Man fathers 21 children by 11 different women... and he's only 29
Daily Mail ^ | May 28, 2009 | Paul Thompson

A man aged 29 has fathered 21 children with 11 different women, it emerged yesterday.

Desmond Hatchett's brood came to light after authorities in Tennessee in the U.S. took him to court for non-payment of child support.

He has apparently set a U.S. record but said: 'It just happened.'

He added that he would not have any more children. 'I'm done. I'll say I'm done,' he said.

Hatchett, who earns a minimal wage, told TV reporters he knows the names and ages of all his offspring.

Authorities in Knoxville said they plan to take half of his monthly salary to pay for the youngsters but officials said that would work out to just over £1 a week for each.

actually, the only thing that seems to be 'fit' with this guy is his sperm count!

darwinian fitness mostly dealt with a male's ability to both produce and SUPPORT offspring by defending territory, providing food, etc...

this guy obviously cannot perform these functions. unfortunately, that state will step in and take care of his kids for him.

I doubt it is a record from some of the exploits of past NBA great's I have read about. At least with NBA players, they make enough money to pay child support.

Well I certainly hope this guy checks into the background of his girlfriends a little more than Dirk Nowitzki did.

It's the "cuckoo strategy." Works for the cuckoo, and works for the parasite in the PC society.

I am a racist pig because all it took was seeing the headline to know exactly what the picture would look like.

But on a positive note, I belong to the only race in human history that willingly subsidized (through public policy and immigration) their countries and cultures being subverted and subsumed and ultimately driven to extinction by other races and cultures ...

Buying birthday cards for all of his kids must take a chunk out of his minimum wage paycheck. Maybe he gets the cheap cards at Wal-Mart.

There was a minor German ruler in the 17th or 18th century who was reputed to have fathered 365 illegitimate children.

St. Catherine of Siena was the youngest of 25 children--I think all of her siblings had the same father and mother (no half-siblings).

I had an amcestor who had 21 children (by 3 wives--one wife at a time).

The women he fathered them with might have chosen differently if the state didn’t take his place as a father.

The animal is not the father of these kids.He's only the sperm donor.

The welfare system has made Darwinism irrelevant. In a Darwinian world, all those children would die because their “father” would not provide for them.

LOL. They’ll all be on welfare and get food stamps and we pay for them. Go figure. They should castrate him.

And his genetic line will continue far longer than mine or yours. Even the largest family in our Catholic parish has “only” 9 kids...

... it’s how he managed to hook up with so many women not using birth control.

I'm going to hazard a guess here that at least 3/4 of the "baby mamas" are receiving public assistance and 2/3 of them have children by men other than Studley. Cha-ching, it's how "mama" gets her $$$$, right out of the taxpayers' wallet.
