Say that you have an affair with a woman. Say that you have oral sex with this woman. Say that this woman saves the sperm, uses it to impregnate herself, and then files a paternity suit two years later.

Well, this is exactly what a Chicago doctor accuses his former lover (also a doctor) of doing. The man has filed a lawsuit, suing his former lover for emotional distress and "theft of sperm," claiming he found out about the child 2 years after the fact, when she filed a paternity lawsuit. He is now being forced to pay $800 a month in child support.

A few points:

1) Theft of sperm??? Have you completely lost it??? She stole your sperm??? She confronted you in an alley, at gunpoint, and said, after flashing a menacing scowl, "Gimme the sperm."??? No. You gave the sperm, dude. Valiant effort with the lawsuit, because with the way the courts are going, who knows, but no. She didn't steal it. Sorry.

2) What a b*tch. If what the doctor accuses her of is true, what a b*tch. She engaged in oral sex with him, and if this is all they did, he had no expectation nor desire to father a child. If oral sex is all that happened, she put him under the impression that there was absolutely no chance that their relationship would progress or be complicated beyond the level of affair. By keeping sperm and using it to impregnate herself, she pretty much did the equivalent of going to a sperm bank and getting herself pregnant. The only difference is that she cut out the middleman institution and acquired her own sample. To do this and decide, a year after the fact, that you want to file a paternity lawsuit is outrageous. Sperm donors are performing a public service, really, donating their genetic material for the benefit of other individuals who, for one reason or another, do not have viable genetic material of their own. This woman reduced his role to that of a sperm donor, and the fact that he has to pay is completely insane.

I grant that this article does not go into the whole scope of their relationship, and is really quite fuzzy on whether or not they had actual sex. My previous observations are based on the assumption that the information presented in the article is true, that is, assuming that what the guy accuses her of is the truth.

My god. That is just messed up. Sounds like they are both a few bricks short of a full load.

Why steal it when there's so much floating around for free? Seriously, ladies, just pick a spout and belly up to the bar!

this is the other reason (besides lettin her know how much she's appreciated) you should make a point of kissing a woman when she goes down on you.

It is better to be surprised when you kiss her than to have Jimmy show up at your door 6 years later wondering why you haven't been at any of his birthdays.
