Not so much... 1 in 10 question paternity...
Twelve percent of men and 10 percent of women say they personally have been in a situation where paternity testing was "appropriate," according to a recent survey of 1,039 people conducted for Identigene, the Utah firm that markets direct-to-consumer DNA tests.

... but only 1 in 25-50 are correct in their suspicions:

But scientists who've studied what they call "misidentified paternity" say the actual proportion of faux fathers is much lower than the new survey would seem to indicate.
The population-based rate is probably closer to between 1 percent and 4 percent in western countries, with U.S. rates hovering between 2 percent and 4 percent, twice as high as Europe, said Michael Gilding, a professor of sociology at the Swinburne Institute for Social Research in Melbourne, Australia. He has spent years researching the issue.

/Also, "being in a situation where paternity testing was 'appropriate'" sounds like an mmf threesome, no? That would explain why it's a higher percentage of men than women

I wish I'd cheated on him and that wasn't his kid. Maybe he'd quit stalking us then.

For a sec I thought by "Kevin Federline" TFA meant "disgusting fat slobs." If that were the case, 10% would be an improvement!

Given on the maury show a 10% chance he isn't the daddy is rather low.

We recently found out that Mum's cousin isn't really her cousin. Mum's Uncle George came back from the war to find his wife pregnant by another man. It was never discussed until a few years ago after both of them croaked.

My first thought was 'how fat is that guy now?'. I can't decide whether the actual subject of tfa is better or worse...

Your Mom is a slut.

Unfortunately I look like both parents: my father's Dumbo ears and my mother's tiny chin. Compared to me Kevin Federline is gorgeous.

And of course feminists will say this is no big deal and that women are the real victims of paternity fraud.

I'm not exaggerating. (new window)

I once dated a girl whose older sister (the 1st child) had a different father, although her "real father" did not know this. That girl later went on to cheat on me with a midget. Personally, I think I dodged a bullet and am the only real winner in this story.

I'll admit, this is based off of what I see on TV, so it's probably wrong but....

I always get a kick out of the talk shows that show the angry woman who is 100% certain some guy is the father of her child, who then learns the child isn't his. THEN, and only then, does she remember she also banged this other dude. Then, in the following show, you see that dude and he's less attractive and works at McDonalds. Repeat.

Each time, the dude gets uglier and less able to provide.

I especially love when the dude is all, 'I take care o my responsibilities!'

By this point the chick looks ready to kill herself.

And yet he's nailing stuff like this.

Damn, that's just not right.

You only win if you come away with a midget.

I've been told that some women like heavy guys. They use words like "cuddly."

Found out last year my father had a sister that no one ever knew about. including his father.

Well, her mother knew, and so did the guy she married who raised her as his own. She always wondered why she was almost 6' tall and everyone else in her family was short.

who

is this self reported suspicion or actual science that shows 1:10 needs to be concerned about this? Because I'm smelling a hyped up sales pitch here instead of real science
