- noun
- Pl: offspring
- proxenitura

EN It leads you out of the maze into a new gaudy lecture-room where MacCann, with one hand on The Origin of Species and the other hand on the new testament, tells you that you admired the great flanks of Venus because you felt that she would bear you burly offspring and admired her great breasts because you felt that she would give good milk to her children and yours.
GL Sácanos do labirinto para conducirnos a unha sala de conferencias onde MacCann, cunha man en A orixe das especies e a outra en O Novo Testamento, che di que admiraches os longos flancos de Venus porque sentiches que ela che daría unha robusta proxenitura, e que admiraches os seus grandes peitos porque sentiches que suministraría bo leite aos vosos fillos.

- descendencia

EN Yet scandals regularly come to light, mainly because dubious go-betweens in some poor countries take advantage of the rising demand for adopted children to relieve wealthy couples, tired of waiting for offspring of their own, of huge sums, sometimes as much as $60,000.
GL Iso non impide que de cando en vez estoupen verdadeiros escándalos porque intermediarios sen escrúpulos, en certos países do Sur, se aproveitan da crecente demanda occidental para extraer inxentes sumas (ás veces ata 60.000 dólares) a parellas con diñeiro, cansas de agardar para ter descendencia e dos longos procedementos de adopción.
