I think some of the stigma against paternity leave comes from the fact a lot of men who take it do so concurrently with their partner. So it's regarded as the guy taking a vacation. Better for parents to take leave consecutively, so fathers learn to be deeply invested in early child care on their own. That might encourage more couples to make the choice of assigning the primary child care role to the father.
