He can almost do everything: eat, drink, poop (Luffy asked him when they first
met), etc. Brook even says by drinking milk, his broken bones heal faster. So
it seems food has effect in his body.

So I was just wondering that after a certain age, all the straw hats will
retire and have a family. Will Brook also be able to do so? Can Brook marry a
real woman and have real kids (human kids)?

Can Brook marry a real woman and have real kids (human kids)?


In short, his organs are fully operative but they don't exist.

Since you need "that organ" in physical form to have kids, then I assume he
can't have kids (his genitalia can't be touched). But he can still pee since
he doesn't need to touch his genitalia to pee (like he can have a nosebleed
without having his blood circulating his body)

**Yes**

I could not find any verified references as to which of the two possibilities
listed below is correct, but based off the fact that he is non-existent parts
can _interact_ with the things around him[ [relevant AAM
question]](http://anime.stackexchange.com/a/38568/35035) I am leaning towards
the first.

1\. Brook just acts like most people when reproducing and via the Yomi Yomi no
Mi fruits powers, somehow it all just works. The sound waves in his chest
bounce off _something_ , his urine is aimed by _something_ so it seems
probable that if he just went through the motions, (whether or not his wife
could feel anything) then his non-existent organs would also operate normally.

2\. This is to cover all bases, and explain why it would be _possible_ ,
although admittedly not _practical_ if he was unable to become aroused or
physically respond down there. Because Brook has other liquids, it is fair to
say that he does have sperm and we know that if nothing is happening,
eventually Brook would have a wet dream. I would like to refer to [this
article about frog underpants](https://nypost.com/2017/06/10/scientists-
learned-how-babies-are-made-by-dressing-frogs-in-pants/) that was placed on
the frog in a very early experiment to learn about the basics of reproduction
where they placed specially made underpants on the male frog, placed him with
a female, waited for them to mate and then collected the frogs sperm and
analysed it. Well in theory, brook could wear a similar apparatus to collect
and preserve his own sperm, which could later be used by his wife to produce a
child.

Plus there is always adoption

I highly doubt that.

The other answers indicated that he somehow seems to function just like a
normal human being. However, in my opinion, this only serves comedy. None of
his "normal human being" traits had any impact on the story. I highly doubt it
would be possible for him to father children, because that would mean an
impact on story (even if it is just the aftermath of the manga).

... On the other hand I have no doubt that there is fanfiction about him being
able to do so.
