It's one of the factors that has led to this current situation, yes. Women learned, during the 20th century, that letting their financial well-being rest entirely on one man was not as safe as it once was. It always amuses me that men on FR absolutely refuse to accept one iota of blame for today's world. It's allllll the women. Men were wonderful. Perfect. Angels! And these damn women were ungrateful, and now here we are.
NO ONE said men were perfect angels. Absolutely no one. The imaginary hobgoblins of the men who claim such innocence is a favorite of the globalists who push Feminism. Fathers knew what men were and much of the institutions women claim oppressed them were put in place to protect them, which is why the nuclear family was targeted.
And exactly what blame do men have for "today's world"? Enough didn't die to create it? Enough didn't die defending it ? Men didn't vote socialist enough? Men created and supported almost every single thing in "today's world". Which of those should they not have done?

They learned relying on one man was not safe in the 20th century? So "letting their financial well-being rest entirely on one man" was safe enough in the 7th century, the 15th? the 18th?
Women didn't suddenly learn about such risk. They learned they could vote to have The State (which was funded by men) provide for them financially. They chose Socialism under the pretext of Feminism and here we are. Once "liberated" from marriage, they were free to practice hypergamy and have someone else pay for it.
"It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers-out of unorthodoxy." - George Orwell '1984'
Except Feminism didn't free women from the oppression they were told they were under, it freed men from the oppression they didn't know they were under. It took a while but once enough men saw it, it couldn't be unseen. It was buried under decades of social conditioning, outright propaganda, and institutional indoctrination.
Men started walking away because it is so far gone that the only winning move is not to play. As some women are now left to realize that The State can't be their daddy husband, especially States that are $138 trillion in debt (which was a goal of the globalists), they are surprised when the same men they reviled and marginalized want nothing to do with them. Too late, no refunds.
