I fail to see any specific trait that the child can only exclusively learn from either the male or single parent. As the article said, there are plenty of other sources that can be used as acceptable role models. I, in all honesty, cannot put a finger upon a specific skill or trait that I acquired during my upbringing that I can attribute as being from one parent or the other as a direct result of their gender.
