Great point. You're absolutely right about there being this sense of need to "protect" one's daughter. Thanks for your feedback, Magdalena. Great point.

I think that part of the reason we, as a society, expect having a daughter to change one's views on women more than just knowing awesome women has a lot to do with the paternalistic view that society takes towards father-daughter relationships. There's some serious baggage regarding fathers having to protect daughters, and particularly their purity and innocence, that dates back thousands of years. We have this idea that a man shouldn't just respect his daughter, but also shield her from everything in the world. It's a nice idea and all, but as you point out, problematic when we're not asking men to treat ALL women with respect. Very nice article.
