Hello argument, I am counterpoint. I did not have a positive male role model and it may have set me back a bit but I still found my way to a happy marriage and positive parenthood.

I did not have a positive male role model...

Not even someone from outside your immediate family?

My dad was alright, but traveled a ton. Some of my friends fathers were also positive role models who showed how it could work when they were home all the time.
