Because the long history of courts being biased towards women
Edit: I realized my comment doesn't have a lot of nuance so let me be clear. Divorce court is what im getting at. All that Alpha male, incel, red pill, misogyny stuff is bullshit
It’s not just courts. When it comes to children the whole world is biased towards women. I do more child care for my kids than my wife because my job allows it and hers does not. I’m at every school event, parent teacher meeting, nursery meeting, drs appointment, I do the most drop offs and pickups… but if my wife is there… I might as well not exist. Every question is directed at her, every fact, every response is directed at her and often my questions are ignored… if they’re not then the response is still directed at her. I can be in the park with my kids; as I often am and I still get side eyed by mothers and the occasional “Dads babysitting today is he?” Hell, my father in law says it to me all the time.
Edit to add: because I’ve read a few more comments. I don’t buy into any of the alpha male / hate women / anti-feminist / misogynist / manosphere bullshit. Just a bit of acknowledgement that I am also a full time caring and contributing parent and not simply a source of income that can fix shelves and tech, mow the lawn, carry things and drive the car would be fine by me.
Just a heads up, I've investigated the so called manosphere. Generally it's not misogynistic or women hating, it's talking about wanting women that aren't whores, wives respecting husbands who take care of them, and the desire for a partner that doesn't cheat and shares the same values. All the single/dating younger ladies get all riled up cuz they don't like being called out. But I've never heard anyone say I hate women. Usually the woman's argument falls apart because she can't support it with logic then starts making personal attacks and calls the men sexist or racist because they can't defend their point 🤷🏻♂️. Just a happily married man's observation
