Criticism of Sexist Views on Fatherhood

TV host Ella has criticized the sexist view of men who "only want to have children but don't want to be fathers." For her, being a responsible father means getting involved in all tasks, from bathing the baby to changing diapers, something she has highlighted and publicly celebrated in her husband, Mario Fonseca. She has expressed her annoyance at situations where the man shirks the emotional and physical burden of parenting, stating that "giving children to a sexist man is to condemn oneself to live unhappily." The well-known presenter Amanda Isabel Díaz has been direct about the difference between a man who just "helps" and one who truly exercises fatherhood with responsibility. Recently, drawing on her own experience as a mother and her observations of society, she has expressed key points on this topic. Amanda maintains that a father is not "helping" the mother when he cares for his child; he is simply fulfilling his role.
