Quick Write: Pregnant Men in Okada's "Future Plan #2" and Coltrane's "Fathering: Paradoxes, Contradicitons, and Dilemmas"

The photo of the two pregnant men best relates to the paradox found in section "The Emergence of modern fathering". The chapter implies that a modern father of today is "at least adept to changing a diapers as changing tires" (Coltrane) I belive that this is in the right because a father is one who can work and change a tire (manly thing) but is also one who can provide that figure for his offspring, changing a diaper. As also found withen the same paragraph "No longer limited to being proctetors and providers, fathers were pictured on television and magazines as intimetly involved in his family life." best relates to the photograph as men being the one who now feel that bond. A strong maternal feeling that normally a mother would.
