I get what you’re stating. I think there’s a point to be made on the financial implications in a male rape as well. If the dude is unconscious and raped, if it ends in a pregnancy unknown to the man, woman decides to keep it, she then has a free ticket to get the guy for 18 years of child support.
I say this because it happened to a good friend of mine. Woman didn’t reach out until the kid was 16, boom, garnished wages for back child support. Completely fucked his financial stability, and the dude was married with 3 kids. He never knew the woman or the kid, literally lived on the other side of the US.
There’s definitely some improvements that could be made to the current systems.
It’s possible she got knocked up from a spring break fling and never knew who the father was. Years later, she could have submitted her kids DNA to 23 and Me and got a match.
Yeah they went through all the hoops, kid was his. Custody wasn’t a thing due to distance and being estranged for so long. Idk, you’d think something would be in the system to prevent it but it exists. Thankfully it didn’t cause issues with his current wife, and obviously his kids knowing didn’t need to be a thing. Basically just picked up a bill. Really is disgusting, and the chick that did it had like 2 or 3 kids, all different dads. So yeah, genetic scammer I guess?

He is definitely on the hook for child support because the child deserves those benefits, and that’s the way it should be.
Shared custody / co-parenting often reduces the raw financial burden, but the child still needs parenting and support, and if she’s the only one putting in time, then under Capitalism, he has to put in money.
Also, in many states, if the child gets governmental benefits based on being in a low-income family, the state will often aggressively seek out the other parent, even if the primary parent doesn’t really want to deal with them.
I’m not defending male rape, but I am defending taking care of all humans since none of us asked to be born. If the child (and everyone else) got UBI, there would be less (or no) reason for child support payments.
