あらすじ・解説
Yes, there’s a dad on Mother Bodies! Paul Morgan-Bentley, author of The Equal Parent, chats to Rosie Taylor about his experience of becoming a gay dad via surrogacy and how that opened his eyes to gender inequalities in parenthood.
Paul chats about the research debunking the idea that only women are biologically primed to care for babies, his ongoing struggle to find gender-neutral baby changing places - and what equal parenting looks like when there aren’t any cultural pressures for one parent to do more.

Journalist Rosie Taylor is on a mission to find out why we so often fail to give mothers the care and support they need after birth and in the months and years afterwards.
On the Mother Bodies podcast, she speaks to fascinating guests about how politics, prejudices and systemic problems are affecting the postnatal care we receive – and what we can do to improve parents’ lives for the better.
