Yeah, my partner's a family lawyer, and the number of stories I've heard... the possessive rage, born of a long long history of men asserting their rights over women's reproductive rights, comes to bear in the lawyer's office, and there's a silent button you can call for security. It's a very risky profession, statistically.

And every time I hear about a man killing children, I wince and die a little inside, because I know in 95% of cases he will be an angry jilted father using his kids as disposable possessions to get back at his female ex.

I don't know about other countries, but thanks to feminism, in Australia, men and women in practice have equal rights of access to children, and this works out, as long as the bio-father is willing, which he isn't always, and he isn't an abusive fuck, which isn't that uncommon. Thank god the conservative previous government's MRA-fuelled law that saw convicted paedophile fathers given access to their children FOR THE MENZ RIGHTS, was overturned.

If a child is conceived the traditional way, then the bio-father is considered legally to have an equal stake & responsibility in the child's life, no matter what he or anyone else thinks of that. (Is this fair or feminist? It certainly cuts both ways.) If you want to conceive a baby that the bio-father does not have rights over, then you'd better do it with a vial and syringe

And don't even get me started on the men who call up Legal Aid and demand that their partner or ex be somehow forcibly restrained from exercising will over their own damn bodies by terminating an unwanted pregnancy. It's called patriarchy for a reason. This is why Republicans.
