Are you saying your saying your family courts are sexist?

No way did anyone see that coming.

You know... at some point, you should try to stop it somewhere between your brain and your mouth (or in this case, your keyboard).

No. Perhaps you should read for content rather than impose your own agenda?

I say what I mean and mean what I say. Trying to inject a message I'm not propounding is rude and will cause this discussion to hit the shitter very quickly, compadre.

I learned in church abstinence gah, is better. I learned in school, that there are ways to have fun without making a single mother. Women that date me surely are drunk and alcohol messes up with birthcontrol pills.

It happens that here in America, in contested custody, women are awarded custody far more often than men. I'm not sure that more women than men want custody, simply that they get it. If you've got numbers, I'm amenable to correction.

Come to Pennsylvania. You'll quickly see that this is not the case. More or less, it's whoever has the most money for the better lawyer, gets the kids. Regardless of how good or bad of a parent they are.

I can attest to that, personally.

I don't understand why you insist I can't say single mom or single dad but I can say single parent.
So you're not a single mom, you're a single parent? What's the difference?
Single meaning you're no longer with the child's father, mom meaning you're a woman. I don't understand what the distinction is.
Okay, let me rephrase my question then - why are there so many single parents that are women?

I'm a single mom. My two kids have a single dad. All the broken families I know have a single mom and a single dad. Some have more than one single dad. More than one single mom. None were made by female masturbation. 
Now, if you want to know why more mommas have custody, then I can talk. It could be for many factors including more mommas want to keep the kids, and the courts unfairly give preference to moms. I disagree, hence, I accepted my kids' single dad's offer for 50/50.

I don't know. Are they actually sexist or do they just realize that women generally tend to be better caregivers to children?

Same with the wage gap. Are companies actually sexist, or do men just generally tend to be more committed and focused on career, thus earning them better pay?

Maybe, maybe not. 

I'm not one who is quick to call sexism or any other type of ism.

RE: What's the point in dating single mothers?
Obviously no one is living in my part of the world where PA is the 5th most corrupt state (in the nation) as far as courts go.

There's also several factors to consider but that's getting completely off topic.

Back to your regularly scheduled troll-fest.
