> Other studies have shown that men’s testosterone levels drop when holding an infant, or even a baby doll, and that the level goes up again after divorce. I see this as a significant component. Both of my grandfathers had little to no relationship with their children. Some of it due to the fact that they spent more than half of their waking hours outside - usually working. My father and generally men of his generation participated somewhat in child rearing, but not to a large extent. Meanwhile I'm here changing diapers, bathing our child, playing with them etc. and this is also, gradually, becoming the norm.
