Recently had this happen as well. Male sim called to ask advice about whether he & his wife should have a child - my sim replied to say "go for it". This is an unplayed sim with the "Family Oriented" trait & career "stay at home dad"; he was good friends with my sim & has a wife who was just an acquaintance. Also already has 2 children in the household. Standard default traits for a male - can impregnate, etc. His wife is standard default traits for a female - can be impregnated.
Male sim showed up to visit and he was very pregnant. 😃
Playing with just base game + Eco Lifestyle / no mods/cc - never used.

@BlackjackWidow, your example shows what is wrong with this.😃 If you didn't set him to be able to become pregnant, and you don't have Get to Work installed so he can become Alien pregnant, then there is no reason using the game's existing rules and logic for him to become pregnant! 🤨😞

@PugLove888 - It's true, it was very surprising to see him pregnant! But I laughed and really don't mind it myself. He had a cute little girl added to his family and he's no longer pregnant, so there was no issue with the pregnancy & delivery, although I think they skipped the baby stage and went straight to toddler.
I like these new random phone calls with small ways to influence unplayed sims. It appears whoever makes the phone call is the one that gets pregnant. They're not running any checks to see if the sim is able to get pregnant. Probably not working as intended 🙂

@BlackjackWidow, I think it also depends on how you play as well. For me, I play each household in a separate save so I don't miss anything that happens in their lives, and also because I'm a bit of a control freak with my Sims! 😳😃 So, if I see Mortimer Goth or Eric Lewis, or Malcom Landgraab walking around pregnant, then I think it humorous too!
But I can see if someone was playing the Goth household and then switched to another household in the same save game how it might matter a bit more if one of their other families suddenly had a baby... but I guess in that case they better be careful to click on the "no" button when the option comes up! 😉
