If I donate my testicles as a donor for whatever reason, and they have a child, is that child mine?

More a shower question than a shower thought I guess, but still.
Genetically, yes technically.
Legally and Morally, no; and you'd be a complete asshole for trying to insert yourself into the childs life in any way. You gave up that 'right' when you donated your sperm/testicles.
Legally, in some states sperm donors can be forced to pay child support. So, it might be more of a gray area than you think
According to snopes, it looks like you need either fraud, professional misconduct, or an interaction beyond an anonymous donation.

'course, it's easy to imagine a woman telling some guy she wants a "sperm donor" and then being awarded child support. Which, in fairness, is also usually a strong argument from the guy to have partial custody.
I thought that was just the premise for a film
I don't know if this is correct or not, but it really feels like a bullshit exaggeration that white men spread to prove that they are the MOST oppressed people.
