A New York man was stunned to find out that his four-year-old twins were not an accidental pregnancy after all -- but that his desperate girlfriend secretly stashed away his sperm and used it for an in-vitro procedure, he charges in a lawsuit.
Joseph Pressil, 36, was not planning on having children with Anetria Burnett, with whom he was in a relationship for six months in 2007, he said.
So she took matters into her own hands, he told the New York Post, in order to remain in his Texas house and make a legal bid for half of his possessions.

If I may ask, how old is your boy?
And FWIW, this crap will come back and bite your ex in the ass. Trust me. Your son isn't stupid, he knows how his mother "supports" him and how his father "supports" him. When he is old enough to be on his own, the two of you will have a great relationship while your ex's relationship with him will be
Sometimes though it's the other way around, where the father has the child - and won't allow the mother to see the child - and it backfires that way as well - that was the case with my nephew - and it bit the father in the ass when my nephew grew up.
It's a shame when the children get caught in the middle of all this "drama" - I hate it, really, really, really HATE IT with a passion

It's so awful when children are brought into the world in an environment like that.

Of course my son likes her house better because I have rules and stuff, but I'm hoping that if I just stay consistent and everything, he'll figure it out...

Wow really? The father hardly EVER gets the child and usually there has to be something significantly wrong w/the mother.
Yes, there were issues, and unfortunately the person I'm talking about let the father pick said child up from school one day - and there was no custody agreement in place - and she was never able to get her son back again - had she called "me" - this would never have occurred - but she wasn't using her head at the time - and from there it went down hill - and it did indeed backfire on the "father" - because of what he said, did, and everything from that point forward.
Word of advice - do not demean the "mother" - no matter how much you hate what is going on - don't do it. Be consistent with your behavior with your son - but don't demean the mother in front of your son - he will figure it out on his own, given time. Children are very intuitive.
Stick with me here Ok? That man's sperm didn't really cease to be his body when he shot his load into the condom because she didn't have free access or his permission to it. She stole 'him' and created lives she had no right to create. Wasn't the man emotionally raped in a way like a woman would be from a woman's perspective of 'forced' sex (whatever that is....the definition varys widely) because the man's sperm could live for days when she begins to ovulate and all of a sudden she is pregnant.....why should the man be treated so differently, have no rights, and be forced to have children he never wanted or intended to have?
(to note, in the OP's article the man in this story wants full custody of his children and has supported his kids financially and currently has joint custody with psycho woman)
I think that's how it is similar to a woman who was raped getting pregnant. I'm not downplaying rape because I know it's genuinely violent and traumatized, but rather that she is now pregnant without ever giving consent. It's not as if this guy was irresponsible and didn't use protection.
I think any reasonable and prudent person would not expect this man to keep tabs on the condom and its contents after it was tossed away. It is absolutely absurd to think that he is in any way at fault for what this woman did.
For the next several years, that person, now a former friend or estranged family member...or former spouse, makes charges to that credit card they took from your purse, but you can't (according to your logic) claim the charges or unautherized or the card was ever stolen, so you should be forced to maintain that credit card and pay the charges for that former friend for the next 18 years....you're fine with that right, because YOU gave them your purse.
[quoteThere really isn't a comparable scenario because women do not expel their reproductive genetic material out of their body in any fashion where it would be viable and able to result in a pregnancy.[/QUOTE]Want me to hold your purse for you? Your credit cards better be in there!
What this woman did was horrible and no person deserves it. Sure it could fall into the shoulda woulda coulda, but it all boils down that this woman needs help. The kids will suffer and the man doesn't want them. Could I blame him? Maybe. But that is your kids whether you like it or not. Your DNA is a part of those kids. Anyone that can just walk away from their kids says a lot about their character. This man wasn't raped he had intercourse with her consensually.
I hope you think the next time before you write an analogy. Some people including myself have been raped on here. With that said, I will be putting this thread on ignore. I feel like I need to take a warm shower to get clean from feeling degraded once again by a man.
Here you go ladies...Wear this every time you walk out the door. It's a sure bet that rape will not occur. Have a nice day!
I'm so grateful to Caydensmom for teaching me that words actually do have power, and that the way we use them really does affect other people. Until Bella came along I'd have typed my fingers bloody telling you how words can't hurt us if we don't let them. Now... well, I'm a little more willing to look at my part in things today. I don't guess I'm allowed to trample all over someone else's feelings while I stand up for something I believe in.
There's more I could say - and a lot more that I want to say - but I expect that fanning those flames isn't going to do much more than feed my ego. When I put my head down on my pillow tonight I don't want this argument running through it. It's a pretty clear case of "I'd rather be happy than right."
(I think I've lost my appetite for this particular argument anyhow; people seem to mostly be agreeing that the woman who stole the sperm is wrong, and if we disagree about specifics, well, that can certainly be fodder for discussion on another day.)
I'm sorry for what happened to you & I hope you can find some peace with it someday.

I know it's not how you meant it to come out but it just flew all over me. Next time I will try to cool down before I make a comment. Have a good night, Sir.

If you consider your sperm that valuable, why are you giving it to someone to throw away? Or why are you throwing it away yourself? Wouldn't it make more sense for you to hold onto it for safe keeping?
If I tossed out a purse full of money and other stuff (which I wouldn't, that would just be stupid - are you saying men that toss out their sperm are stupid, too?) then I would fully expect someone to take it.
Nice analogy, thank you for making my point for me! You should probably be more careful where you're spreading that junk.

always take the condom with you after you're done.. ALWAYS
always take the condom with you after you're done.. ALWAYS
rationalization for something ?
I said once before that you hate men and I still think you do. You may be married but that doesn't prove you don't hate men, it merely confirms it in your case....and I'm not trying to be a prick and be mean, I am just being very honest.
So the *cough* 'logic' *cough* in your post seems to be like those teachers in high school that preach only abstinence. From what I remember of teachers like that it would go something like this:
Mrs. Mal: Don't have sex!
Satan: Why Mrs. Mal?
Mrs. Mal: Don't have sex until you're married!
Satan: But why, Mrs. Mal? Why shouldn't I ever have sex until I'm married?
Mrs. Mal: Just don't have sex, you little bastard!
Satan: Um...ok....
Using your *cough* 'logic' *cough* is the same, as a refresher for you since you didn't get it the first time. See, it doesn't matter whether you like it, my analogy to show the insanity of your 'logic' in your argument....your disliking it that I exposed how wrong you are doesn't change that I did. Just claiming victory like you did doesn't mean you are suddenly right, that all men are at fault for whatever a woman does......because they are men. Just means you hate men.
So here it it again for you: if you gave your purse to someone to hold for you for a few minutes while you tried on clothes at a store. That person (using your 'logic') could then reach into your purse and take your cash, your credit cards, and it would be your fault. You would have to even keep that credit card and pay the bills for years into the future as that person used it at their pleasure....because you are at fault and you need to be held responsible for your choices.
Mrs. Mal: It's beautiful!
Satan: But why Mrs. Mal?
Mrs. Mal: It just is, you little bastard! Now shut up! I'm right!

What else should I do with it? Invent a sandwich spread for some people that might like that sort of thing? Just not have sex? Yeah, that sounds like what you are really suggesting....for men. Then the same would be true for women too....right? Just don't have sex. Don't ever get an abortion....just don't have sex. Has to be the same to be fair.....right?
Safe keeping for what? Is my semen going to be declared a legal currency so I can buy things at Target? Is my semen going to become a commodity and traded on the market? Or are you still on that sandwich spread idea? Why would I need to hold onto it when I create more all the time?

That's your analogy, your 'logic' not mine. The man is at fault because he let her throw out the condom, and she kept the condom or extracted the semen from it, so the man is at fault.....because he's a man.

The only point you have made is in showing more clearly that you're full of hate for men and/or that you're possibly.....um....
Satan: But Mrs. Mal, if my (or any man's) semen is 'junk' something you find to be detestable and something you don't want to have exist because it's icky, then what does that make your 'stuff'? You know, your eggs....especially when they are evacuated from your body every month with.....with....when your Aunt Flo visits?
Mrs. Mal: It's beautiful!
Satan: But why Mrs. Mal?
Mrs. Mal: It just is, you little bastard! Now shut up! I'm right!
Miss |V|al is correct. People should be more careful and selective about who they "sleep" with. Condoms break, people forget to take pills, etc., etc. and unintentional pregnancies occur everyday. If you don't want to "be attached" to the person you are about to have sex with, for the rest of your life, you probably should reconsider farking them.
Besides that, if you fark up and contract HIV, AIDS or other permanent STD, your chances of finding someone who is actually willing to marry you drastically decreases.
