Abstract

Abstract:Through recollection, Junior, a lawyer who has spent a decade prosecuting intimate partner violence, is faced with the biases inherent to legal presumption when she finds herself having to prove to the Pennsylvania Superior Court that the child she brought into the world with her wife can legally be declared hers. In the context of family law, a child born of a married couple is presumed to be the husband's, regardless of biological relation. However, this presumption only applies to cis-men. It does not apply to cis-women wives who, though not biologically or gestationally related to a child, have taken on the full breadth of financial responsibilities, emotional devotion, and medical actions necessary to bring that child into the world. With queer women's rising reliance on ART, cases like Junior's are happening more and more.

推定父子关系,但不平等
摘要:小詹姆斯(Junior)是一名律师,曾花了十年时间起诉亲密伴侣间的暴力行为,当她发现自己必须向宾夕法尼亚州高级法院证明,她与妻子所生的孩子可以合法地宣布为她的孩子时,她通过回忆,发现了法律推定所固有的偏见。在家庭法中,夫妻双方所生的孩子被推定为丈夫的孩子,无论其血缘关系如何。但是,这种推定只适用于顺式男性。它不适用于那些与孩子没有血缘关系或妊娠关系,但却承担了将孩子带到这个世界上所需的全部经济责任、情感奉献和医疗行动的同性妻子。随着同性恋妇女对 ART 的依赖程度越来越高,像 Junior 这样的案例也越来越多。
