{{trope}}
So a given female cast member will get the storyline of realising she is [[Coming Out Story|gay]]/[[Bi the Way|bisexual]]/[[If ItsIt's You ItsIt's Okay|"it's not the gender, it's the person"]], or maybe she was already gay from the start. Whatever the case may be, at some point after entering in a long-term relationship with another woman, you can expect their [[My Biological Clock Is Ticking|biological clock to go off]], and a pregnancy storyline (since they only want ''biological'' kids) for the two will begin.
 
One peculiar hallmark of this trope is that ''a lot'' attention will be paid to what is actually a pretty easy and minor part of the process: the lesbian couple's quest to find sperm. Curiously, sperm banks and adoption will almost never be seriously discussed. The TV lesbians will instead try to get sperm from the men in their life, be he a close friend, in-law, or random passerby. A truly improbable number will even opt for an "old-fashioned" impregnation with the sperm donor. If one can't be found, expect the lesbian couple go to increasingly [[Zany Scheme|unlikely, embarrassing, and even illegal ends to acquire one.]]

** Though in a subtle version of this trope, Willow and Tara became a kind of "adoptive parents" towards Dawn, even after Buffy {{spoiler|came back from the dead}}. Later Dawn even comments that she sees Willow as her mom.
** Brought up again in the comics, when a run in with {{spoiler|Willow's ex-boyfriend Oz}} shows that he now has a child. Willow is upset; {{spoiler|Oz}} assumes it's because of this trope and tells her there are ways for her to have a child. She reveals that her anger has nothing to do with him having a child but rather that he's allowed to have a normal future, while she can't while she is one of the top people in the Slayer organization and a sorceress supreme.
*** The main part of the conversation actually focused considerably on the fact that she feels she can't have a normal family while she still has such [[Super -Powered Evil Side|inner-darkness]].
* Appeared to be the only reason to include Carol's partner Susan in ''[[Friends]]''.
** ''Averted'' in Friends, as Susan fell in love with Carol independently of her getting pregnant by her then-husband.
