Do gay men make better dads? How close are children born through surrogacy to their parents? We get the latest research from Prof Susan Golombok, author of Modern Families. Should vigilante groups should be catching paedophiles online - are they helping the police or getting in the way? Are feminism and equalism the same thing? Tim Samuels, presenter of Men's Hour argues for a Minister for Men; and the curious 1930's friendship between middle-aged 'spinster' Edith Olivier and the young artist Rex Whistler.
