16. No, message sent is men are a "legend" for doing something women and trans people do every day.

It reinforces how low the bar is for everyone else with a penis when it comes to parenting their daughters and that cross-dressing is an extraordinary sacrifice for a cis man because he loves his child and not a totally normal thing that trans people do every day.

Is he a good father? Yes. Is "man is good father" front page news? It shouldn't be. That's my point.
