False Paternity - Only a Bad Thing When It Benefits Men
posted by Matt on 12:48 PM May 16th, 2006
Inequality RandomMan writes "In Germany, there is a loophole which allows men to 'falsely' declare paternity (there's a switch), allowing mothers with children to remain in the country and receive social benefits. The man receives some compensation from the woman for committing this fraud.

Unethical and immoral, but it's happening. However, women have been saddling men with false accusations of paternity as a money-making scheme for over a century, but now 'action is being taken', because something about all this lying might somehow benefit a MAN who chooses to lie. It's not that I support lying by anyone, but...double standard, anyone? The fact that this loophole exists because the laws were designed to permit the fraudulent naming of fathers for the profit of women seems to tbe quite lost on the government officials involved."

I feel sorry for the men who took the bait. I am quite sure that shortly these "fathers" will start getting bills for child support.

Its totally disgusting to see that if an institution perchance benefits men it is seen as inherently evil, because men are supposed to be in charge of their own destiny (read: earn their own money to shovel into the welfare system) and any man that draws on welfare is morally bankrupt, while any woman that does so is struggling and deserving of help.

No wonder the German gov. is nervous! A Man, which by design is to be cuckolded and forced by coercion and law to work themselves to death is taking advantage of the system! How in the world can they oppress the Men as mules if there is a way for them to act like Women, and sell their protection? That cannot be tolerated now can it? It could even start an equality movement! The German Fatherland is not a very kind patriarchy now is it? "It is a good day to die!"
