I had 12 weeks paid. But I think I got some weird looks for taking it all as a man. Oh well, anyone who thinks it’s a vacation has never had a kid and expecting men to get right back to work is after a baby just puts more pressure and work on new moms.

Depends on country. In US, at my IPG agency, it’s 12 weeks for birthing parent, 6 for non-birthing parent. That’s not up to modern standards and they should really increase it.
