I could very well believe that Riddle/LV would use sex as a tool for 
manipulation.  However, I seem to remember JKR stating clearly in an 
interview that LV has no children, so that rules out the theory that 
LV is Snape's dad.  In response to a question about Luna being 
Snape's daughter, she stated that Snape doesn't have a daughter.  My 
question:  does he have a son?  If so, who?  If he did, it couldn't 
be Harry, as suggested elsewhere here, as James is clearly Harry's 
father.  Draco?  I think not, as he seems to resemble his mother and 
father so much.  I really do not believe that Snape had any 
children...but the "no daughter" comment vs. "no children" left me 
to wonder...
