A friend of mine remarked that men seem to be ready for fatherhood before they are ready for marriage. In fact (while this is nowhere close to a proof), I have been thinking somewhat about fatherhood but not really about marriage.

I think it makes sense — fatherhood is an evolutionary instinct while marriage is a social one, and the former is much older and thus more deeply rooted.
