    I guess being a mother is considered an important life achievement, while being a father is not.

      I think it’s more that, for some, becoming a parent is their only life accomplishment, so “reader engagement” is literally, “hey, overlap these two circles, or the middle won’t buy our crap.”

      You do get to be a father in news articles. Mainly when they talk about you being deceased though.
