Male parents are also parents. We are no longer in the era of the “stay at home mom”.

No, but we are still in the era of mom has to physically annihilate her body in order to produce a child, and also in the era of mom requires actual physical recovery time before performing strenuous physical activity. I get the equity in offering dads extra leave to help take care of mom but it's disingenuous to suggest that they both have the same requirements.

It should be identical leave for both parents regardless. This is one reason women are paid less, they miss more time than men which delays their career progression.
