According to opinions i ve been reading in other threads in this forum, it seems that people here seem to assume WOMEN are responsible for raising kids for the most part. They might have a job or work few hours but they expect them to do the most part of the raising. They assume its gonna be like that. I get it, this is a highly conservative forum, and those are for the traditional values of family, etc.
But if you think like that, can you justify it? Is it from a biological point of view? Purely social? Why?
I'm one of the few liberal members of this highly (aka extremist) conservative forum, but I pretty much do think that women tend to more of the child rearing than men. I think women tend to gravitate more to children than men probably due to their biology.

You mean is a biological instinct instead of a social construct?
IDK, nature seemed to have made it that way. Why is it the female in the animal kingdom taking care of the offspring for the most part? Could it be that the mother is the one that produces the milk and makes the "nest" so to speak?

In many species (other than mammals) the "father" cares exclusively for the young or helps care for the young. One can not compare humans to other animals, the animal kingdom is too diverse.
Science has proven for a long time that the so called "maternal instict" is a social construct.
Yes, we can bear children in our bellys and have the abilty to produce milk.
But, other than that, we are not naturally better at raising children than men
No science didn't prove that. That's BS. What social construct tells the female animal to do the rearing for the most part? Humans are animals too in case you were wondering.

Humans ARE animals. It's VERY rare that the male animal cares for the offspring exclusively. ALL animals, including humans, the male takes on a role and has responsibilities but the main one is the female when it comes to raising offspring.

I think so. Women have more nurturing instincts.
