Don't even get me started over the fawning all over him when he holds our daughter so I can get a bathroom break.  "Oh what a great daddy!"  Ma'am, he's holding her for a total of 15 minutes of this 6 hour flight, I'm taking care of her the other 5 hours and 45 minutes in addition to helping him throughout.  He's a good guy but let's cut it with the handing out medals for taking care of his own child for a total of 4.17% of the flight.  [/quote]

Man here. I'm not surprised by this but it's not limited to air travel. I work weird hours so I'm usually out with my DDs (2 and 4) on weekday afternoons, when it's pretty rare to see fathers out. The amount of accommodations I get is amazing. People let us jump the line at the grocery store; tell me what a good job I'm doing. I even had the post office re-open their doors at 4:59pm so we could enter and mail a package.

When I was in my 20s, I noticed young women my age got lots of accommodations, so I guess it evens out in the end.[/quote]
