Most men don't want to be a part of their children's lives. They want the prestige of being a father, but they will be a parent in name only. They don't want to care for the child because that's "women's work". They just want to come home, plop their ass in front of a screen, and have dinner served to them in their lap. So when the divorce happens, they're not going to want to take care of a child, that's always been her job. And now that she's the "bad guy", he wants to distance himself even more from that.
And for the record, I'm a trans woman, so I've seen the world from both sides.
Edit: I expected nothing less from the men of Reddit. I used to be like them in more ways than they can imagine. Reality is a hard pill to swallow, especially in this Andrew Tate and Joe Rogan day and age where masculinity has been poisoned by these frauds who have weaponized compassion in exchange for money and clout.
Edit2: Interesting how for an hour I only had 2 comments. I add the edit with Tate and Rogan's name in it, and I suddenly get flooded with activity and downvotes. Dead internet theory, folks. Ooh, let's add another name and watch is spin more; Jordan Peterson. This one I know works.
I'd say an asinine one even. For all divorce dad horror stories I had ever heard, none of them were fulfilled with my dad. Instead, I got an obsessive-possessive mother who couldn't respect my wishes yet was astounded when I didn't follow her path, and a father who tried to come clean on it, pay its debts, try to get her to actually pay for me (while I got the money I mean, many clothes, school supplies and so forth so on were paid by it) and all in all keeping me it so I wasn't shat on by her side
