Josh smiled lightly and tried to explain a little better. "I mean, we'll make a choice in the future how I pass on my heir. To whom. Since of course we can't reproduce, we have options." Josh ran his fingers along Akira's stomach, whispering to him softly.
"There are some children, and babies out there without their parents. Maybe they can't afford having one, or it was unplanned. Whatever the reason they give their child up for adoption, so another family can raise and look after them as their own." Josh tried to explain as much as he could. "A surrogate is…taking my sperm, and with the help of a little bit of science, they take a woman's egg and fertilize it before placing it into a woman's body. It means that she'll give birth to my child, but without the act of sex of course." Josh pursed his lips, noticing it was a lot harder to really explain than he had thought.
"But those options come later. Honestly just allowing someone in my distant family to take my role would be completely fine." Josh smiled lightly.
