Look around, and you start to see stories about the PTA dads who are co-chairing the Spring Fair (which marks a change from the days when the national PTA was known as the National Congress of Mothers.) Or stories about the Male Biological Clock. Or Feminism for Men. The Boston Globe ran a piece last year on Gen X Dads with the headline: "Luxury vacations, fast-track careers...
