star wars - Why did Jango Fett have a son via cloning instead of through natural reproductive processes?

I don't think Jango Fett actively sought to have a son via cloning. Rather, thinks happened the other way around.



The Republic approached him and bought his DNA to produce a clone army. In return, Fett decided that, if they were going to clone him, he wanted one to raise as his own. In other words, the opportunity to have a son presented itself through the clone process, so he took advantage of it.



If he truly wanted a son, it wouldn't have mattered if he was homosexual or not. There are plenty of options for "natural born" children other than heterosexual sex, including adoption or artificial insemination.



(Having said that, there's no indication that he's homosexual, and as @Null points out, at least one non-canon case of his having a heterosexual relationship. Again, that's not proof -- homosexual men in the real world do sometimes "fake it" for various reasons. It merely shows that we just don't know enough about him to know.)
