If we looked at the reasons single mothers are single,would 'feminism' be a major causal factor statistically? I'd be surprised
But what feminist ideology says that families are better of without fathers except 70s radfems who also oppose sex lib?

This is just incredibly simplistic. We became more sexually free. Feminism & gay pride etc were part of this shift in culture.

But its not feminist to support sexual freedom. Most non-feminists & anti-feminists also support sexual freedom. I do.

Then there is another huge jump from 'women being able to choose to have sex' to'women not wanting fathers for their children'

to men not needing to make commitments, to men not taking off when their family hinders their selfish desires

Society could certainly be said to have become more selfish, more individualistic, less committed to marriage.

yes yes yes, but what ideologies and institutions caused this?

You're being way too simplistic. And the ppl you want to blame are dead. Feminism today presents different problems.

and unfortunately women enjoy the greatest freedom but haven't accepted the full responsibility, thanks to feminism

Feminism formed as part of this but to take that & blame it for prevalence of fatherless kids today is hugely misleading.

Most women aren't feminist. Most single mothers have no ideology around fathers being bad & doing everything alone being great

Libfems supported sexual liberation. And you won't find them saying families shouldn't have fathers. Too much conflation here.
