It seems that for many of us men, we would rather read, or watch a video, in order to inform ourselves about things like pregnancy, childbirth, or fatherhood. We don’t tend to want to actually talk to other fathers and get their insight (yes, I know some of us do, but not nearly to the… Read more:

Express Your Inner Nerd with a NerdyShirt
