well,well,well...seeing as how not very many of us I imagine ever actually knew the man personnally, I would like to propose a couple of possible reasons for the lack of "little Bukowskis"...First off, he was a somewhat degenerate-although highly intelligent-dirty, crass and often lonely person;so I imagine that it is entirely possible that he really didn't have as many women as he said he did...as a writer myself I can tell you that even when we say that we're telling the truth, you can't always believe us...we're liars...it's what we do....now it is also possible and even more probable that the one daughter that he did officially produce was one in a million-consider the amount of alcohol he was reputed to take in and his general state and unhealthy/un-hygenic lifestyle for much of his adult life...he must have been nearly sterile and practically incapable of fathering a child...also consider the type of women he may have had many of his encounters with-alcoholics,loose women;possibly having had many abortions...this couple with the booze and drugs would make an instant desert of a womb...sorry all you partyers, but abusing your bodies really can mean that you'll never have children...c'est la vie mes cheres...
Peace Love and all that jazz,
I
