I have trouble taking articles seriously which start with an almost literal, "The most important issue is 'What about the men?'".

Ah, the root cause of the decline of the family is of course, men earning less. Buuurrrrnnn. I'm not exactly sure what he means by this. Is he saying that society is trying to devalue the 'choices' at the top rungs of the economic ladder, or that it should?The demolition of blue-collar male earning power has hurt family formation among less-educated Americans.
The triumph of feminism was that it gave people so many more choices. But having choices means making choices.
The challenge for society, meanwhile, is to push some of those choices down below the top rungs of the economic ladder.
