it's crazy doing enough emotional work that i can clearly feel the part of me that *wants to be a father*, that *wants to love children and teach them things* i don't feel like i hear other men my age talking about this. maybe to not scare off women?

This is true for both men and women actually: if a single woman is looking for a partner to have kids with she’s “baby-crazy”, she’ll come dragging things like “”expectations”” and “”responsibilities””, that’s no fun...

But we already have a stereotype of women as boring “ball and chain” types. It’s unappealing but expected. A *man* who wants a stable loving family? Must be either unmanly or a closet conservative. (To be clear I don’t approve of these stereotypes.)
