Part of the perception is that the government is too feminist. I'll borrow one of my posts from another topic, and you can tell me if I'm missing something.
So if I understand the below correctly, a woman in the UK can lie about whether or not a child actually belongs to a particular man in order to get his wallet on the hook. The man can't get a paternity test without the woman's consent. Am I missing something? Because that sounds pretty fucked up and gynocentric to me.
Fathers who conduct secret paternity tests on their children will face prosecution under new laws to be proposed by a Government watchdog.
The Human Genetics Commission will recommend in a report to ministers that the theft of a person's DNA, including the clandestine removal of a child's hair or saliva, should become a criminal offence.
The proposal has come out of fears that increasing numbers of fathers are exploiting the growth of internet DNA testing services to undertake paternity checks without the consent of the child or its mother, with potentially traumatic consequences for all involved.
The law would also prevent private detectives, journalists, employers and others from gaining access to genetic information without the individual's consent, or using DNA left behind by an individual to check for diseases, genetic conditions or unknown relatives.
Earlier this week, the television producer Steve Bing - who Elizabeth Hurley, the actress, says is the father of her baby son Damian - was named in court papers as the father of a young girl caught up in the world's most expensive child support case.
And I don't think this gynocentric mindset is unrelated to people getting in legal trouble for criticizing Islam when you consider Intersectional Feminism.
Geez. It's like they're deliberately trying to ruin any possible defense the man might have in that case. Woman can accuse him of being the father to get child support, she has to consent to the DNA test that could disprove the claim, and he can be legally punished if he gets the test done without her permission. Dude is fucked. ---
