When my son is hungry or in need of comfort and my wife isn't around I DON'T breastfeed him or snuggle him to my bosom. I give him a snack and I try to make him laugh and giggle because I have no inherent bodily capacity as a male to provide for his needs as my wife so immediately does.

Enrico, it is true you can't breastfeed your son, but you CAN and SHOULD hold him, hug him, etc., because body contact is hugely important, even for men....  So don't see yourself short.
