Just curious about other father discrimination experiences

I have a 2 year old daughter, and I'm kinda wondering what's the experience in ways that other fathers out there have experienced some type of discrimination.
Besides the usual family court law poopoo we have do deal with...
I have such a hard time taking my daughter out and about.  Most every place I go to have no place at all for a father to change a diaper. I typically have to have someone stand outside a woman's restroom, and guard the door while I go in and use the changing table. There's been times I've even had to take my daughter out to the car to change her. Every womans bathroom I've seen has a place to change diapers, but rarely does a mans room have a changing table. I've even encountered some government buildings like this.
I'm thinking of starting an online database of 'father friendly' places.

Many places have "family rooms"  but your are right... Another year and she will be potty trained!
