How common is it for men to desire children?

There’s an accepted notion, that women, at some point in their life, will have a strong desire for kids (not that women who don’t want kids are somehow abnormal). But I haven’t heard much expressed desire by men to have kids. I know people start families and of course both parents are excited, but I’ve never heard a guy just come out and say, “I can’t wait to start a family!”, or “I can’t wait to have my own little girl!”.

Maybe it’s because I don’t know a lot of older men, who are more likely to have this desire? Do you know men like this?
