* '''Physically romantic intimate partnerships:''' Adults who want to remain physically intimate may form relationships exclusively for this purpose. Having a dedicated partner without emotional or economic attachment is seen as a normal part of life.

* '''~~Birthing~~ partnerships:''' When people, usually females, want to have a child, they select a male partner on the basis of physical, emotional, intellectual and mental traits that will be most optimal for their offspring. The sole purpose of this arrangement is to produce children. This can be likened to sperm and ovum donors in other nations.

* '''Child-bearing partnerships:''' When people, usually females, want to have a child, they select a male partner on the basis of physical, emotional, intellectual and mental traits that will be most optimal for their offspring. The sole purpose of this arrangement is to produce children. This can be likened to sperm and ovum donors in other nations.

* '''Child-raising partnerships:''' These are relationships in which two individuals agree to raise a child together. They take joint responsibility for the financial, emotional and physical well-being of the child up to and sometimes during adulthood. They are the equivalent of parents, yet for a variety of relationships they may not necessarily have been romantically involved. In some cases, a birthing or living partner can occupy this role, although not always.
