From what I read, about 2% of the tests show the man is not the father when there is no reason to question his paternity. That is the main reason that I support testing, although the men in this thread are doing their best to change my mind.

It's more than just wanting a test (be paternity, regular STD testing in case of cheating, whatever) as has been pointed out by several people. It speaks to the quality of your relationships and by extension the quality of the life you're living. You guys live without trusting the closest person to you, your intimate partner. That deviates greatly from what many of us experience, although I know you're not alone in your views and experiences.
But see Braunwyn here is the thing, you keep saying quality, and quality is subjective. I believe in peoples freedoms, I believe a WOMAN should do what she wants, even if that means sleeping with other men. I have no issue with that. I dont support telling women how to live or what choices to make. So quality is subjective Braunwyn.You have to agree that quality is subjective right? Thanks for not attacking me by the way. I want a test simply for me. Its for me, not for her, not against her, It is entirely for me. If my girlfriend contest and wants to leave, she is free to go and Ill will start over. I will not ask her permission after birth or say this is how I feel prior to sex. Its my busy. Thats all I am saying.

Isn't that exactly what you do with women?
Women are all bad, all marriages suck, etc etc etc.
Read your own posts, I don't believe we're saying ALL of anything.
You've very clearly stating: call them out on one or two of the things women do...
My question is who do? All women, most women? All women you know and that's why you have such a negative posting history about women? I'm not sure, but it's unattractive and certainly doesn't draw warm relationships to you.

When you feel so negatively charged against women, we can feel it, it colors your entire being.
Ever think that might be part of your problem in the dating world?

So you claim to be dishonest, as you accuse all women of being.
Do you not see the irony of your statements?
When you are dishonest, and you admit that you are, it talks of your character as a person.
Character is important; probably the most important thing when looking for spousal material.

It seems, from your responses, that you don't trust women because you're not trustworthy.
How will this attitude benefit you in your young life?
Do you not see how this will get in your way and cause you problems for the next many decades?

I would go along the paternity test if it was that important to him. But I would never look at him the same way again.

Life. Cockold is worse than rape.

Well you obviously have a problem with my take and again that is your problem. I think you are a control freak. You want control over a man testing or not. That is my take on the things you have said here. See ya later.

It's not about ego, it's about avoiding any possibility of devastating pain. Men who hear stories of guys being tricked for all of these years relate to the devastation and wasted emotions.

This is why it should be mandatory for all. For once, something will be done to protect the rights of children and men. As it currently stands, the divorce industry is completely devoted to women.

It's about time that biological fathers were the ones paying child support and that all kids know their biological heritage. There are medical reasons for this now and they will likely increase a lot in the years ahead.
