A 29-year-old French nurse has placed an ad in the classifieds to rent out her breasts to gay couples who can’t breastfeed their own children.
The advertisement was posted on e-loue, a website offering goods and services for rent, by a user calling herself “cecilia232” who lives in the Parisian suburb of Boulogne, the Daily Mail reported.
“I am a young mother in good health, a trained nurse aged 29, and I am renting my breasts to suckle newborns,” the ad reads. “In one day, I can offer your baby up to a dozen feeds.
“Gay male couples do not have a chance to breast-feed their babies — however, breast-feeding helps improve babies’ health,” she continued. “Mother’s milk provides comprehensive nourishment.”
Cecilia is charging $133 for a full day of feeding, or $665 for a week.
According to the Mail, the offer comes in the wake of nationwide controversy in France over the legalization of gay marriage and adoption.

E-loue told French website Terrafemina that they had contacted Cecilia and determined the ad was legitimate. She has reportedly already received two requests for her services, the Mail said.
