    I suppose you're not in a country where you can adopt as a gay couple?
    But then, couldn't you adopt a child yourself, like, legally it would be your child and not both yours and your partner's but in practice who cares about what homophobic laws say, you'd just be a family?

    Yep, to be honest "your child" will be the child you decide to raise, doesn't matter where it came from, to them you'll be their parents after all

    (what i mean is let's not go with society's weird social norms about "purity of pregnancy" (aka "it's not really your child if the both of you didn't created it by combining both of your DNA") that's just bullshit and even harms heterosexual couples that can't make children, so if you fell for sure belief, try to see things in a different way, you'll share 99,9% of your DNA anyway, i think that's enough to call them yours ~^~

    what /i/ mean is a baby born of artificial insemination would /biologically/ be your child. you're missing part of the problem that involves his dad not wanting their /bloodline/ to go extinct. artificial insemination can privide a blood relative with no strings attached for the doner and the surrogate mother. i understand if /you/ personally dont wanna go through child birth, i don't either. im merely saying theres options other than adoption

    Ah yes of course!
    I don't really understand such concept since in my eyes, humanity already shares more than 99.9% of its DNA, so it's just a social concept that holds no real value in my eyes!
    But!! Historically speaking it has been a concern for some families like the medicis, so my bad, i should have thought about it you're right
