>potential harm to the children's psyche
What about the potential harm to the psyche of a husband who doesn't know if he is the father of some children?

So the suffering of men doesn't matter and men should just silently deal with it? That sounds like toxic masculinity.

Whining and complaining about your responsibilities after courts ruled against you isn't really mature either. Distributing the burden of child raising on both parents, and not just the mother, is an important part in actual gender equality.
Children are generally granted more protections. Not sure how to complain about that without sounding weak and immature.

On the other hand, if you're going to extract payment, you should probably have to provide evidence that payment is due.
I'm not a lawyer, but my understanding is that this law inhibits laboratories outside of France in doing business in France.
And DNA testing seems too easy to me to be prohibited. We shed DNA all the time and it is becoming easier and easier to run PCRs or even sequence genomes.
Of course, the legal issue is with the invasion of privacy, and potential harm to the children's psyche, so there is actually some justification.
