The exception that infertile couples can't procreate proves that there is a general rule that male-female couples can procreate. I did say procreation in principle, not procreation in actuality. Procreation in principal is a better term than potential, because potential implies actual procreation must be potentially present, only the principal need be present not the potential.
Really? So what's the difference between procreation in principle and procreation in potential. Because apparently, in principle, even same sex procreation is possible.

Oh and by the way, your "exception proves the rule" argument, actually means that pointing out an exception simply proves that a rule exists. It says nothing about the validity of the rule.
