I find that having sex with the person provides the access necessary to surreptitiously obtain a DNA sample.
Joking. Only joking.

Sure, but I would rather avoid getting into a ‘crying game’ situation... and find out as early as possible.
Note that short of a genetic analysis, we might be able to come up with an app that would analyze facial features - might not work with freaks that were ‘transitioned’ when prepubescent - and this is becoming a trend - but could help in the screening process... I wonder how long it would take for such an app to get banned.

I've gotten to the point where any new person I might potentially meet or have to deal with gets a background check, seriously. You'd be surprised how many seemingly normal, well, normies have suits pending against them, severe debt, criminal records, etc.
If DNA were added to the mix I don't think I'd ever sleep again.
