As an increasing number of states legalize same-sex marriage, there is an increase in same-sex couples considering the various methods for having children, including adoption, gestational carriers, egg and sperm donors.
For those couples, the singular goal when they are trying to have a child is to find a way to fill in the biological gap that exists by virtue of both parents being of the same gender. When a same-sex couple seeks out a sperm donor, egg donor or gestational carrier, they are looking to fill the missing biological piece of their parenting puzzle and generally are not looking for a third parent for the child.
