It actually goes even deeper than that. The root problem is the denial of the order of creation of man as distinctively male and female each with unique nature and roles and with the purpose of drawing them together in marriage for the procreation of children. When women were driven out of the house to work in the market place the whole purpose of the family was destroyed.

Except the shift happened well before the massive introduction of women in the workforce. There was great pressure to legalize contraception in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

We have to realize that the change isn't new. It happened generations ago, and is only now reaching its peak. Which is also why I have some hope.

Popular culture is starting to turn on abortion. Movies and TV shows that 20 years ago would have shown the “Brave WOMAN having an abortion” now feature the same woman having the child, and often the man being involved in raising it. We are seeing some small shifts.

It isn't a sure thing, and Western civilization may fall soon anyway, but there is signs that the rebellion of the youth of tomorrow will not be to more hedonism, but more morality.
