People treat single moms like trash and single dads like some kind of a hero

Because the bar is so low for dads that the bare minimum of care is incredible but mums are just expected to be doing that work

Because single moms “made bad choices” and ended up “stuck with a kid” and it’s treated like a punishment that they deserve (as though another human being is a punishment).
And the implication is that a dad has every right to choose not to take care of his children and if he does, it’s treated like he’s going above and beyond and making a huge sacrifice
