Well I think a romantic connection between Rose and the Doctor is still very much in the realms of family friendly. I agree that implicit sexual intercourse would be far less so (even David Tennant refers to them as "a love story without the shagging.") That's why I think RTD left that scene so "think what you want." To be fair I didn't think of the sexual implication until I got on the internet though.
The TV movie isn't exactly fine entertainment, I have to admit. I have issues with the half human revelation myself so I'm not necessarily supporting it, just using it as evidence to the idea that humans and time lords could possibly reproduce.
I always assumed that the humans that mingled were advanced 40th century humans
Haha year five billion humans! I actually think it's an evolved ability, not something done in the lab (although it may have started that way). If humans are dying out and the only way to continue the species is to evolve in a manner that allows them to reproduce with totally wtf things like cats, nature takes care of it.
If we think of Time Lords as super evolved humans (I know they're not but...), then it would make sense that they could procreate with... just about anything.
