Step up, and pass on the good vibes and knowledge

That one isn't a "yank obsession". Fathers are important, as are mothers, and any child growing up with only one of them is going to have things they miss-out on.

BTW I'm not passing any judgement on single sex couples adopting, or any other shape of loving family. I don't know any data on what the outcomes are like, but I'm sure the most important thing is the love and support the child gets.

    Your two paragraphs are diametrically opposed, and your second one is basically agreeing with the overall sentiment of the person you replied to - the percieved gender of the activity or role model doesn't matter, it's about the love and support shown for the child.
