Its simple. In today's family law environment, women own everything and men have no legal power within the marriage without her ascent.

That ubiquity of disrespect in heterosexual relationships produces a cultural shift that expands outside the marriage, into general culture. Notice how fathers were represented on television and fiction before and immediately after Reagan enacted no-fault divorce in 1969 as governor of California.
