Yeah, I'm repulsed when I hear about willing fathers not being given the custody they deserve.
Also, it makes sense that breast cancer would get more funding as according to cancer research it's the most common cancer in the UK. I don't think it's a case of testicular cancer getting less funding because men are the victims and not women, just because of the amount of sufferers. Also, how can you even find out how much funding they get, is there a website or something (not that I'm disputing what you said, it would just be helpful in a project at school I'm studying:))
Also, I think women and children get priority is because of the bond between them tends to be stronger between that of the child and father. Children get priority for obvious reasons, and because they need a parent women are seen as natural carers, as they've carried that baby for 9 months and made a connection that the father hasn't. Of course that isn't always the case, but it's probably why things are seen that way.
Google search the health care part, it's what I done for quite some time. It should be easy to find the information.
That may be, and I don't have a problem with it, although males still get the short end of the stick. I don't know about the child and mother bond thing though. I think if a father is dedicated and wants to be the best father he can be, then his bond with his child is equally as strong.
In that case, they should take priority over families, not women and children. They should change it to "Atleast let the children and their carers go". That seems more fair, don't you think?
Yeah, that is fair, but a lot of the time life isn't fair. I mean, that women could abuse her kids, but because she's the mother it's assumed she's caring:/ But on the other side of the spectrum, men are constantly given advantages based purely on their gender, and that isn't fair either.
Agreed, which makes it just mean my original point, that we all have our own hardships for each gender that the other doesn't have to worry about much.
