I commend you for finding this material and putting it out there. It gives a needed historical perspective. It also shows that the main problems are women's nature and men's nature. Feminism isn't the only culprit. Indeed, feminism was invented by . . . women! Not flattering. As to men, well, we get both barrels all the time about our defects. Perhaps what is new is that men are having to find ways to regain their cultural, political, familial, and sexual power. This requires strategy and a theory base. You see that all over the place. Much of it is good. Some not so much. Respectfully submitted.
But you miss a few key reasons why men refuse to marry. First, the legal system which is feminized and against men and boys. The legal marriages of today are a poor contract for men. Women are paid to commit adultery
And or divorce, with no consequences. Secondly is the religion of feminism, which defines men as the enemy. Even many married women are feminists and intern destroy their own marriages commonly. This is common even in churches. I have seen it. Churches also don’t hold women accountable for marriage problems but crucify men for them. It’s one of the larger reasons men are abandoning the church, we don’t need it, as it’s useless to us. Thirdly, 8/10 divorces are filed by women, half of which due to adultery. Again common in churches. So a bad investment for men again. For men to return to marriage the structure has to change. For many like myself, once we see foreign women, we can’t unsee them.
I very much look forward to your analysis on these three things. I’m curious as to how the church and men in general should respond to these problems? I look forward to your post.
"Paul told men that they should provide for their families and that women should teach younger women how to manage the home and love their husbands."
I am pleased to see that you describe this passage accurately. Contrary to opinion in many quarters of the Church today, Paul did not teach, or even imply, that older women should teach, or even lead, "Bible studies" for women. Their bailiwick was limited, as you state.

All valid points. Which I will come back to in a future post.
