No matter how bad a man wants to become a father, it's up to some woman to decide to provide a child for him. Traditionally in our society, men are obligated to pay for dating and are expected to afford to provide for the family as women seek this economic stability in men, and will often dismiss a lesser paid man as a potential mate. Perhaps when most women are paying for everything or contributing equally while first dating, and continued into the relationship or when raising a family after marriage, then economic equalities will become more important.

Of course women don't have the same standing as men, they don't have the same hardware either. But…Read More they do have considerably more responsibility in our society. They are the ones who have the responsibilty and the honor of bringing new life into the world. And caring for and nurturing the babies and small children. Men can't do this, no matter how hard they try to act like women. Can you imagine a fella giving birth? Believe me, a fella couldn't take it. Can you imagine a fella breast feeding a baby? You have got to be kidding! Can you just imagine the jacked-up mess we'd be in if men had to do all this by themselves? We'd be extinct by now that's for sure!
