dp has just made such an offensive statement....

[inbetweener]

I am so angry.

We were having a conversation about an article in the paper about babies and all of a sudden he pipes up with " well I think a DNA test should be offered as standard as soon as your baby is born " Wtf !!!!!

I asked him why and he said that it would stop a lot of men being fooled and forced to bring up another man's child !

I have just flown into a rage and we have had a massive row. He seems not to see how fucking offensive that is. I can't get through to him that that suggests there is no trust !! He said, yeah but it eliminates doubt !!!!!
What !!!
Am I wrong to be so offended ? And wondering where my dh is and who this Dick is in his place !!

Understandable SGB and that just illustrates how most women are not pathological liars who merely want maintenance payments. I can also fully understand however, a male asking for a DNA test if he doesn't know the woman very well, if for instance it was a one-night stand or the result of an affair.

The current situation, I think, stands well. DNA tests are available to anyone who asks for one and the baby cannot have it's DNA extracted without permission from either parent.

I don't have a problem with anyone asking where there is reasonable doubt ie no previous agreement to sexual exclusivity around the time conception occurred. But the idea that any woman in a monogamous relationship should be routinely treated like a dishonest slag eg her word is worth nothing is absolutely horrible.
