A few days ago I took my small kids to play in the local park on a Sunday afternoon. THere were 15 frum mothers and only 3 fathers. Is it denigrating to men to go to the park?

August 6, 2019 10:55 pm at 10:55 pm #1770842LightbriteParticipantAre you asking if it’s unmanly to parent your own children?
You know that you are a father, right?
August 6, 2019 10:55 pm at 10:55 pm #1770845Grey matterParticipantYes only woman should spend time with kids. Men changing diapers, going to parks and laughing to much with there kids is feminism.
August 6, 2019 10:57 pm at 10:57 pm #1770849NOYBParticipantNo, being a decent parent is not “unmanly”
August 7, 2019 1:07 am at 1:07 am #1770871👑RebYidd23ParticipantSometimes parents take their kids to the park because their kids need to go to the park, and sometimes parents just go to the park and the kids come along.

I’m still not sure I understand the concerns underlying the OP. Was there a concern that any of the 3 fathers might act inappropriately towards the 15 or so mothers at the Park? If not, what do you mean by “unmanly”?? Perhaps you need to get in touch with your feminine side. -
