I've had three rather nice consequences.

I didn't comment on the other thread you started. But this is the second one today. You expect me to resist twice asking why this is such consuming interest?

You claim this can't happen to you. Yet it is an abiding worry (your compassion for the potential cuckholds of the world) here on FR.

Tell me again that it's all charity on your part.

What difference does his motive make to you?

Why do so many people on FR think they are fit to psychoanalyze others? Are there really that many shrinks in the membership?

I happen to think it is an interesting subject, and I ask again WHAT IS IT TO YOU? I have friends going through this crap, so I decided to educate myself and others to exactly what is going on.

When Jimrob annoints you as the Posting Policeman, then I will take you seriously. Until then, save it.

If I find ANOTHER interesting story, I'll post that one too. LOL.

(sticking my tongue out at you, also)

I don't get you. You think Buddah Boy is consumed with this issue. Don't you think a man should be upset to find out his child is not his? And what about the scummy mom who lies to her child all it's life, to believe that's his or her father. Don't you think the child when they found out would also resent the mom? I can't decide why the moms do it. I know in a case here in AK of a woman who did it because she wanted to get welfare and had to apply for child support.

Mamzelle,

ANY man, regardless of celibacy, monogamy, or vasectomy, is currently at risk for financial ruin due to child support. Here's how it works --

(A)A slut whom I've never slept with, let alone sired a child on, randomly picks me and names me the father of her child.
(B) She submits my name to the Child Support agencies, but gives a false or old address.
(C) I never receive the notice, and don't show up in court. (The court will not make any further attempt to locate me... BEFORE the judgement, anyway.)
(D) Since I don't show up, I never have a chance to contest paternity, or demand a DNA test.
(E) The court enters a "default judgement" of paternity which CANNOT be overturned.
(F) All of the sudden, personnel at work calls me to tell me about a garnishment order. (That's the first time I'll ever hear about it.) A large percentage of my money will be taken away, and my family will plummet into POVERTY.

At this point I have no recourse. It doesn't matter if the DNA doesn't match. It doesn't matter if I never slept with the woman. In fact, it doesn't even matter if I never met the woman -- some men have been nailed just by having the same name as an accused father! Once a default judgement has been entered, it's all over.

My sexual morality doesn't protect me... or your husband.... or your son. A man like me, who stayed a virgin til marriage and has been 100% faithful afterward, can STILL be plundered to support a child that's not his. And neither my rights, nor my wife's rights, nor the best interests of MY OWN children would matter a hill of beans.

Therefore, despite my morals, paternity fraud threatens me, too. So, much as I may disapprove of promiscuous men, I totally agree with them on this issue.
