The same is true for the fact that a man has a penis. So?! Biology has little to do with the safety and care issues, it has everything to do with a continuation of the false understand that one gender is some how more important to the child. The MOST important gender to the child is the gender that takes care of, regardless of which gender that be.
Read Viv's post, this is the true reason why. I was merely pointing out how biologically women are chosen to be closer parents. If there is a clear difference in who is best parent then go with best parent, but in close situations, where both parents are capable and loving, go with the Mother.
