Yeah thought so too, the only problem I have right now is which elemental would be best suitable for an air genasi bloodline outside of the djinn family tree.

I think sylph ancestors can produce genasi but I'm not completely certain nor do I know where I heard it.

On a related note, it says in the subraces bit and implied in other places that actual Elementals (specifically water, air and fire are mentioned in the subraces section, though not earth oddly) can produce genasi descendents. ...Given that, as far as I know, elementals don't have reproductive biology (or much biology at all, though I think they can be subject to sneak attacks?), how does this work? Or am I misinterpreting? If I'm not and it does work... some sort of elemental radiation effect I guess..?

Book of Erotic Fantasy isn't an official product.

I'm happy it isn't.

A unborn child could be a Genasi when born if they have long enough exposure to the plane in question as well.

But where does it saaaaay that? I want to reeeeead it.

I kinda do too. I don't think I've stumbled over that anywhere.... more info pleeeze

A unborn child could be a Genasi when born if they have long enough exposure to the plane in question as well.

That's one of the main ways planar-touched creatures are born in general. Pregnant mother spends too much time on a different plane, boom, you have a plane-touched baby.

If you ask someone how the Planetouched got that way, most folk will tell you that it's due to their anscestry. If you go back far enough in a Tiefling's family tree, they say, you'll find that one of their anscestors was a Baatezu or a Yugoloth or some other kind of lower planar creature. Likewise, if you go back far enough in an Air Genasi's family tree, you'll find that one of their anscestors was a native of the Elemental Plane of Air, such as a Djinn. And sure enough, that's the most common way to become Planetouched.

But that ain't the only way...

Each one of the Inner and Outer Planes has permanent settlements in it. No matter how deadly a plane might be, you can count on there being at least a few permanent residences there. It might be a huge metropolis like the City of Brass, or it might be a town like Madhouse on Pandemonium, or it might be a small citadel like the Dustmen's floating retreat on the Negative Energy Plane. Even the Plane of Vacuum has a few small settlements of barmy sods who live there.

Each one of the Inner and Outer Planes also has a fundamental nature that pervades and suffuses every particle of every location within the plane. The Plane of Smoke, for example, isn't simply an infinitely big space filled with smoke. It's an infinitely big space filled with the idea of smoke. And while a basher living on the Plane of Smoke may be able to keep the smoke out of his kip with magic, there's no magic around that can keep out the idea of smoke. Because the idea of smoke is what the Plane is all about.

For those who have already been born, being constantly suffused with the fundamental nature of a plane doesn't have much effect. The process of being born tends to give a person a sense of self that's hard to change. Even babies fresh from the womb are already starting to define themselves on a very basic level. And once you start defining your sense of self like this, the fundamental nature of the plane you're living on won't have much affect on you.

On the other hand, children who are still developing in the womb don't have this sense of self. As a consequence, it's possible for a child to literally be touched by the plane while developing in the womb. Humans are more likely than any other race to have this happen, but it can happen to any race. And even for humans, it's a rare occurrence -- the overwhelming majority of the folks born on the planes are of the same race as their parents, and show no signs of being Planetouched. But every so often, two otherwise normal parents will produce a Planetouched child. That's just the way of the Planes.
