You're missing my point. It's not possible (at least as far as I know) for a homosexual couple to have children that share the genes of both parents.
Actually, it is, or is quickly becoming, possible. At least for lesbian couples. There has been research into producing artificial sperm from one woman's cells to use to impregnate the mother. In this way, two women could have a child. Here's an article from 2002. I wasn't able to find any recent research, but perhaps somebody else can.
For now, homosexual male couples seem to be out of luck. But there has been work done on artificial wombs. Once that is perfected, that's just one more thing they won't have to worry about. But what about the egg? I haven't heard of any research being done to create eggs from male cells, but that doesn't mean it isn't or won't happen. Time will tell.
