I think there is an ambivalent phenomenon at work with men who nowadays abide to feminism. On one hand you have those men actually benefiting from all the so called advance in rights and equality, but really those new modern "mindsets". I can totally see that from a cynical point of view as a guy. Yeah sure be an independant woman, who works for me, who adds to this sexually available pool of women, is alone, hence emotionally more depressed and easier to corrupt. Literally you can exploit feminism so much as a competent man, while you plant the idea that is to liberate you. Marriage was actually pushed to the church by women so they could get the graal of monogamous relationship. Men really didn't ever want that, while today the narrative as insane as it appears historically, makes it sound like marriage is for men to emprison women.
If you don't want to commit to a relationship in your life and just "use" women, this is a dreamworld for a man, you can easily have a bodycount of hundreds while it would have been a lot more complicated back then in a more traditional society, as most of the women you would be attracted to were married already.
On the other hand, there might be a much deeper and darker reason for men becoming more passive in a way, than they used to be. We could overthrow any regime tomorrow morning if we so wish, even if only by purely physical strengh but men won't do it in the current state. A few intellectuals theorized a lot of this came from the atrocities of WWI, like men watching for the first time, with the advent of filming, their own kind living and dying like rats by millions in tranches. Realizing that maybe all this isn't worth anymore to fight for. It's some sort of "we ve built everything in the world around you, we reached a point anything is good enough but the stakes are so high to protect it, we are sick of doing this and we are giving it away". Whatever happens let's see if you can do no worse than us.
On a lighter note, i agree with your other points generally, so not much to add. Even in my personal familial experiences, the stay home wives who got taken care off are by a landslide the happiest indivduals i know. If i was a woman i would do anything to get that, it's the best life you can think of, it's revovling around caring for your home, seeing your childs growing, having your own hobbies, etc.. instead of beeing the slave of some random boss. I mean is this a joke? You are living the dream off the grid, somebody in her right mind wouldn't want that offered on a plate while most of the difficult things are dealt with by the significant other. We are totally ready to do that for the right woman, no question about it. Except of course the "male feminists"...witness the malice here.
