there’s a heinlein novel where the main character travels through time, has a sex change, travels back through time, marries themself, then the older version of the character gives birth to the original incarnation of the character.
I’m not sure whether this was heinlein decrying a potential future or fantasizing, to be honest
The man who folded himself is a time travel story, too. Every time the guy travels to the same time, there’s another one of him there, with bigger or smaller age differences. It gets pretty twisted in parts when he’s living with his other selves.
You should read “The Man Who Folded Himself.”
