Society is built around related females and their children, with the men wandering in and out at the edges. (I think that is where Western cultures are headed now.)
Sadly, I am afraid that you are correct in this portion of your statement. But I would contend that this isn't a good thing.
When the majority of children are born to single mothers, without fathers -- this tends to lead to all sorts of problems down the line. High crime; gangs of young men wandering the streets -- terrorizing everybody; young men growing up with no respect for themselves or for others........on and on.
Little boys need decent fathers to teach them how to be men. They need their mothers, too.
Dropping the father from the equation creates a situation similar to Mt. St. Helens. It's just a question of when the lid will blow off.
