This could very well put an end to virtually all sperm donations. This would not only affect members of the gay community, but also the ability of straight couples with infertile men have a child, and possibly even scientific research. Men are not going to be willing to donate knowing they could be pursued later by the government for child support.

The gay community should be taking a VERY large interest in this case as it could very well lead to the destruction of their “artificial” way of procreation.

>>"And strangely, the LGBT community remained silent, never trying to argue that the same sex couple should be forced to live up to their contractual obligations as parents. Theoretically marriage equality advocates should have been supporting Marotta because it would strengthen the idea that same sex couples who adopt children should be treated the same as all parents. Sadly, that was never the case."<<

Well what does this tell us about the integrity of this community? Pretty much what I've always thought of the majority that i've met and gotten to know. They seem to only want acceptance and 'normalcy' until faced with the costs and responsibilities associated with life. And worse, the bureaucracy and court system supports them in their nonsense.
