Virginia's biggest loser +1

So, William Taylor (left) really messed up. And his wife made him pay by wearing this silly sign admitting his adultery.
------------------------------------

Manlaw: Is this the new punishment for adultery? I hope not because no one is winning here.

William is "suffering" temporary embarrassment by wearing this silly sign but did he really learn his lesson and will he never cheat on his wife again?

We don't know that for sure.

His wife doesn't win either because the world now knows her husband stepped out on her and her marriage. I hope there are no kids in this family because they've been exposed to unnecessary shame not to mention family and friends that know these two idiots.

So, Mrs. Taylor if you really want to make a statement next time, do it quietly and file for divorce or better yet...stop with the gimmicks and make your cheating husband sleep on the couch with no sex for a month...that's if you plan to forgive him. If not, go with option No. 1 and keep the rest of the world out of your marriage.

Man's Not So Best Friend (Part 2)

You can call this a knockout blow for "Roy."

As the article states, "that's a pseudonym for a guy in New Jersey that was told in 1999 by his ex-wife "Bonnie" (also a pseudonym) that their youngest son was actually the child of "Patrick" (also a pseudonym) the boy's godfather with whom she'd been having an affair."

Sounds like a simple "he thought-she didn't tell the truth story"

However, the article also states... "the next year, "Roy" decided to sue "Patrick" for reimbursement of child support he had paid to take care of the child, "Darren." A lower court sided with "Roy" and ordered the biological father to pay the child support, a decision he appealed. The Appellate Court again sided with "Roy," and it was appealed to the Supreme Court."

As you probably guessed (if you didn't click on the link above), Roy lost on a technicality according to the article, "In its unanimous ruling, the Supreme Court ruled that "Roy" was not entitled to a child support reimbursement because under the state's Parentage Act claims must be filed before a child turns 23 years old."

Hence the manlaw: First, fellas read part 1 of this series. Second, find out if your state has a Parentage Act on the books, if yes, read every line of the law if you are involved in a paternity dispute. I believe the Parentage Act is different in every state that has one on the books.

Personally, I think Roy went about this the wrong way. He sued the wrong party. I would have sued "Bonnie" because it appeared to me that she 1) knew what the law stated and 2) she knew he wasn't the father all this time and 3) she f$cked up three people's lives (Roy, Patrick and Darren) in the process of revealing this information.

You think Roy will make the same mistake again? Well, I hope nobody is that f$cking stupid.
