"I can't believe this! You're disgusting. This is a public place, you pervert!" she said—until the guy, who posted about the episode on a website, fished out his ID.

I have also experienced the "gee, what a great dad" reaction just for doing the things that mothers do all the time, with hardly any recognition at all (hence the term "invisible work").

The number of times he took our son out and remarked later that he hed been the subject of admiration for simply looking after his own son, and going to the shops with him was ridiculous. It seems to be assumed that men cannot have paternal instincts.<br /><br />Similarly, he feels uncomfortable at parent and toddler groups as he is the only father there. Why should he feel stigmatised just because he happens to have a different set of genitals to me and the other mothers in the area? Just ridiculous, and utterly indefensible.J.

I would bring them to playgroups, swimming, and other activities at a local community centre where there were always many moms with their little ones. I was generally shunned, given dirty looks and was not spoken to by a group moms who regularly engaged my wife when she was about. I was made to feel like a creep for being a man with kids. <br /><br />My wife wanted to confront them about it one day and I begged her not to - it would have just make things worse.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2461044845034715253.post-55394606020487381862010-12-06T04:28:06.438+10:002010-12-06T04:28:06.438+10:00I think this is just dreadful, Mr Areni, and I see...I think this is just dreadful, Mr Areni, and I see where yiou are coming from entirely. My husband recently was working on his car when a little girl fell over on roller skates in the road. He felt he COULD NOT approach her and see if she was okay, because of possible accusations against him about why he had approached the little girl. he came running into the house yelling for ME to go and see if she was okay. <br /><br />None of this does our society (ies) any favours. It is crazy. <br /><br />I was largely brought up by my father as my mother worked away alot. I am now 38 years old. Recently at a family reunion, i had an aunt comment that 'they' [the family] always 'expected' something to come out about my father because it 'isn't natural' for a father to bring up a daughter alone. <br /><br />I was, and am sickened by those attitudes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2461044845034715253.post-12770247590772734832010-12-06T02:46:24.154+10:002010-12-06T02:46:24.154+10:00Read up on men's rights and misandry.
