A FRENCH woman has posted an online ad offering to breast feed the newborn babies of homosexual couples for $130 a day.

The ad, which appeared on French website e-loue and has been verified by their management, came just weeks after France's same-sex marriage laws were passed.

It reads: "I am a young mother in perfect health, a trained nurse of 29, and I am renting my breasts to milk-feed infants."

The Paris-based woman promises to feed the infant up to 10 times a day, the Huffington Post reports.

E-loue boss Alexandre Woog said staff contacted the woman to confirm the legitimacy of the post.

"Our legal advisers are sure of this. It's illegal in France to sell maternal milk, but this is a person proposing a service - not selling the milk in flasks," Woog said.

France legalised same-sex marriage and the right of same-sex couples to adopt children in May this year amid widespread protests from citizens.

The country does not allow surrogacy or assisted reproduction for same sex couples.
