Heard from NPR radio today: although women count for 51% of US population, 60% of people under the poverty line are women. 1/3 of households headed by women are under the poverty line. The main reason of this femininity of poverty ? women paid the major portion of ever increasing childcare cost.
Funny Statistics. Funny Numbers. Don't go to cocktail parties without them.

Men ought to be ashamed of themselves!
It just proves how much our foundation, the family unit, has been neglected and splintered.
Some men will not be men and some women will not let men be men.
I agree with both John and Wildcat. We have a terrible problem with men enjoying the sex but ignoring the end result...leaving many women to raise children and earn a living on their own. Being a real man means taking responsibility for your actions, not just thumping your chest and carving notches into the bedpost.
