Can this possibly be real? Really? And if it is, doesn’t she know that all she needs to do, to find any baby-daddy, is to go on The Maury Povich Show?

  1. If you are having so much unprotected sex with so many guys that you can’t reasonably figure out who the father is, you just may be a slut.

  5. maury… are you serious or seriously stupid.
    she doesn’t have a name to give to maury for him to manipulate.
    longshot for sure, but admirable in that she affords opportunity for daddy to know he has another product in the world.

  7. Slut shaming — the first action of a wingnut. It’s like a hobby for them.

    She’s said she hasn’t had any other lovers since that night, and she didn’t abort the child, she’s responsibly trying to find the father, so you’d think the wingnuts would give credit, where credit is due…

    But nooooooooo, because wingnuts are all about attacking women for sexuality, no matter the facts.

  8. There are Child Support issues here. I don’t believe that Denmark has a bilateral agreement with the US, so she may not be able to enforce the court order in the US. But Finland and Norway, as well as other countries have an agreement with the US and the US will enforce them. Denmark could sign one in the future.

    Of course, it’s the right thing to do, support your child. So, go find her and do the right thing.

  9. @1 if you can’t comprehend the meaning of the words, “I haven’t been with anyone since then, so I know it is you.” you just might be a dumbass.

    And if there’s anything a dumbass hates more than a slut (i.e., someone enjoying more sex than the dumbass is having — which would be “some sex”), it’s a beautiful, happy, well-adjusted slut.

  10. ROLF “don’t remember where you’re from” “or don’t even remember your name”

    Maybe the fathers name is Oscar, and she needs to receive a golden one now!

  12. @9, and posting this is going to change the situation? Fuck you are a moron. It’s a fucking hoax and needs to be treated as such.

    @10, go fuck yourself. With a chainsaw preferably.

  14. This is a sad video. And, it’s something to consider that women are placed in this situation with the full ramifications while men aren’t.

    I don’t get the sense that this is a hoax. And, even if it were, it raises legitimate questions.

  17. @ Loveschild
    “ROLF “don’t remember where you’re from” “or don’t even remember your name”

    Maybe the fathers name is Oscar, and she needs to receive a golden one now! “

    This is why God’s grace will continue to slip away from you Loveschild.

    That and the fact that you’re nasty, ignorant, and stupid. God hates stupid ignorant people. She told me last night. She mentioned you by name.

  19. @10, whats the matter Loveschild? A little upset some white woman had a better idea on how to find the father of her child than you did? You can make a video too you know. I don’t think she holds copyright on this.

  20. So many things wrong with this vid. Um, hello? Date? “One and a half years ago” doesn’t help much. Ok, the “Customs House Pub”, but really, can’t you give a better location? Denmark’s small, but not that small. And yes, you don’t remember where he was from, but evidently he speaks English (and presumably not Danish).

    That’s just the beginning…

  22. How many times in my life, went to a bar, sorta remember talking to someone and *BAM* I’m pregnant! Usually I’d think it was a date rape drug but you know; I thought I’ll just be quiet about it for 18 months. I mean the guy may just show up or maybe I can post a video on YouTube?

    I just can’t count the times this happened to me. Or take my brother: he seems to go to parties and apparently accidently has his dick fall into some vagina and blows a load. He doesn’t remember much about it but 9 months later some lady is claiming he knocked ’em up.

  24. Forgive my crassness, but I kind of wish I HAD impregnated her. Good genes, those Danes. Yowza.

    I’m not entirely convinced it’s not a viral campaign for condoms or something, but I’ll allow the possibility that it’s legitimate. In which case, I wish her luck.

    @10 Your world is a very black and white one isn’t it? One day, something will come along which your binary “good-evil” logic system can’t handle and that throbbing “justice” vein of yours will pop right out of your head. So, have fun with that.

  26. A few short years from now when we all have our genomes sequenced at birth, the Global Healthcare Services computer can use its extra processing time to find matches between people who didn’t know they were related.

  28. Aw man, this made me so sad for her. She seems like a sweetheart and I hope this somehow gets back to the baby’s father and he contacts her. I didn’t detect any acting, so if she is following a script and this is a hoax then she’s damn good.

  29. No way is this a hoax. A), hoaxes are generally calculated to galvanize or panic, rather than merely bemuse, those to whom it is floated; and B) anyone who DID think he might be the father due to recognizing the mother, time, circumstances, etc. would still quite reasonably expect a positive paternity test before undertaking visits, support, whatever.

  32. it is both a touching plea and a sad story. the guy could not respond for any number of reasons, including that he’s involved or even married now (or was then). it can be difficult to explain how you suddenly have a daughter.

    still, were i the father, i suppose i would want to know about it. gone by morning, though… eeek. snuck out while she slept.

  33. @1 – the problem isn’t that she can’t reasonably figure out who the father is. She knows who the father is, she just doesn’t know his identity because he’s gone back to wherever he is from, making him just a bit more difficult to track down.

    Judgmental much? You don’t know this girl and you have no idea how much sex she’s having. For all you know she doesn’t normally have casual sex but this guy was some incredible, charming Don Juan. Not all babies come from unprotected sex either.

    She seems really sweet and I hope she finds the father, assuming that the father isn’t such an asshole that she’d be better off without him.

  34. snuck out while she slept.

    That makes me think he’s not going to contact her even if he did see this. If I met someone hot while on vacation, I’d want to tap that at least a few more times before I left. He did not/does not want to see her again.

    Anyway, if this were a hoax, that website would redirect to a condom company’s site or something.

  35. This is a viral ad campaign for a Danish “Maury Povich”. This is either a total hoax or performance art. I bet they’re trying to make the YouTube commenters look more ignorant and crass than they usually do.

  36. Banna @ 16:
    That doesn’t solve selfish men. If they’ll do this, they’ll lie about being on that pill. And it doesn’t solve the bigger issue,

    the HIV thing.

    She could have wound up with bigger problems than Li’l Augie there.

    Now, let me get back to booking a flight to Denmark. That AND free health care?!
