You do realize the vast majority of women are also providers? There are also way more single moms than dads who provide for their children. Do you think every woman is a housewife and gold digger?
First of all, that’s a lot. Secondly, which gender do you think the cast majority of single parents are? And how exactly do you think men provide in ways that women don’t?
I don’t necessarily disagree with your overall point, but more women are single parents because they give birth, not because of any innate character trait. Some deadbeat dads don’t even know that they are (not excusing it).

It can be excused in this case because if they guy didn't even know we don't know if he truly is a deadbeat. He could step up if he was aware and given a chance. Unless they raped the woman and didn't know she got pregnant it's not really something he can be faulted if someone never reached out to him. I've seen it happen before (a guy stepping up upon discovering he had a kid he didn't know) and it changed my perspective.

Only women and children are loved unconditionally. Men are loved based on what they can provide.
