Men and women are equal in their capacity for evil and goodness. Mothers, being but women who reproduce, can be as evil as men. Mothers have killed their children, sold them into slavery, and more mundanely abused and neglected them. Some mothers of course, are good people, like some men. Reproduction doesn't eliminate evil; sometimes it causes it. Studies galore have also found fathers as good as mothers in nurturing. Gotta go watch my movie now.
