Many speculate that Rikudou Sennin used the Creation of All Things (COAT) to sire his two sons: The Uchiha Ancestor (Elder Son) and the Senju Ancestor (Younger Son) and I'd like to explain the reason why that is highly improbable.
Rikudou Sennin created the Bijuus through COAT, it involves the administration of imagination, and the spiritual energy (Yin) to create physical forms from nothingness. Then, through the application of vitality and physical energy (Yang) he would breathe life into the resulting creations: The Bijuus
This separation of the Juubi into the nine sentient creatures known as the Tailed Beasts is a synthesis of Yin and Yang into the nine creations which are the separated entities of the Juubi.
That is why the Bijuus have both Yin and Yang chakra.
Without Yin, there was no imagination to form them from, and without Yang, there would be no physical form to put that imagination into actuality. (Kurama's loss of his Yin chakra resulted centuries after his creation, and therefore he was able to survive extricated from him since his initial conception was comprised of both Yin and Yang)
But if Rikudou Sennin created his sons with COAT, then they would not be a synthesis of Yin(Imagination) and Yang(Physicality) but a separation of Rikudou's Yin and Yang into two beings.
YIN
YANG
Therefore, if one was Yin and the other was Yang, then it's not COAT that was used to create them since instead of a synthesis of Yin-Yang, they are a separation of Yin-Yang.
Think of the Bijuus as Pizza:
The toppings are the Yin of the Pizza and the bread is the Yang of the Pizza, divided into slices (Bijuus) that are given in different plate servings.
But the Elder and Younger Son would be like the toppings and the bread separated/not put together
The toppings (YIN)
The dough/bread (YANG)
Also since many, including myself, have theorized that the Sharingan came from the Juubi
then what Rikudou did if he indeed used COAT to create his sons was to weaken the seal of the Juubi which is absurd because the purpose of of COAT in the first place was to prevent the revival of Juubi, then that would be a contradiction of the intended purpose of COAT which is to prevent the Juubi's revival since he would basically weaken the seal of the Juubi by separating his Yin and Yang instead of synthesizing them into one body or one son.
So, through the application of Occam's Razor, the simplest explanation is probably the correct one, that Rikudou Sennin fell in love with a woman, got married, and had two sons: The Elder and the Younger Son.
I know some would be skeptical of the idea of a sage or a cleric to get married (since we initially have the impression of them being celibate) but this is not the case, since the Sage of the Six Paths and the Manga itself directly takes inspiration from Japanese myths and Shintoism, then it's perfectly acceptable for Shinto Priest (shinshoku) and Priestess to get married and have children.
