[quote]This is not about "rights". It should be about finding ways to make a smooth transition to 50-50 if that is desired, working WITH a strong maternal bond and understanding, and APPRECIATING the chemistry that goes along with that [/quote]
So that we are clear here, I am not an advocate for the presumption of 50/50 physical.
Your argument has flaws and is not helping your case at all (and, really, there's not much you can do with this crowd because to them it isn't about the child, but about the father's rights). I know that hormone that you are talking about. It is to insure the survival of the human species. It's more prevalent in the women who choose to breastfeed. And, no, men don't have this particular hormone released, but then it isn't their bodies that is producing the food for the newborn.
And it doesn't last more than a few months. You are acting like it lasts to who knows when. It doesn't.
