Really? How many single unwed mothers are there in poverty today as compared to the 40's and 50's? Especially minorities?
Are you going to suggest that poverty among blacks and Hispanics is worse today than it was in the 1950s? Are you SERIOUSLY going to go there? Really?
For that matter, are you going to suggest that poverty is worse today for women than it was in the 1950s?
You can easily be proven wrong on all of this. Now, if you cherry-pick specific statistics about poor single parents, you can create the illusion that things have gotten worse, but no one has ever claimed that gender equality, alone among all historical cultural changes, produced no downside. It's just that on the whole, the upside greatly exceeds anything bad about it.
So prove it...
