Great point about all those brawny professions industrial civilization still depends on for its very existence! It goes to show that the gender egalitarian ideology is almost wholly focused on office jobs. That just might be because the class that is most obsessed with said ideology tend to be the PMC office drones and paper pushers.
On the economic part, I'm afraid you're right. As of right now, PMC office jobs confer social status and kids going to college are told to pursue those jobs if they desire high social status. When things change enough to where being religiously-observant and family-focused gets higher status in the community than being office fauna then yes we'll start to see the younger generations gravitate more toward that lifestyle, and thus a more traditional mode of living.
