Maybe so, but in a very little known section of his treatises on
logic, Aristotle speculated on a form of a practical syllogism
that involves the procreative act, its achievement being
connected to the validity of the form depending on the exact
placement of the negatives, if any, in the premises and
conclusions.

It is a complicated matter and I do feel that it would be
slightly OT to go into it here.
