I'd say that's enough to have no particularly good male role models but, you also have to think of how marriage worked back then. the hunt goddess must be free because she represents the wild. marriage is like a chain, so naturally she who is a free spirit would not want to be chained.

So basically her nature as a wild goddess and the terrible male role models around her. I mean over the years it really would only get worse if she only associated with immortals. other gods spend time with mortals, Artemis would not outside her hunters and so would only see males from the view of gods who quite often were not particularly good people. goddess neither but at least she had a mother who never did anything  horrible that we know of and her aunt Hestia would probably be enough to restore faith in women.

So we get left with someone who didn't have a reason to like men and over the years hasn't tried to find reasons to. But hasn't she noticed the change over the years? Don't she realize now that most men are supporting women's rights?
