Should paternity testing be mandatory for all live births?

[DextroShade]

Yes, it is only fair

No, I support cuckoldry

[KrakenAttackin]

Oh bro... I have been down this rabbit hole with GAG several times. Here is what you will see: very few pink responses (women know how full of shit they are and they want to protect their right to cheat). The men will overwhelmingly support mandatory paternity testing, except for a few cucks who will say things like "I wouldn't be with her if I had any doubt who's child it was"... Good luck with that sport.

At the very least, a man should be able to have a paternity test done whenever he wants and if its nit his child he owes nothing in child support and may have a case for fraud against her or the real father.

[DextroShade]

Women never get punished for paternity fraud so under what I am proposing paternity fraud would be impossible.

[Jersey2]

Yes, it works for me.

[devilish-cutie]

yes, but it should also be mandatory for a man to take the test if a woman is claiming the baby is his and he is denying it, meaning mandatory to know the baby's father

[DextroShade]

In what I am proposing every baby gets tested against all possible fathers immediately and without the consent of the mother or potential fathers.

[devilish-cutie]

yes sure

[Anonymous]

That would solve a lot of problems.

I think it should be mandatory, so someone doesn't try to pull the wool over someone's eyes.

[inhua]

absolutely it should be mandatory and paternity fraud needs to be a crime

[Juxtapose]

Yes, absolutely. Trust but verify, always verify. If you blindly trust on such huge life choices then you are going to be betrayed. Remember that most men betrayed trusted their women.

[Daniela1982]

No, not unless it is requested. They don't have the time to test DNA on rape cases so this will just clog things up.

[Stacey55666]

You had a valid argument until you stooped to cuckoldry.

[laraWM]

No, our society is based on the declaration of parenthood and not on genetics. But you should be able to do it if you want to

[DextroShade]

Unless there is an adoption that is bullshit.

[laraWM]

That's the reason why marriage was created in the first place

[DextroShade]

Marriage was originally created to ensure paternity because the bride was traditionally a virgin on her wedding day.

[laraWM]

Yes exactly

[Drumlin2001]

Who pays for it? The mother? The state?

[DextroShade]

I would be perfectly fine with my taxpayer dollars being spent to end cuckoldry and paternity fraud.

[Drumlin2001]

Dollars. I assume you're in US. 3.5M births in US per year. I would imagine it would cost close to half a billion dollars per year at least to implement.
What should end is the automatic naming of a husband as the legal father, and the automated naming of an alleged father if they don't show up to court. Any child support claim should require a DNA test.

[msc545]

A paternity test costa about $ 30.00 now.

[DextroShade]

There are some single pieces of military hardware like a fighter jet that costs more than that. How many billions have we wasted on Ukraine? Even if it costs a half billion a year it's worth it.

[msc545]

Yeah, but we aren't allowed to compare anything to what military equipment costs because apparently defense contractors and the killing machines that they manufacture for hideously inflated prices are all sacred. You can tell because the US military budget is about a trillion dollars plus per year.

[msc545]

Absolutely YES

[elizamichale1]

But whts the benefit?

[Anonymous]

Nope unless it’s requested
