    you cant claim inequality for a nonexistent right.
    I'm sorry but... wat?

    hardly. raising a child is a huge burden not only financially but physically, emotionally, and a good chunk of time that could be spent in other areas. he pays a fee in return for doubling every other burden.
    Nope. The only unequal burden is in pregnancy. She is obviously willing to have a child if it's born. If he is not, he should not be held liable for her decision. If she decides to have it against his wishes (Which is her entitlement) and he is forced to support that decision the burden is then unequal for him.

    I think the misconception and issue is this

    Child support is money to the child not money to the woman. The child did nothing wrong in being born so of course that should still be payed

    But the flip side is the woman should be able to be forced to document spending twice that amount on the child. That is only fair. She may spend more (and in all fairness most probably do) but it should not be allowed to spend less than twice (that is to say both parties would account for expenses on part of the child equal to the child support amount) Maybe it is also already the case?

    I can't tell if you are incredibly unintelligent, completely not following what I'm saying, intentionally avoiding the obvious issue of the woman intentionally misleading the man so that she is acting under the premiss of attempting to get pregnant while he believes she is using contraceptives, or if you are so unwavering in your belief that no action could ever make a woman more responsible financially for a child that you refuse to see any perspective that might suggest that.

    regardless I don't need to know what reason you have for your response I simply know I'll be avoiding this thread and any more you post in of this topic as there is no point in logical discussion with someone who can't or won't consider a logical counter point to their stance.

    i believe the reason for that was because there was no official documentation that he was a donor.

    You remember that russian roulette analogy? How having sex is like playing russian roulette. And the problem was when the woman rigged the game and put a bullet in every chamber.

    Men's financial future shouldn't be subject to the risk of "crazy bitch impregnates herself on purpose".
    No, but it shouldn't mean people should be able to walk away without a care in the world, leaving the sole responsibility on the partner when there was no lies involved. It's like crying to the government because you made a bad investment and lost all your savings, tough luck. People should take responsibility for their own actions.
    The nerve is called the "nerve of awareness". You cant dissect it. Its a current that runs up the center of your spine. I dont know if any of you have sat down, crossed your legs, smoked DMT, and watch what happens... but what happens to me is this big thing goes RRRRRRRRRAAAAAWWW! up my spine and flashes in my brain... well apparently thats whats going to happen if I do this stuff...

    You can't prove that. What you can do is give men rights in court to defend themselves. Make it clear to women that if they could bear the whole burden of the child and it will discourage them from trying.

    The problem is that now they are above the law. This gives them the power to manipulate and rob their partners blind.

    There was a signed contract. That's pretty damn official.

    The problem the government had was that it wasn't done by a licensed physician (AKA they turkey basted it).

    That's not his fault.

    i already addressed the issue. it doesnt matter if there was any "misleading". if a woman misleads a man, both are responsible. if a man misleads a woman, both are responsible.

    i guess they want to be very careful about it. regardless, they simply didnt follow the correct procedures.

    You're being incredibly obstinate.

    You're attempting to hold a man responsible for something he never wanted a part of. Tell me, what harm is done if she is given plenty of notice and makes an informed decision?

    he decided he wanted a part of it when he had sex. he just decided the risk was worth the cost.

    To be honest, there's a difference between donating to a sperm bank and just giving the sample to someone without any legal documentation. The case I believe you are alluding to was the latter.

    But would you object to the man being able to sue her for the costs she gave him by said misleading though? In a fair world when we force expenses on others these others can sue us for the costs. Child support is an expense, by misleading (if such can be proved) you force such an expense on another. Is it not fair that this other should be able to sue you for said cost (in reasonable installments over 18 years)

    The child support should still be payed ofcourse

    Whut..?
    Point one: If a man pokes holes in his condom to impregnate a woman against her wish, then HE is responsible and should take care of the child and pay for the damages he caused. Actually, she could probably get a case of rape through; even though the intercourse itself was not involuntary, the conditions of the intercourse were demonstrably involuntary.
    The same goes the other way round.

    The one doing the deceiving is at fault, and as such is responsible. And yes, I do consider it rape since the conditions of intercourse were involuntary, and had the partner been aware of these conditions, then the partner would have rejected intercourse. Which is... Rape.

    As for point two: They had an official document in which both parties agreed that the male would be nothing more than a sperm donor. Who cares if they save some money by not using a test-tube?

    Wow... if you think that's the thought that goes through anyone's head before they have sex I have to wonder if you've actually had sex.

    While it's true that I advocate personal responsibility, it's just that. I advocate personal responsibility. I do NOT advocate having obligations you've made clear you don't want thrust upon you.

    When a woman keeps a pregnancy and the father does not want it, there is no sound reason he should be held liable for her decision.

    Do you support the court's position that he should pay child support because the lesbian couple didn't go through the proper channels to have IVF done?

    Considering I have been propositioned without protection, and I turned down said encounter due to such circumstances, I'd say yes responsible men do think about pregnancy.

    How can i get in through your skull? It's like you making an investment with moderate risk and your financial partner screwing you over behind your back. You need to be able to defend yourself from fraud/entrapment.

    Men as it is have no rights in court, this empowers women to abuse their power and ruin lives. Laws cause the problem and they should fix it.

    Did the court actually make that ruling or was it just the states position? I thought it was just the state in question taking that position

    Tbh, the child support in Sweden is nowhere close to that of America. Just about anyone can manage the child support in Sweden. Average is about 180€ for child support I believe.

    well it seems a bit silly but if theres procedures in place they must be followed.
