I suspect that her criteria as to what is an abusive husband/male partner is far lower than what it actually is-in real life. I have only given a brief glance at her video on Facebook (and she might have mentioned the following again), I remember the YouTube video about the delivery ward where she brought up an incident where a male partner/husband/father of newborn baby allegedly said to a midwife "but I thought you had to do it" in relation to changing the nappy of the newborn infant, which he is the father of. According to me,it was a fairly innocent comment from a likely nervous first time father but she used the alleged incident to be smarmy,smug and eye rolling
..
Also I think she does hate men, not just dislike them. Also while the media has highlighted the actual extent of or perhaps the epidemic of,male violence and abuse of women, it would appear to be the case that Bryony has decided to paint all men with the same brush.

Excellent comment. For all the knowledge about child psychology that she pretends to have, she does not know of the benefits of a father to a child. Also as you have stated there is a big difference between deliberately depriving a child of his or her biological/natural father in his life and having to not allow the child's father in the child's life out of necessity because the father is violent, abusive, neglectful or uncommitted.
The "research" that she did, in this whole"solo mother by choice" and so-called""journey"" was only ever what she wanted to hear,i.e all sunshine and rainbows-and nothing about children being resentful and/or distressed at being brought into the world, particularly by sperm donation.
Also I note her smug and smarmy facial expression and tone of voice (yet again) in her short video on Facebook and again it would appear to be her superiority complex. It has been mentioned a few times how it seems she thinks she is better than single mothers who had their children the normal way, I would see it as being the complete opposite (she is the one who is inferior), the vast majority of single mothers did not deliberately deprive their children of their fathers and often there are co-parenting arrangements. A single or solo mother could be divorced, widowed or never married.
I strongly suspect that in addition to her seeming hatred (or maybe just dislike of) men, she is terrified and disgusted of sexual intercourse and sexuality in general.The exception is probably her own body, she would appear to be in love with herself!!!

Could this be her having attachment issues/ambivalence with Oryn, related to the bizarre fact that Oryn,s father is a complete and utter stranger to her, who she has not even met!! This is where half of Oryn,s DNA comes from , after all.The baby is half stranger and his family tree/bloodline and half of her family tree/bloodline...
---
Maybe because the baby,s biological father is a complete stranger to her,whom half of Oryn's DNA comes from -an attachment issue from her as I suggested.
---
I would suggest that she does want to be around him as little as possible due to potential regret about bringing him into the world and the fact half his DNA is from a complete stranger.Attachment issues? She had thoughts
of doing away with him when he was a newborn.Having this baby was nothing like what she imagined it to be and I strongly suspect having a baby had a lot to do with being her mother's plan for her /influence on her too.
