People having so much smoke for single mothers is a true testament to how people hate women so much because there is absolutely no reason to chastise the parent that stayed.
People having so much to say about single moms but nothing to say for the men who left their family behind is a great example of how people constantly blame women for the actions of men and see men being negligent as inevitable.
It’s not okay that men neglecting their children is so normalized to the point where it has terms such as “daddy issues” and “dead beat.”

Why is it so difficult to hold men accountable for their actions and hold them to—not even a “higher standard—but A standard at all 💀
Men neglecting their children is so common that men get praised for just fucking being there. They don’t even have to do shit. Just have to show up. That’s wild to me how acceptable that is.
