Sperm: The 'gift' that keeps on giving
CHICAGO — An appeals court said a man can press a claim for emotional distress after learning a former lover had used his sperm to have a baby. But he can’t claim theft, the ruling said, because the sperm were hers to keep. The ruling Wednesday by the Illinois Appellate Court sends Dr. Richard O. Phillips’ distress case back to trial court. Phillips accuses Dr. Sharon Irons of a “calculated, profound personal betrayal” after their affair six years ago, saying she secretly kept semen after they had oral sex, then used it to get pregnant. He said he didn’t find out about the child for nearly two years, when Irons filed a paternity lawsuit. DNA tests confirmed Phillips was the father, the court papers state. Phillips was ordered to pay about $800 a month in child support, said Irons’ attorney, Enrico Mirabelli....
Fuckin' right he can press a claim. The whole point of "going oral" is that there's no threat of a kid comin' down the pike in nine months. But, really, how does this happen? He finishes, and what, she runs into the bathroom and somehow spits out his junk and pops it the vajajay real fast? That's premeditated! Game over! Foul! Penalty! Bang. Pay attention!
