For example workplace harrasment by women towards males like touching or groping being ignored because the victim is male but if it where to happen to a woman by a male the male would be fired

No, it's the same way here. People invent these imaginary fears. Same with OC about children in general. Nobody gives a shit or is looking at dads.

Like sure, maybe you hit the jackpot and find the crazy but the vast majority of parents so not give a shit in the states.

The consequences in the US are so severe it's not worth the risk. Just an accusation can ruin someone's life.
