    Minalill there are men with babies on TV, but they're all in commercials

    and are all young and look like models (with the obligatory stubble). in actuality men LOVE their children! and looks? who sees them! later, when the kids are 5 or so, they look up to their fathers like they were Superman. that fades, but they *still* really like the old man. (except in memoirs and TV - it's "all happy families are alike", a boring story)
