Queer Sperm Donor Sought by Lesbian Couple

Lesbian couple trying to find Gay, Bisexual, or Trans donor to donate sperm for upcoming IVF treatment.

We are seeking someone tall, queer, fair complexion, and darker hair. Must be willing to sign over all parental rights and act as donor not 'father.'

We are a bi-racial lesbian couple, vegetarian, queer activists, who desperately want to start our family. A queer donor is most important to us because it is an important part of our own identities. We are American and experienced our childhoods on both coasts of the U.S. (Miami area and San Francisco area) and have moved to the Netherlands to pursue graduate school opportunities. We are strong believers in Queer community and we hope to find a donor who is also invested in community building in their own networks.

You should know that we will not terminate any resulting pregnancies, allow any genital surgeries (Intersex or circumcision) and will allow our children to dictate their gender identity and expression in whatever way feels most comfortable to them.

Your current location may not be an issue for us. We may be able to come to you, or arrange sperm to be shipped or you might be located in near one of the IVF centers that we have been in contact with. If it sounds like we are a good match, please e-mail us at lesbiansseekingdonor@gmail.com.

Stable Male Couple Wants Children

We are a stable male couple that's been together for 25 years and are ready to embark on the most wonderful adventure of our lives. We're both in our mid-40s, both 6'2", 195 lbs, healthy, attractive, highly educated, one American and one Cuban. And we're good and very decent people. We're professional writers, with plenty of love and nurturing to give (just ask our four dogs!).

We are looking for one or more women willing and able to make our dream of having two children come true; ideally we are looking to have all rights to our children, but are willing to discuss other options such as co-parenting. If you think you might be the one, email us at dadandpapi@hotmail.com with your own background information and let's discuss.

BI-SEXUAL WHITE FEMALE LOOKING FOR SPERM DONOR FOR FIRST TIME MOM!

I am looking for a gay man to be a sperm donor for me. I am single and not in a relationship currently. I am 38 going on 39. I am not eligible for any studies in the fertility clinic, which is maddening to say the least. Let me tell you about myself.

I'm 5'3" with brown hair and eyes that have a little bit of hazel in them but are mostly very brown. I am a high school graduate, and I have attended business school and made it all the way thru to the end. I live in Minnesota, and I travel south in the winter on the bus. I love buses and cars, but I hate to fly. I have fears, but mostly it is just too irritating to me with all the security now.

I have wanted children ever since childhood, and I always tell my girlfriend or boyfriend at the time when we are dating that it is what my main interest in life is...hence why I am still single. You would think a woman would want a baby besides me, but so far no takers, because they say two woman can't have a baby. Well they are correct. It hasn't stopped my desire though to have a baby of my own.

If you think adopting being gay is tough in Florida, try adopting as a gay/strait single. The MN agencies say you can adopt single, but what they mean is you had better be 100% gay or strait male. Go figure! I have tried and been turned down many many times. I have depression because of it. My desire is all consuming in my daily thoughts.

My sisters both have children between the ages of 2-22. My brother had a baby last year. Here I sit barren being made fun of in my family because of it. They always say marry then you can have all the babies you want to have in life. Well I am sick of hearing that and waiting to no end in sight. Please! Help make my desire a reality. I love children. I am educated. I am willing to travel, or you can ship sperm to me. I am a god believing individual. I wish to be a mommy in this life so much. Serious Inquiries Only!

I work for a living, but I am able to take the responsibility now and for a few years back to raise a child(ren) on my own, and when the right woman or man comes along we can raise the child(ren) together. I need no financial support in exchange I am willing to let you visit Christmas time, birthdays, and the 4th of July. For more information contact me at Trjomml1@aol.com.

Stable GM Couple (12 years) Interested in Donating Sperm with No Strings Attached; Just Love

Two GM (Jim and Luis) interested in donating sperm to a single lesbian or lesbian couple. We strongly believe that for this to work, we have to be clear upfront that we have no rights whatsoever - if you want us to have any relationship at all with your children, we would have to earn it, and it would be entirely at your discretion.

We are both lawyers (we thought we would put the scary stuff first). Jim is a a law professor and Luis is an immigration lawyer. Luis is Puerto Rican and Jim is Jewish from Seattle, almost an oxymoron.

Florida is the only state to prevent ANY gay person from adopting, so we thought it would be nice to be part of parenting in this manner, even if it is a relatively small part of the process.

Gay Couple Together 16 Years Seeking Surrogate

Hello! My name is Robert and my partner's name is Scott. We both reside in Jacksonville and have been together now for 16 years. We are a mature & stable couple. We have been working towards having a family and have had some disappointments along the way, but we still continue in hopes that one day it will become reality. We would have no objection to being a donor, but we are also looking for a surrogate mother.

Our perfect match would be a lesbian couple where both females would be interested in being pregnant at the same time. One child for you and one child for us. If this worked out and we agreed we wanted more children, we could repeat the process. Or we could be a donor for your child and then one of you be a surrogate for our child. We prefer not to have intercourse. We would also like to have 100% parental rights over our child. However we also would not mind the surrogate mother involved with the child's life if she so desired. We are open to discuss the options. We are serious about this, please be considerate of that when responding. We are willing to compensate our surrogate throughout the pregnancy and are open to negotiation regarding this. Please email us at: rfrsgr@bellsouth.net.

Male Professional Seeks Best Friend and Marriage Mate for Co-Parenting

Friends describe me as "A great catch". I'm flattered. Actually, I'm just blessed. God has blessed me with life, wonderful experiences, talents, varied interests, health and strength. For many years I have desired a traditional marriage and family, but having a same-sex attraction prevents that from happening. Thus, I am looking for a lesbian, bisexual or straight female who is interested in co-parenting. I am African American, 6', 195 lbs, 40 years old. I enjoy, sports, movies, theatre, and traveling. I love kids and can't wait to have a few. I am a caring, masculine, Christian, advanced-degreed professional who would make a wonderful husband (best friend) and father. I am looking and praying for what I call a Marriage Mate and Best Friend to co-parent a couple of children and raise family.

Basically, I am looking for a person in a similar situation in that she is gay but she too wants a traditional Christian marriage and home life for her children. She is professional, goal-oriented, and beautiful inside and out (height and weight proportionate with a great smile), wants kids, and has varied interests. African American or Hispanic/Latino ladies are a plus. Whether you are a lesbian, bisexual, or straight but you see a unique potential in and arrangement like this, let’s get to know one another and see what happens. I am simply asking that we both step out on faith towards a chance at a great partnership and raising some beautiful kids.

If you are serious, please email me at grangerellis@yahoo.com and type "Best friend for Co-parenting" in the subject line so that I can be prompt in my response.

I've been in a long term relationship with a woman in the past though I consider myself more queer than bi.

I live in south Florida but distance and location are not really important to me. My family roots are based in Europe and the Caribbean. I have traveled all over and have much appreciation for cultural diversity so race and ethnicity are irrelevant. I am socially conservative, but definitely not so politically. Professionally, I'm a critical cardiac care nurse, currently pursuing graduate studies in Anesthesia.

I'm looking for a female from mid 20s to early 30s who's interested in both of us being actively involved in raising our child. Surrogacy doesn't appeal to me because Id rather spend the money on the kid than on agencies and attorneys. I would want our child to have both a mother and a father in his/her life and I'm willing to be very flexible to make this co-parenting arrangement work. I'm fine with AI and am more than willing to pay the costs.

Committed and Loving Couple Seeks Gestational Carrier

My name is Chris and my partner of 12 years, Jason, and I want to fulfill our dreams of starting a family. We both want to be parents more than anything in the world. Living in Florida, adoption is not an option for us. We considered relocating, however we believe it is important for our child to be near their grandparents and other family members who are all located in Florida. We have spent the past year researching surrogate options and are ready to move forward. A family member has agreed to donate an egg, and Jason will be the biological father.

We are seeking a gestational carrier to bring our baby into the world. We are open to most options and terms for the right match. We are seeking a gestational surrogate that is willing to carry the baby to term for a negotiable rate. We would also consider being a sperm donor for a lesbian couple that would also assist us by agreeing to become a surrogate.

Location: Lake Mary, Florida. We built our dream home in 2004. It is a 3 bedroom, 2 ½ bath, 3,200 square foot home near great schools, city parks, bike trails, and shopping. We live in a great family oriented neighborhood. Our house is located in the cul-de-sac, where it is not uncommon to see parents and their children enjoying a game of soccer in the evening.

Profession: I am a software Project Manager. Jason is a Senior Software Trainer and Technical Writer. We are financially secure and maintain a good balance between our home life and career goals. Jason and I both have been with our current employer for several years and intend to stay with our employer long-term. We both work less than 5 mins from our house, which makes it a quick commute home in the evenings.

Education: I hold a Masters Degree in Business Administration. Jason has two years of college. Education is important to us both and we hope to encourage our children to embraces education.

Hobbies: We both enjoy the outdoors. We like to go camping with friends and family. We enjoy swimming, bike riding, walking, rollerblading, and I run 3 to 4 times a week. In addition, we both enjoy traveling, reading, and watching movies.

Loving Gay Couple Desire to Raise a Family

We are Derek and Dennis. We are a mature and stable couple with the genuine desire to have a child to raise as our own, care for and relish in the experiences that many take for granted. We love each other dearly, and continue to support each other during the difficult times that come when couples like us continue to meet with opposition in attaining the goal of a family. We have met several close people in our lives willing to surrogate for us, yet in the end, it never becomes a reality. We have the means to care for this child, yet agencies make it difficult in the short term to financially tackle this initial investment. Derek is an artist and I am a veterinarian. We believe in similar spiritual values and are confident in our ability to raise healthly, happy, intelligent, and upstanding children. Is there a special lady out there that is sympathetic to our cause and would like to give us the greatest gift...that is of life? Please feel free to write. DBARROSDVM@AOL.COM.

Wanna be a Dad

I'm a single 34-year-old gay white male professional looking to become a known father for a lesbian couple or a co-parent. I'm a warm, caring, spirtual person who is drug and disease-free hoping for the opportunity to be part of a child's life. Right now I'm working as a journalist in South Florida, but I would be more than willing to travel for the right couple or even re-locate for the right co-parent. I believe parenthood is both a precious gift and an incredible responsibility. On the one hand, I would be willing to relinquish custody rights, but on the other, I would want to participate in the child's life as much as I could. Please e-mail me at nestep@herald.com if you have any interest.

Loving Gay Couple Seeking TS

My partner and I are actively searching for a traditional surrogate. We are an upper class gay couple and have been in a committed relationship for over 12 years. We own a successful business, own a home, and long for a child of our own. For many years we have discussed wanting a child and thought, when the time was right we would pursue it.

Our original plan was to have my sister be our surrogate when we were ready. My sister agreed as she thought that we would be wonderful parents having observed us and our love that we provide to her children (my neice and nephew). In an unfortunate turn of events, my sister had to undergo an emergency hysterectomy at only age 28. Now both of us at age 33, have decided to pursue our dream of having a child. We are ready to raise a wonderful child and have the support of our family and friends. We would have considered adoption, however we live in the only state that currently bans gay and lesbian adoption. We are looking for a female single or married, between the ages of 24 - 38. Must be in good health, be willing to be tested for STD's, have medical insurance to cover pregnancy, be a non-smoker, no drug or alcohol abuse, be willing for us to be involved with the pregnancy and birth, and be willing to give us full legal rights to the child.

If you feel you are a match for us and can help make our dream of being parents a reality we would love to meet you. Please contact us via email at: rjs2ii@yahoo.com.

Committed and Happy Lesbian Couple Seeks Sperm Donor

We are a committed lesbian couple, going on our 10th year of life together. BECKY is a 34 year old college professor who works from home; KAREN is a 38 year old architecture and construction student. We are loving, caring people, who currently dedicate all of our time and attention to our relationship, our 3 hairless cats (Endor, Kolby and Inky) and our mixed terrier dog (Delta). We've reached a point in our lives where we are ready to share our love with a human child, but we need a little help. :)

We are both healthy, happy, women, with fun personalities and average to cute looks. I, Becky, intend to carry the baby. I have no known genetic conditions and have a healthy family history. We are both very well rounded people: intelligent, but down to earth; lovers of sports and science fiction; non-religious, but spiritual, and more. Our philosophy is Kai Zen - continuous improvement throughout life.

While we currently live in the Tampa/St. Petersburg area, we only recently moved to Florida. We still own a home in Michigan, and spend holidays in Michigan with our families, and hope to spend summers there in the future. We are open to a sperm donor from anywhere in the country, but if you want to have regular contact with the child, you would need to live near Tampa, Florida or Port Huron, Michigan.

The level of involvement of the sperm donor is open to discussion. We are willing to have an unknown or known donor, or even to allow some involvement/visitation/coparenting. Co-parenting with a gay couple is possible, if the couple is established, exclusively committed and willing to have both partners tested for STDs. We would require the signing of some document to indicate that we would be primary parents and have physical custody, but we are open to discussion of visitation arrangements.

If you are an interested straight or gay male then write us and let's get to know each other. Cost of insemination, pregnancy and birth would be ours; costs of sperm testing would be discussed, based upon how much involvement you want to have.

If you are interested, we'd like to get to know you. Let's start with some emails, and if that works out, we'll go from there. We'd be happy to send you a photo of us when you write. Please send an email to Becky and Karen at -- e-mail address withheld pending success with selected donor -- , telling a bit about you, and why you want to donate, and let's get to know each other.
