- Many within the LGBTQ community show off their loving families at Pride events across the world.
- While some LGBTQ couples turn to other countries for surrogates, many choose adoption or IVF to start their families.
As countries around the world start to recognize LGBTQ rights, the idea of a typical family has begun to change as well.
A Family Equality survey published in 2019 indicated that "up to 3.8 million LGBTQ millennials [in the US] are considering expanding their families in the coming years."
People who identify as LGBTQ have turned to surrogacy, adoption, and IVF to become parents. As a result, families all over the world are looking different and more diverse.
From South Africa to Denver, these families with same-sex parents prove that "family" has no one definition.
