he was turned into a Destroying machine(space wolf).

Then you havent dated a woman from Finnland, or Norway for that mather. But back on topic.

1. Hey babe wana see how far my Iron rod can go in your cave?
2. Only in you dose duty ends
3. Suffer not the virgin to walk

Open thighs are like a castle's gate unguarded.

Brother SRM wrote:Also, Space Wolves booze and wench and the like;

The only passing reference to post transformation urges is p20 present SW codex:

It is only when Svengir makes a casual pass at one of thier women........." and even then I think its likely just the Wolves at play rather than actually going to have sex.

Also interestingly p8 of the same codex has this to say about Russ and his court:

"by Warlords and the most beautiful of women" but then its a Saga and they might be their to look good and decorate the court of a Warlord of Fenris.

but outside of the Astartes - sex and romance continues in the 40 universe

From a biological perspective some space marines are likely fertile. They were once and still are mostly human. It might be like a chihuahua and a St. Bernard, but it probably can happen. Also given the many planets humans have colonized there is probably one with 7 ft. amazonian babes (i.e. Wonder Woman). Tall guy short woman happens all the time.

Also there is no guarantee that the junk is scaled up at the same rate as the rest of the body. Marines might have giant Land raiders to compensate for some thing else.

Even if marines can't find a partner, that makes for a good story. That's a lot of frustration to hold in for a very long time given some marine's life spans.

You could have a marine villain who rapes to release his crazy frustrations.

One thing is clear in 40K getting it on is practiced often just to provide a decent death count in the fluff. Some one has to populate all those exterminated worlds.

Lady: look at that skull that you have, oh its so grimdark.
Guardsman: its no big deal, i found it on the battlefield about 3 weeks ago...needed a little cleaning, but nbd.
Lady:Wow, I have always found skulls to be very interesting!
Guardsman:I could take you back to my place, I have a whole collection of them.
Lady: What are we waiting for?!?

Guys I have it!

That show, dating in the dark... Thats how dating in 40k works: dating in the grimdark.
