1) In what context would a focus on sexual monogamy and a traditional marriage have been a sign of an "embittered feminist"? Neither has been a focus of any of the major American feminist movements.
2) When have the Ivy-educated elite not been also the uptight fundamentalists of America, at least as it pertains to everyone else's choices?
It's all just the usual garbage of rich people trying to elevate some social signifier more accessible to them than others as a moral virtue.
