I think perhaps you misunderstood my post, because my point was essentially what you're saying. People grow up being taught particular roles, and part of that is that males are not generally taught to play a role in child-rearing. It's only mildly different now than it was 50 years ago. Nonetheless, because it is so doesn't mean it should be so. This is the kind of thing that takes active work to combat social standards. These are the kinds of things that go back to the earliest moments of childhood, when parents buy their girl dolls and their boy trucks. There is a lot of unintentional conditioning that goes on which could be minimized by encouraging a wider variety of play.
