Actually, it only makes sense in the context of the female. The male's mitochondria don't matter, because he doesn't contribute any. But a woman's mitochondria are inherited by her children. So, if your wife concealed some third parent from you, you would never meet the woman whose mitochondria are going into your children.

That's kind of fucked up.
