What if the man you were dating were also the father of a girl?"
A mom needs to exercise great caution with her children. She shouldn't expose them to men who could sexually abuse the children. The odds of a woman abusing her boyfriend's children are near zero, so it doesn't work both ways. And the fact that a man has a daughter shouldn't give him a free pass for access to a woman's daughter.
I know a couple of female friends who experienced abuse by the step-dad/boyfriend. What are the statistics on this? And, I assume it is under-reported.
