pumpkins

First off, my pumpkins are jack-o-lanterns, so the females are VERY obvious. Problem is, I only have female flowers. For sure. Great big orange pretty flowers with beautiful babies right behind them. But no males. I am so confused. I planted my pumpkins near my zucchini. They are producing male flowers blooming at this point. I know cross pollination is supposed to be a bad thing. If this does happen, what’s so bad?
