Websites with good information on paternity fraud
Canadian Children's Rights Council
The Canadian Children's Rights Council is supportive of human identity rights for all people including those that
were adopted and child victims of paternity fraud. Their website is the most visited children's rights website in
Canada. It contains substantial information on the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child and how it applies
to a newborn infant's right to human identity and his/her right to a relationship with both biological parents.
They advocate for mandatory government paid paternity determination even before birth using
non-invasive paternity testing.
They also have some interesting information on human identity and major medical information rights
for those people created using donor sperm or eggs.

Men's Issues Online ( one of the largest
in North America, Over 1,000 members)
Men's Issues Online (MIO) covers a broad variety of issues affecting men, including men's health and safety,
divorce and custody, reproductive rights, media bias, workplace issues, male only selective service, domestic
violence against men, education, unequal sentencing, and double standards against men.
MIO is intended to be an impetus to online and offline activism for men's advocates (of both sexes), in order to
address these issues. It is not intended to be anti-woman, but rather seeks to treat men and women as individuals
while eliminating the misandry (hatred of men) promulgated by gender and radical feminists. MIO also recognizes
that misandry crosses national, racial, and ethnic lines, and is hence part of an international community of
pro-male websites.
Pro-Choice for Men
Choice4Men is about:
-
The right to choose to become or not become a parent..
-
Men who have been trapped into parenting without their consent.
-
Men who want to be fathers but are not allowed to be involved in their children's lives.
-
Granting men the same rights as women.
-
Informed consent instead of involuntary servitude.
-
Fairness.
-
Women deciding what is best for themselves without obligating others.
-
Women accepting responsibility for their reproductive choice.
-
Draconian child and spousal support awards that wreck lives and futures.
Choice4Men is not about:
-
Restricting a woman's right to choose whether or not she chooses to become a parent.
-
Men deciding what is best for women.
-
Willing fathers walking away from their openly accepted relationship and financial
responsibilities.
In the landmark ruling, Roe vs. Wade, the United States Supreme Court recognized the unfairness of
forcing women to become parents. The Court recognized the irrevocable life changing nature of becoming a
parent and saw that the state had no right to impose that burden on anyone against their will. Choice4Men is about
the same rights for men. Choice4Men is about the right to become or not become a parent.
Men's Health
American men die 5.5 years sooner than women. This lifespan gender gap is the result of many disparities: gender
health research, health insurance coverage, medical care utilization, and lifestyle factors, which all favour
women. This moderated list is dedicated to eliminating health care disparities, so men can live longer, healthier
lives.

We aim to prevent this incidence from occurring by showing the men and the community at large that someone
really cares...
American Coalition for Fathers and Children (ACFC)

The National Center For Men (U.S.A.)
It was incorporated in 1987, is dedicated to the advocacy of men's equal rights. We educate the public
about how men have been hurt by gender discrimination and we also counsel individuals and families who have been
damaged by discrimination against men.
The National Center For Men has a long track record of public advocacy of men's equal rights,
especially on radio and television talk shows. Our representatives have argued for men's rights, fathers' rights
and men's reproductive choice. We have educated the public about male victims of domestic violence, men's health
concerns and how men are often victimized by false accusation, particularly during divorce. We have resolutely
made the case for men's equality in every area of life, including the right of men to make choices traditionally
reserved for women.
National Center for Men's Voluntary Fatherhood Project (U.S.A.)
The laws that protect men and women from being forced into parenthood are highly discriminatory. Women are
protected by abortion and abandonment laws. But when men are lied to about birth control or fertility, paternity
and child support laws can disrupt their education and force upon them a future of distress associated with the
unwanted child, support payments, the stigma of illegitimacy and a gut wrenching anguish that most people can't
imagine.
This website is the portion of the National Center for Men website dealing specifically with
paternity fraud and equality for men of reproductive equality.
