Correct. Treating women like children, as if they so get a pass because of a diminished capacity is degrading and breeds disrespect of women as a group. But feminism has never been about equality and respect. It is about special treatment and goodies. Just like every other leftist movement.
It's also a nice revenue generator for the state. Many states collect child support payments if the mother is on public assistance. They don't particulary care what the facts are; what's important is to find some man to extort money from. What's more, they're empowered by the Congress to reach across state lines to get their dough.
