Are you really trying to argue this?

Women have breasts that often times contain milk right after giving birth which she can use to feed the baby. A guy can't feed an infant without something else's milk or without formulae. Women are naturally more suited to being the primary caretaker of a child. Evolution made it that way.

From the moment of fertilization, a woman carries the baby to term, gives birth, feeds the baby naturally and takes care of the child while the male can do anything he wants. A guy can't do any that except provide food for the mother and place for her stay with the child. 

I'm not saying that women are better suited to raise kids in every situation. Some women can be horrible parents. I'm also not saying that guys can't be good parents or that they can't raise a kid by themselves. 

Is that it? Only pre birth and as a baby stuff? What about the actual raising?

You said a woman is better at raising from infant to adult. If milk is all she can offer then what benefit is that to anything other than an infant? In fact if she is still breastfeeding up until they are an adult then that's not really a good thing.

You also said the kid would be better off if raised by a woman than a man. Now I highly doubt a man would just let his baby starve, and whether other milk/formula is as good as natural breast milk is a whole nother topic. But the raise part specifically suggests a whole lot more than feeding as a baby. So yeah, how is a woman actually better at raising a child to adulthood?

That's exactly what I said. Just breast milk. So less than a year? Aren't most so called civilized western people grossed out by breastfeeding anyway?

Again, women give birth, that doesn't mean it's in their destiny to become mothers and that's the only thing that makes them worthy. It's no biological duty, it's not natural, it's not the way it is. We made it so.
