It is pretty scary becoming a parent and some guys freak. It happens. God, how I know it happens. Not that that excuses his behavior but just by way of trying to understand why he did it.

Let's see, there have been untold billions of women, faced with the eminent arrival of a child in their lives, either by giving birth or by adoption. For women it is probably more of an eek, scary freakout moment, because, well, in the vast amount of cases, their life is going to probably change the most, more so than men. They freak - it happens for us too.
Yet, I have yet to have known of one that tried to put the make on the male nurses in the room, and reached at and grabbed a strange male nurse by the penis, groped it and had anyone try to excuse it as , "Please understand she is just stressed" by becoming a mother.
Excuses for bad behavior are just that - lame excuses for bad behavior. And when anyone indulges in bad behavior, using stress and "freaking out", it still shows what their underlying personality is.
