Gotta love the nonsense feminism is feeding todays society, telling it that it isnt womans job to raise children. Yep, lets defy the animal kingdom, our biology, thousands years of civilization and every human and biological instinct to make some flannel wearing freak happy we listened to their lack of logical thinking.
It's a parents job to raise their children, both male and female. Get with the program, you're stuck in the 1950s.

This answers shows if anything feminism is attempting to stop those things.
How is feminism trying to stop fathers from getting hurt in custody situations? Some feminists are trying to prevent men from access to paternity tests. They actually think it is acceptable for men to pay money to support a child that a woman may have had with another man.

What a load of rubbish. Are you so bitter and hateful that you have to make up lies to berate women now? And then you wonder why women don't like you? Have a look in the mirror one day.

I don't think you know what feminists are. A true feminist will encourage equity and parity in both parenting and marriage, so if a divorce does happen the father will have had a greater role in his children's upbringing and lives, and he wants custody. Unlike in the past, where many dads barely knew their kids' schedules and interests and hardly took part in childrearing, and in cases of divorce were happy to sign a check and let his ex deal with all that.

Feminism is trying to stop fathers from getting hurt in custody situations by attempting to lessen society's hold on this 'women need to raise children', 'it's womans job to raise children', 'having a vagina makes you the (better) caregiver', and such.

By lessening the hold on those notions they give way for the father role to be seen as equally important and for men to be seen as needed to raise children. With such a perception it's far less likely that gals would by default be given custody because they have a vagina and thus presumed to be the better caregiver.

Some feminists are trying to mandate paternity tests. So yeah it evens out to me sort of like some men rape women and some men don't.

That's a reason? There is nothing common about sense.
