    Technically, that’s called gestational surrogacy. Traditional surrogacy uses the surrogate’s egg and the intended father’s (or donor’s) sperm.

      Huh. True enough. Point well made.

      I had no idea that existed. I thought surrogacy was donor sperm + donor egg in third party womb.

        By “traditional”, I think they mean “before we had the ability to facilitate gestational surrogacy”

        Sort of like half-adoption, if you think of it like that. So for people who lived pre 20th century…
