Well, I'll fiekld this in my own way then...
I did clearly state that sex as we understand it is not a method of procreation among Digimon -- therefore they do not pass on their "genetic" data during intercourse, and so it is impossible for them to impregnate a human. However, I have also...
PALINMON (fan-made evolution, Culumon's Child level) is a "Third Gender", a special type of Digimon that can allow otherwise impossible things to happen. Because female Digimon do not have the necessary organs to procreate as humans do, a male human can no mor eimpregnate a female Digimon than a male Digimon could impregnate a human female.
Third Genders, however, are able to alter things in ways which are not normal, if he is involved. In the story "I Wish" Culumon unintentionally did this, allowing Renamon to be impregnated by Jenrya. That consequence is not explored in the story excpt for a mention of morning sickness an the fact that Renamon is pregnant. This is possible because Culumon's data affected her evolutions, in the same way it did Guilmon's and Terriermon's (meaning, they're probably also compatible with humans).
So, I believe Digimon are normally NOT compatible with Humans because they do not reproduce sexually in the same fashion as humans do. However, I am willing ti suspend that disbelief for the sake of a story that gives reasoning (be it the interference of the Digivice in the Digimon's code or an outside factor causing the compatibility) or is done pureply for the sake of such things (as in Lord Archive's HDTH series).
