Being a gay couple with children

[Ultra]

I say go for it! Then I say don't go for it when you read the next paragraph.

I was considering it with my ex. He told me that he wouldn't be a good father. I beg to differ, he would be a great father. We had this deal planned out... but it would be complicated. He had a sister and I was thinking she would donate her eggs to a surrogate mother and then I donate my sperm and we'll have our child through artificial insemination with the surrogate mother who has his sister's eggs... that's how we were have a kid. I would only have a child under that condition and under that condition only. So yeah, I'd be screwed if my next partner doesn't have a sister or has one but doesn't agree to it. They must share the same genetics. However there's costs and religion. First off, she would have definitely agreed... however she's a Catholic and Catholics do not believe in artificial insemination if I'm not mistaken. So it couldn't happen anyway. Unless somehow and someway, there's a new way of reproduction and I strongly believe they will find another way. I don't know the science behind it, though I'm sure it's feasible and possible.

Yeah.. since there's so much involved with having a child. I say, don't go for it. If you're really really into wanting children, think about it extremely carefully. I guess that's the best advice I can give.
