In the us. This varies across states but the stats remain overwhelmingly, Men are less likely to petition for custody, but when they do. Are more likely to get custody of children.

Once a restraning order or or dv charges are filed against a male in a custody dispute, they are more likely in the majority of states to get partial or full custody. According to a Supreme judicial court gender bias study.
