Girls raised by single mothers are more likely to have more severe paternal abandonment issues because their fathers really have effectively abandoned them.
About the gender-model parent- BOTH parents effect the child's view of gender norms and self-worth, by both their absence and presence. A douche-y father has just as much affect on a daughter as a supportive mother, and vice versa.
Indeed, people do need to understand that not all men are jerks. Unfortunately, not everyone is able or willing to move past childhood issues.
