if they assume he's the inferior parent, why do the men win custody almost every fucking time they try, whereas the woman involved gets the kid dumped on her, completely, with no child support orders unless she fights for them, anytime the guy doesn't want anything to do with the kid he knocked her up with?

I know where you're getting this from. Just so you know, it comes from a deliberately misleading interpretation of "winning custody", where if a man seeks any amount of custody, and is granted anything more than nothing at all, it's 'counted' by those spreading this propaganda, a "win". This is as opposed to what any reasonable person would call a "win", which is when one gets at least as much custody as one seeks. That's like calling me a "lottery winner" because I won $5 after spending $1000 on tickets, lol.

If the mother of my child is abusive and I try to get full custody, but the judge gives me every other week supervised visitation, that is obviously not a "win", but it is, by the definition of the misandrists who propagated that particular piece of bullshit around.

Like i said, the issue varys wildly by state or court.

Although part of the reason why men who ask for custody get it more than 50% of the time is that very often they know (or believe) they don't have a chance and so don't fight.

Men winning custody? Surely you jest
