Why should "foreseeable" assume everyone is decent?
Well, because the next logical step is, a woman pawing through the garbage of some random man she's never met, in search of a used kleenex for her impregnation purposes. I guess I'm not assuming decency so much as reasonableness.
And I don't think I can accept your analogy to rape victims -- you seem to be making a lot of assumptions to serve your analogy, whereas the options available to rape victims make the whole situation a lot more messy than that.
Do people own these? And hang them in their homes where they can peer down on them in the dark?
You think that's bad, try having The Hands Resist Him hanging over your headboard. One set of owners set up a motion detector camera because they convinced themselves that the figures were coming out of the painting and running around at night.
Aw, yesterday was Alexis Denisof's birthday -- and nobody mentioned it. Hope he had a good one.
Whedonesque said the 24th.
Wait -- they posted the message on the 24th -- but you're right -- it's today.
Oops.
He voiced a

character named "Zander." That's amusing.

eBay also sold an allegedly haunted wine cabinet, which now has its own Web site.

The bastards took away my music! Time to buy speakers for the iPod.
I can no longer listen to LaunchCast on my work computer. When they upgraded my equipment, they also blocked most internet radio stations. At least I can still listen to clips on Amazon, Tower, and CD Baby. I still need to shop

Yes, this. I just feel sorry for the child. The mother seems pretty fucked up to go to such lengths to conceive and then run the father through the ringer. That right there would tempt me to seek at least equal custody--to do what I could to insure the child's emtional well-being as best I could. Most of my sympathy in this case goes to the child.
Be sympathetic to the child if you want, but explain to me why the father should have feelings for the child other than what the average man on the street might have. Yes, the child shares some DNA with him, but the mother has to take all the responsibility for the pregnancy. The man did nothing that any reasonable person could justify as trying to ger her pregnant, or even taking the chance of accidentally impregnating her. If anything, they, as a couple, went out of their way to avoid an accidental pregnancy.
She then, without his knowledge, impregnated herself. It was an act of a single person, not a couple. It's the same as if she stole a random sperm bank sample. Quite frankly, if I were the judge, I'd take the child away from the mother, who appears to have some serious problems.
