Now I know this is a magical world but your argument is a bad analogy given that they spesifically reproduce with females of other “races” primarily humans.This would irl imply that they are the same species or have evolved to be able to exploit other species reproduction cycles.
What about Gaves born from humans?

In its essence, the humanity of the northmen and the inhumanity of the beastmen can be ascertained quite simply like this:
The beastmen are inhuman because they cannot defy their gods.
The northmen are human because they can defy their gods.

I understood beestmen were sometime born to normal human parents as an aberration of chaos, and those parents often gave the child to “the forest” where it was discovered by beastmen and raised in the herd.
There is no interbreeding of Beastmen and humans, and the child is born as a beast.

I see somebody didn’t read between the lines…
There is no ‘reading between the lines’ here when the conclusion that beastmen violating the females of other races is completely clear to just about everyone here. His point is not that ‘it doesn’t happen’, his point is ‘when it does inevitably happen, it doesn’t result in a half-human, half-beastman, but only ever a full beastman’. There is no interbreeding, because the products of beastman violation are never anything but more breastmen. They are parasites of sorts in that regard.

But a Beastman can be born of a human woman, right?
I mean, Beastmen are less human than Chaos for sure, but, in that case, at least a part of their dna should be human.

This is a good argument.
Morrtanius:
The horsemen to the east of Norsca are another set of Chaos-worshipping tribes, the most numerous in service to the Gods: The tribes of the Kurgan, the original inhabitants of the lands that would become known as Norsca. Whereas the Norscans gird themselves in heavy metal and pride themselves on honest footmanship, the Kurgans feature a mastery of horsemanship. Bronze-skinned brutes all, the Kurgans are to Kislev as the Norscans are to the Empire. Just because both Kurgans and Norscans worship Chaos changes nothing about the fact that they are embittered enemies to each other, for the Gods demand an unceasing spectacle of bloodshed, and both peoples are murderousely willing to prove they are the most worthy of worshippers.
The men of Norsca did not always dwell in Norsca. Before they became the Norscans, they were the Norsii, and they inhabited the north of the land that would become the Empire. The Norsii were banished by Sigmar’s father and the combined might of the many southern tribes, who would later form the various states of the Empire. The Norsii were outnumbered a hundred to one. Battered, bloodied and yet unbowed, their last measure of survival was a horrifying deathmarch to the north, a fighting retreat that lasted for years and saw them desperately battle on every side and at every turn against every tribe of humans who had united to finish the Norsii off in their weakened state. It was this march that purged every shred of kindness from the northmen, as the noblest of them stood their ground and fought to the last to hold the southern armies at bay and to give their kinsmen a chance of survival.
So the Norsii arrived at the shores of the hellscape where the southling armies dared not follow them. Their hearts deadened and their eyes cold from years of losing friends and family, the Northmen proceeded to practice the only trade they had any love left for: To raze and slaughter. The Kurgans that lived there were fought, tribes exterminated and incorporated as the Norsii carved out their stretch of home from the unforgiving bergs. But where the Norscans are few, the Kurgans are many, and so even after centuries of constant battle between the two, the Kurgans still live in the northern east of the world, making up the bulk of the Chaos Marauders as well as their horse-battalions.
Thanks for the info!
Here I don’t agree so much… there is a big difference between parasitism and pregnancy.
When an alien from Alien films uses an human to reproduce, it doesn’t make sex with that human.
The point is that, obvly imho, a full-beastman is already half-human.
Look at it from this way: Beastmen are about as human as elves and dwarves are.
