Pop culture painting dads as irresponsible parents comes from the idea that women are natural caregivers while men are just boys who work. It’s a cultural bias that still affects legislation and custody rulings, and why it’s a goddamn fight to get changing table in men’s public washrooms.
Funny drunk dad meme is just the scum on the surface of a shitty lake.
That’s putting it a bit abrasively, but there’s a nugget of truth there.
An anecdote: I saw some (drug?) commercial where the wife orders pizza because the Dad’s a bumbling idiot for even attempting to use the kitchen. Everything about the way it was presented just screamed… ‘50s sexism,’ basically?
Yes,because dad cool, mom uncool.
Funny sexism from the 50s.
It goes deeper than that, too.

Yes because dad criminal, mom not criminal
Sweet sexism.
::: NOT EVERTHING IS FUCKING SEXISM, THE MEME WAS ABOUT DRUNK DADS :::
Yes, it perpetuates the harmful stereotype that only men can have addiction issues. Gender stereotypes are harmful to all genders.
