-In my experience, Male violence results in statistics (disparity in strength). Female violence are nearly always un-reported. (how do you report emotional scaring and small bruises) How certain are politicians really that the bulk of family abuse is male generated?
Age of man-shame.

-Some few males are pedofiles.(sp?) All males are considered suspect around young females, including fathers just hugging there daughters
Age of man-shame.

-Disgruntled/jilted Ex-wife claims ex-husband is a kiddie fiddler. Instant guilt results in banning from child visitation rights untill the husband proves himself innocent.
Age of man shame.

-Courts do still favour woman in custody battles.
Age of man shame.

-Domestic purposes benefit undercuts Males biological need to provide, government welfare replaces the need for men beyond sperm providing.
-Age of man-shame.

I think all these undermine a Fathers role in a family which I believe will result in a community filled with ever more disfunctional children. Its all about playing the odds and having both a father and mother in the same home is the ideal enviroment for children to be raised in.

In New Zealand, 50% of primary school children now no longer have there fathers living at home with them.
Age of man shame. (For this one we have a damn good reason to be ashamed IMHO)
