Professional gay couple in Dallas, TX is looking for a traditional surrogate preferrably in the metroplex area or the state of Texas. We are financially stable and have been together for over 8 1/2 years and are wanting to start a family. The ideal TS must be open minded to the idea of acknowledging the child if so desired by the child later in life. The TS will not have any financial responsibilities or parental rights to the child. The TS must be disease and drug free.  Please make our dreams of becoming parents a reality...god bless!

I'm so excited to have found this site! I'm an attractive and educated woman who believes strongly in eating healthy food. I don't watch much TV. I have a wonderful and loving group of friends with small children that are a wonderful support system for me and our potential child/children. Though I have great offers for sperm donation, I really want the child to have the love of at least two actively involved parents. I'm up for being the primary parent or 50/50 or whatever feels right. I think the perfect situation for me would be a gay couple, but am also open to a single male (I am bisexual and single). I'd be open to having more than one child - who knows - maybe even a child with each dad? :)

I'm looking for a commited gay couple who wants to actively co-parent. To me that means splitting the time and expenses 50/50. I am a married straight woman and my husband has two children and doesn't want the responsibility of another child (his life is very full). But I am interested in parenting and yet not overly impacting our lives.

I have 15 years of cooperative living experience, do conflict resolution, and non-violent communication. I am very conscious about relationships, agreements, and would want contracts. Ideally we all like each other, communicate well, and share values. I love to idea of a child having four parents instead of two. Two parents is just too stressful in modern culture.

I live outside of Asheville, NC and am very attached to place. Am not able to relocate.

Excited to explore.

Serious responses only please. Looking to find a friendly, honest, financially secure and responsible female that is interested in forming a friendship and some form of negotiable co-parenting situation. I am a 48 year-old caucasian male of Scottish, French Canadian and Swedish descent who's interested in being a father, not just a donor. I am a well-traveled, healthy, intelligent, financially secure and creative person who works as a professional graphic and web design manager. I am also a dual citizen of both the US and UK, with extended family in both countries. Active, athletic and eager to enjoy the challenges and rewards of parenthood, I would like to share that experience in a negotiable joint custody arrangement and would love to hear from a female of any race or ethnicity who is serious about pursuing this. Look forward to hearing from you!

I  would like to help a couple or single female become parents by sperm donation (AI). I am a white male, healthy and athletic, and have no previous abuse of drugs or alcohol. Would like to be a known donor with some involvement with child but I am open and negotiable.

Gaydar Date is a free online glbt dating network where it is free to be a member.

I am looking to be a loving dad and co-parent with someone in the immediate NY metro area / long Island. I am a 38 year-old single gay male of British and Italian descent. I am a NYC public school teacher in Brooklyn, healthy (eat right and exercise), drug and disease/std free and looking for the same in a preferably white female who is looking for a loving co-parent and interested in a joint custody arrangement. I own a 2 bedroom apartment in Freeport, Long Island with a loving and supportive family nearby.

I am looking for someone who is SERIOUS about doing this, as well as financially stable, financially responsible and financially and emotionally independent who can share all child-related expenses and share the joys of parenthood. If you fit that description, I'd love to hear from you.

Anyone out there interested in adoption but concerned or anxious about doing it on your own? I suppose the ideal situation would be a gay man (or possibly couple) who would like to adopt but share custody (there are many options here but I am thinking you would most likely be the custodial parent(s) and primary caregiver(s), but without the stress of doing it entirely on your own. I am an educated, professional gay female in my early forties (young 40's they say), very laid back, fun, and easy to get along with. I actually have 2 adorable little ones of my own but have been thinking about the idea of adoption for quite some time. Realistically, however, I think it would be too much to take on on my own right now and I love the idea of a happy extended family. So if you have thought about adopting but feel it's a little daunting, may be difficult as a single person, or would simply like your adopted child to have a mother drop me a line and maybe we can discuss some of the many possibilities. Please serious inquiries only. Thanks--
ps-Sorry, not interested in acting as a surrogate

I'm an AI sperm donor in Massachusetts, 40, tall, intelligent, with a good family medical history. I will sign papers waiving any legal rights and responsibilities. If you want, I'm willing to keep in touch, but that's not necessary. I have had success as a donor, and am familiar with the process. Write for more information.

We are a lesbian couple in Texas who have been together for 5yrs now and have decided that we need to expand our family by one ...a baby!!! We are both in the law enforcement field and our lives would be complete if we had a bundle of joy to call our own. And with the help of a wonderful male who is drug free and disease free this would make our dreams come true. We are just two country girls wanting to be mommies to a babygirl or babyboy, doesnt matter to us. If you a male who is willing to make us the happiest women on earth please respond...thank you

Hoping to father Two Children - US or Europe  [  still looking, as at summer 2012  - will delete if successful :) ]

City: NEW YORK / NARBONNE / US Coastal States / FRANCE / ITALY

Seeking to Father Two Children / De'sireux de devenir p`ere de deux enfants (trad.en bas).

ME:

6ft., brownish hair [was blond color when young - see pics - which show me in mid-20's - current ones available when you e-mail]; greenish [were once blue] eyes, 180lbs, 55 [act lot younger - never properly matured], bi/gay, Oxford graduate [I'm of Celtic parentage], usual 'arty' interests - cinema / theatre / galleries / travel, Mediterranean food and wines [but non-smoker]; not really sporty type but enjoy some mountain-biking (and always cycle/walk when in NYC); favourite novelists Iris Murdoch / early (later stuff too formulaic) Patricia Cornwell / Jose’ Saramago; musical preferences range from Monteverdi to Marc Almond and Philip Glass. Dry sense of humour. Currently on a kind of Sabbatical (previously worked in international organizations in legal advice / management fields). Have a small place in the South of France which would be good for summer holidays when the children are older. (Parents / all grandparents all lived to mid or late 80s - actually the old Mom is still going strong at 92 so no reason a priori why I shouldn't see children well into adulthood.) Currently living in the S. of France with occasional visits to US. Totally healthy. Not in a relationship. Somewhat nomadic ( for work purposes ) at the moment but have home bases in both Oxford, England, and the Languedoc, France.

YOU:

Positive outlook; intelligent; at least University education; probably working in some sort of creative and/or professional field, financially secure; could be single or in a relationship, but welcoming of my involvement in the children's upbringing and also definitely wanting at least two children [I have a view that children should grow up with at least one brother or sister.] You probably live either East or West Coast, or maybe Europe. You are open minded enough not to mind the idea of an 'older' father ( you might even see the advantages - there are some...)

THE IDEA:

You would be the custodial parent of the children but I would get to visit for at least a couple of months of the year and as they get older the children would come to stay with me for roughly half of school vacations [assuming they wanted to]. In other words a ‘friendly divorce’ type of arrangement. I would make sure they had a good time and you would get a rest from constant parenting. I would want a say in their education - I would especially want them to get a good musical and bilingual education from an early age. Obviously situations can change as time goes on and children's inclinations count for a lot but these are my broad-brush ideas. People say I relate well to children. Quite a few friends (seeing me with their children) have said 'you would make a good father'. It would be crucial that you and I would get on well together even though we didn't want to live together / be around one another for more than a couple of months of the year. Actual insemination would be with syringe (in case you were worried....) (or maybe through IUI if you prefer ?) .

Please e-mail me if you are at all interested to discuss this further, in complete confidence that I will exercise [and expect] total discretion and total confidentiality around these exchanges. Please write FULLY ie with as much detail about yourself and your 'project' as you read here about me and mine. Pix (to exchange) and full details about you / your ideas essential. [Thanks for reading so far. Wishing only good things to all of us aching to become parents......]

Sujet: Mec ado [55 ans] recherche copine pour projet de coparentalite': Mec ado [55 ans],franco-britannique, [qui habite entre le Languedoc et Oxford ] recherche copine/s pour projet de coparentalité de deux enfants dans relation genre peut-être ‘divorce amicale’. Bonjour à toutes et à tous. Ou commencer ?? Je nourris depuis trop longtemps ce grand désir de devenir et être père de deux enfants [deux parce-que je pense que l’enfant a besoin d’un[e] petit[e] frère ou sœur pour grandir avec]. J’ai commencé à mettre des annonces il y a longtemps mais avec le travail [juriste / administrateur] je n’ai pas suivi le ‘projet’ avec assez d’assiduité. Maintenant je viens de quitter le travail pendant un ou deux ans ‘sabbatiques’ donc plus d’excuses / auto-exculpation….

Je suppose que – donné la mythique baguette magique - je recherche une femme genre ‘Annie Hall’ ?? – intello, sérieuse mais avec grand sens de l’humour, féminine, établie dans sa profession libérale - raisonnablement aisée point de vue finances, aimant les arts, le voyage, parlant plusieurs langues [ou du moins l’anglais – je voudrais que les enfants bénéficient d’une éducation bilangue si possible] et bien sûr beaucoup plus jeune que moi [mais ne voyant pas de problème dans la différence d’âge] ! [Prof de fac ? avocate ? cadre sup dans organisation internationale ?] Et avec résidence actuelle ou projetée pour l’avenir dans le Languedoc ou ailleurs dans le midi. [Ce dernier n'est gu`ere obligatoire - on parle de l'ide'ale.....]

Mes idées de comment cela pourrait marcher suivent:

En bref je n’envisage pas de garde alternée - plutôt je passerais du temps avec nos enfants / vous selon notre accord et leurs désirs; et dans l’avenir [ ?après l’âge de disons 7 ans ?] ils viendraient passer du temps avec moi, y compris la moitié des vacances scolaires….. Enfin ce sont des idées de base qui devraient se modifier le long du long projet et selon les circonstances futures qui ne sont pas toujours prévoyables………Mais voilà d’où je commence…….- on doit commencer quelque part……

Si mes idées vous disent quelque chose et vous vous intéressez à en discuter veuillez svp m’envoyer un courriel [à jonblane@hotmail.com ] plein d’infos sur vous / votre projet. Et des photos [ bien su^r à s’échanger]. S’il vous plaît pas de réponses de 5 lignes seulement. Discrétion totale assurée / attendue……. Merci d’avance………Et bonne chance à toutes / tous ....

Hello,

Please let me start by saying we are not offering money, (hints) putting our profile in co-parenting and not in surrogate. We had a few women contact us and while we are greatful for the interest, paying for a surrogate is not something we can afford while trying to plan a secure feature for our future children. That being said, please read on.

Thanks

So after many let downs we have come to gay family options for help. We are a 25 and 26 year old gay couple. We have been together for 7 years and married for 5 years. We are DESPERATE to start a family and we are here asking for someone(s) who know our pain and feel the same. I am Gerard, 25 African American, Degree in Human Services. My partner is Luis, 26, Degree in Graphic designs. I come from a theater and acting backround and take a passion in sports. Luis loves art and has recently started selling some of his art online as we work on starting up our own gallery! We have looked in to adoption and the longer we wait the more painful it seems to get. We know this is a long shot, but we decided to come here and see if we can get some help. We can not afford the price of surrogacy but that doesn't mean that we do not deserve the opportunity to be great parents. So we come here in search of a woman or a lesbian couple who also wishes to start their own family. Our hope is that we can one day both have a biological child of our own, as well as doing some adoption along the way. We are willing to return the favor of helping the woman/couple have children of their own as well, when they feel the time is right for them. I am not asking that we have children and shake hands and say goodbye, we are very open to having a line of communication and such but these are things we can discuss before moving forward. I know to some of you this may sound awkward but lets be honest, in the gay community all we really have is each other. This is not to say that all straight people are against us but there are so many people out there that are doubting our community and our ability to be good parents. We can prove them wrong. Please if your reading this look inside your heart and if your single, think about the day when you meet the love of your life and how much you will long for a family of your own. If your a couple, think about the beauty that children bring in to a family! This means so much to us and we really hope to hear back from someone willing to help us reach our dream. Please respond via email with any questions or interest and we can move forward from there.
Thank You 
Peace and Love
Gerard & Luis 

I am 45 years old, a medical doctor, with 3 children, and lead a university research group. I am 165, 70 kg, green/brown eyes and black hair as far as physical attributes go.

In my free time, when I am not doing research, I like playing chess, GO, walking around in museums and occasionally reading Talmudic literature. At the moment, I am reading the work of Chafetz Chaim. I am not much into sports myself, but that seems a recessive trait - my father was and my oldest 2 daughters are enjoying it very much.

I love children and would be happy to donate sperm, through AI only, to heterosexual couple, a lesbian couple or a single female from the same ethnic/religious background (kedat hahalacha). If interested, please contact at navevi04@yahoo.co.uk.
