Appeals court rules Arlington sperm donor doesn't owe child support

Wow... did NOT expect this to happen to Ronnie Coleman of all people. The idea that a man should be expected to pay child support to a child from a SPERM BANK even COMING to court in the first place, shows the sheer level of female entitlement within Western society.

"I learned a very valuable and easy lesson: Never donate sperm"

Coleman learned his lesson at the expense of a trial and was lucky to win. I have little sympathy for sperm donors in these situations; sooner or later men must realize that our society gives strict liability for any man's sperm without any attendant rights. It does not matter if it was stolen from you, it does not matter if you are underage, it does not matter if you had a contract - you will pay.

From LegalMatch.com:

Also, perhaps do to the lingering gender bias in our legal system, there have been almost no cases attempting to force an egg donor to pay child support (despite there being plenty of such cases for sperm donors).

Go ahead, blue pill men. Continue to believe that your rights are protected as well as any woman's. Ignore MRAs, ignore the laws being passed against you, ignore the outrageous stories in the news - until you become the next Ronnie Coleman.

The government hates having to support women and children. They will attempt to pass the buck to just about anyone to write that expense off.

Aside from the rest of the idiocy involved in this, why in god's name did a single mother of one, want to raise MORE children by herself? Even if she had only one, and not three, what did she expect to happen? The children would complete her? Should could get paid not to work, and go back to work with no penalty?

Is this not the definition of insanity? Why is this so accepted? Why is the burden continually passed on to unwilling fathers, and the tax base at large?

Would society be accepting of an unemployed man, or even only a poor man, that is able to adopt a child without the means to care for it? No! Why is society acceptable of it for an obviously incapable mother [and the millions upon millions of other mothers,] just because they have the biological means to do so?

Unbelievable that it even came to this. Child support law is completely fucked in this country. We can thank the perverse system of incentives that are built into the law.

It's gotten to the point where virtually any woman can sue virtually any man for child support whether he is the biological father or not. The courts are only interested in enslaving as many men as possible. They couldn't care less about fundamental fairness.
