The men are not getting the stipend. And yeah they suck for not being fathers. Both are faithless.

Why is it shameful for women, but not for men? Why is single parenthood shameful at all?

bearing in mind it's a patriarchal, sexist society in the book, the women don't have many options.

the lack of contraceptive can't be sexist. It would be like calling monogamous wolves sexist.
