The arch enemies of feminism in the 1960s and 70s weren't men, but the vast majority of contemporary women who wanted to retain their traditional benefits of being a wife and mother, protected and provided for. But, slowly, they succumbed to the propaganda, believing that they could have their cake, the female version, and eat it too. They trusted that earning their own money would simply add to their existing privilege.

Were they right..? Having a job doesn't make a woman any better looking, and most men don't even care how much you earn. However, it did ramp up the volume on hypergamy to 11. Very few men became 'good enough'. Meanwhile, men were being excluded by stealth from the workforce, a process which would itself be amplified by 'progressive' 'initiatives' such as EEO, AA, ESG, DEI and BS. For every woman that gets a job in place of a man, there's another man who loses his main trading card in the sexual economics marketplace, there's another man who may never be able to attract a woman and form a family. The good people who did this knew what they were doing, the theory was well enough known. https://assets.csom.umn.edu/assets/71503.pdf

There's no going back. It's like the thermodynamic condition of enthalpy. You can never get back to how things were. What is the current multiple of two incomes that you need, in order to service a mortgage, these days? And, you'd better not have kids, or that roof over your head is threatened. Unless you're a top earner. So, soon, it will only be the real big earners who will have access to women. Maybe harems will return. It would appear that the ladies have no problem with this, as long as there's enough money to go around. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygyny_threshold_model

Basically, the current situation of 'rotating temporary monogamy' on the carousel where she isn't yours, it's just your turn, indicates that a form of polygyny is already in our midst. This has occurred through female choice, female preference. The norm is always female preference.

But, they haven't won the game.

The cake has a soggy bottom. The icing is running. It's no longer palatable. And certainly not to the top 10% of men that you're all chasing, ladies. You may like to think of most men as losers.

But you can't all be winners, either.
