No one said they don't inherit traits. I said there are NO guarantees at all. Two stupid people CAN have intelligent offspring and vice versa. Two criminals can have a child who will never commit a crime. If you are trying to use this as an argument to say that children born as a result of rape will grow up to be rapists themselves or even to commit other crimes, then you are just WRONG. So there really is no argument for me here.

And I am saying that is a gamble for the woman to decide. There are no guarentees but there are odds. Odd are that if the bio-father is short and fat, the child will be too. The odds are if the biofather is a mental slow learner of a heritage of slow learned in IQ, so will the child. The same for known inheritable genetic health and disease traits. Etc
Unlike your apparent view, I think a woman should consider what traits she is at least attempting to give her child, rather than not giving a damn. If there is a high statistical chance the child will be born with spina bifida, extremely low intelligence, a highly unattractive physical appearance trait, or with physical handicaps, the woman ethically should not have that be the bio-father of her child, though if he could handle that she certainly still could marry him.
We know one woman who did exactly that - her children not biologically parented by her husband, but he is their father and the children know nothing different.
Not once have I even hinted that a child concieved in rape has a higher chance of being a rapist or a criminal. Never, not once.
