Over 95% of custody agreements are settled outside of court. When a case is settled by a judge, the father is more likely than not to get at least 50% custody IF he asks for it.
Men get the custody they want.
It’s a simple fact, spanning across all cultures, generations, regions, etc., that women spend more time caring for children than men do.
When there’s a legal relationship (marriage), women still do more childcare, and when there isn’t a legal relationship, women do MUCH more childcare.
Don’t blame hardworking mothers for the choices of lazy, walkaway fathers.
When you talk to a divorce lawyer, they explain to you your options, the chance of success, and how much its going to cost. If any of it becomes contested and you end up litigating, you're starting off at $10K.
The reason so many settle outside of court is because dads know they are going to lose anyways and they don't have 10s of thousands of dollars to fight the system.
^ That's exactly what happened with my uncle. Unless you're rolling in money, it's hard to fight the system. Thanks to that, he goes into a depression every Father's Day. By the time he finally was able to get in contact with his daughter, her mother had poisoned her mind so much that it had basically destroyed any chance of a relationship. She had moved her over many state lines, and didn't give her the option of calling her dad until she was roughly 15 years old. (So ... 10+ years after the divorce)

I've never heard the 95% statistic before. Since the devil's advocate argument you're putting forth is predicated entirely on this number, can you cite a source?
I just spent a while looking for the actual peer-reviewed article, however I wasn’t able to find it yet, but I’ll get back to you. I found lots of articles that cited the same “95%” stat, here is one of them:
I had a lot of good discussions (with solid links) but they were in my comment history from r/GenderCritical, and Reddit has just erased it and all our post history, as if it never happened.
Because God forbid women advocate for women and refuse to call a man in lipstick a female.
