SUBTITLE: Man is NOT responsible for child support for a child conceived during oral sex.

http://www.cnn.com/2005/LAW/02/24/sperm ... index.html

Oh man, from the world of the bizarre. There's too many good quotes here:
Phillips accuses Dr. Sharon Irons of a "calculated, profound personal betrayal" after their affair six years ago, saying she secretly kept semen after they had oral sex, then used it to get pregnant.
It disturbs me that this is even possible.
He said he didn't find out about the child for nearly two years, when Irons filed a paternity lawsuit. DNA tests confirmed Phillips was the father, the court papers state.

Phillips was ordered to pay about $800 a month in child support, said Irons' attorney, Enrico Mirabelli.
Note to self: Time for that vasectomy I was considering last year.
The judges backed the lower court decision to dismiss the fraud and theft claims, agreeing with Irons that she didn't steal the sperm.

"She asserts that when plaintiff 'delivered' his sperm, it was a gift -- an absolute and irrevocable transfer of title to property from a donor to a donee," the decision said. "There was no agreement that the original deposit would be returned upon request."
Okay, how wierd is it that the state of Illinois considers semen to legally be a "gift" with an irrevocable title?
"Imagine how a child feels when your father says he feels emotionally damaged by your birth."
Imagine how that child will feel when it's old enough to understand that it was conceived through a blow-job?

I hate lawyers...

"An appeals court said a man can press a claim for emotional distress after learning a former lover had used his sperm to have a baby. But he can't claim theft, the ruling said, because the sperm were hers to keep."
Ok...Reading the article it seems as though a (b.j. ) got out of hand,Pun intended " Phillips accuses Dr. Sharon Irons of a "calculated, profound personal betrayal" after their affair six years ago, saying she secretly kept semen after they had oral sex, then used it to get pregnant.".End quote. Here's a question; How did she uh, transfer from there(oral) to the importiant area? I don't want to be rude, but that lady must be able to spit like a camel bent over like a carnival sideact. Allways something....
