I found this gem on Facebook a few minutes ago, it’s a story with every twist and turn necessary to be made into a basic cable “movie of the week.”
For those of you who can’t make out the text in the above image, I’ve got it copypasta’d here all bingo-bango for ya:
In Stuttgart, Germany, a court judge must decide on a case of honorable intentions in a situation where a man hired his neighbor to get his wife pregnant.
It seems that Demetrius Soupolos, 29, and his former beauty queen wife, Traute, wanted a child badly, but Demetrius was told by a doctor that he was sterile.
So, Soupolos, after calming his wife’s protests, hired his neighbor, Frank Maus, 34, to impregnate her. Since Maus was already married and the father of two children, plus looked very much like Soupolos to boot, the plan seemed good.
Soupolos paid Maus $2,500 for the job and for three evenings a week for the next six months, Maus tried desperately, a total of 72 different times, to impregnate Traute.
When his own wife objected, he explained, “I don’t like this any more than you. I’m simply doing it for the money. Try and understand.”
When Traute failed to get pregnant after six months, however, Soupolos was not understanding and insisted that Maus have a medical examination, which he did.
The doctor’s announcement that Maus was also sterile shocked everyone except his wife, who was forced to confess that Maus was not the real father of their two children.
Now Soupolos is suing Maus for breach of contract in an effort to get his money back, but Maus refuses to give it up because he said he did not guarantee conception, but only that he would give an honest effort.
Where to begin? Maybe we can start with the man who’s paying his kinda-sorta doppleganger neighbor to donate sperm “the old fashioned way” as opposed to the less intrusive artificial insemination procedures which are popular today? Nah. How about we talk about the guy who’s been fathering someone else’s children for years because he didn’t know of his infertility? No, not that either. Obviously we don’t want to talk about the dirt cheap $34/session gigolo deal, that’s now in question.
Personally, I want to begin with the fact that this whole thing was stolen from an obscure Ryan Reynolds movie that I watched on Netflix a while back.
Ok, that trailer doesn’t really explain the connection, and actually now that I think about it, that movie was kinda fun and I don’t want to ruin it for you guys. Trust me, there are similarities. So, um, yeah watch it. Also, now you can gossip with your girlfriends about this Melrose Place-y drama over in Germany. I’d suggest you enjoy it over a nice box of Franzia. You’re welcome.
One more thing, In the off chance you’re a porn producer, please use this story as your next loose plot line. You’d pretty much be guaranteed to win an AVN award.
