This crisis of willingly absent and/or multi-familial fatherhood

.. and extended adolescence among men coincidental? Perhaps not. Perhaps there is a common thread. The late Robert Jordan intuits this in his Wheel of Time novels when he notes that the greatest feats of magic were when male and female worked them together. We need look no further than in the procreative design of humanity (and most of the animal kingdom). It has occurred to me before how the ingenuity of homosexual artists and fashion designers may well draw from the richness of both genders. Which makes it relevant to point out that both genders are to be celebrated for the genius of their respective natures, rather than pretending that there are no differences, or engineering society to make it so.
