Most people don't get that fathers can be as good at parenting as mothers. It's sexist. It's wrong. I've never been incompetent, and I'll give my life just to make sure that my daughter is happy.
Every time I see an "Aww shucks" anti father commercial on TV, I cringe. When I see the, "Oh Dad, you're suck a fucking clueless idiot" it pisses me off because it reinforces a stereotype. If we had commercials on TV featuring a group of all but one white friends and they all laugh at their black friend for eating Church's Chicken and watermelon, Al Sharpton would literally explode. The thing is, most societies have been patriarchal for a long time, and some still are, which has lead to an overcorrection. To me, there's no greater insult to a father than saying that fathers don't know what they're doing.
