The idea of a "maternal instinct" — the notion that mothers are wired for nurturing and care—is a familiar one in our culture. And it has a flipside, a corollary— what you might call “paternal aloofness.” It's the idea that men just aren't meant to care for babies, that we have more, you know, manly things to do.
