Are men the gentle and nurturing sex? It's an obvious question I know..... but your dream does 'beg the question'.

I'll elaborate a little if you don't mind. When my daughter was born my wife suffered egregious post-partum depression, as if she had just given birth to her nemesis. Poor girl, in many ways she had. I was ‘mom’ for her middle-of-the-night feedings, for diaper changes - well, I had to play mom.
And nothing really changed to this day. I am the nurturer and she is relegated to more a pain in the ass - scratch that, say 'distant' - than a parent. Jealousy is the issue. They are both pretty ladies, but the daughter outshined the mother in almost every respect and the tension has been, at times, almost palpable.
Don’t know you, or if this relates in the least. Just made me think.

Men are yes probably as much as women it just depends on the individual. The fact is they are brought up not to show that side as much, big strong tough guys come to mind.
I've been married for 35 years and I feel we both have our strengths which is why it works., ( he has his faults which I tolerate )so sorry but not sure if your own example could relate to me this time.
Good try though to put us women down.
