And so many wonder why they can't have decent relationships.
Most of them simply distrust and pretty much don't like women.
All women are whores, you know, and they're just waiting to hurt every man that they encounter.
The men, you see, are all perfect.

I don't know why these guys would consider marriage and children in the first place.

I'm sure you've read the same stories we do about men who had no reason to doubt their child was theirs and put a lot of love and emotions into them for years before discovering they were fooled. That has to be devastating!

I'm sure you've seen the same court decisions where men were required to support children that aren't theirs while the biological father gets a pass.

It's not a waste of money for those who choose to pay for it out of pocket. I'm not advocating for mandatory paternity tests. I want men to be upfront with women about their intentions early in the dating / friendship process, and then pay for it out of pocket.
There is a subset of the male population who live double lives. Specifically, these men engage in the down low (or however you guys term it). These men put their unsuspecting wives at risk for HIV et al. I think I even saw a few youtube vids addressing it. I can't imagine being married to a man hooking up with other men and then giving me HIV. Omg. According to your reasoning it would make sense for women to demand weekly or monthly blood tests to be sure their men aren't engaging in this risky behavior because they read about other men doing this on the interwebz!11!. Ya know, there are stories and stats out there globally.

Nice try ladies, but disagreement in a debate doesn't necessary mean anyone dislikes or distrusts women, or any of the other things said above. I notice this is done a lot on this forum, as if any of you know any of the posters in real life. Are there some women haters (and man haters) in this forum? Sure, but not everyone who agrees on similar topics are that way.

One could say you dislike men for taking a position opposite to mine. Both assumptions are ridiculous, of course.

Trust me, call them out on one or two of the things women do, you are a certified woman hater according to the women on this forum.

Can you give us a general number of "more than enough" women who are fine with this. You said there are plenty.
I'd also be interested in how you broached this subject with these more than enough women.

Perhaps the soon to be father can request a dna test, so that he can view the results to see any potential genetic issues down the road

The difference, and this may be too fine a point for you to grasp, is that you will never find me making one charge, comment, assumption, about an entire gender (men in this case). How ever you and the women who choose to spend time with you want to play it is your own deal. Remember that much. What I take issue with is the assumption (on your part) that men are a singular entity. They are surely not. Marriage comes in all shapes and forms. The various shades of marriage, which is dependent on the individuals involved, are simply not available to you across the board. So, your question in the OP is ultimately moot. It's a question you would ask. It's not a question my husband would ask (for example).

I chalk it up to deficiencies to be honest. There's something wrong. In my world such people are considered broken. As noted by other posters, it's kind of sad. Fortunately, it's only entertainment discussion for me and not my problem.

Glad to see, I entertain you. I'm the office comedian at work and I aim to please.
