First of all the point of the episode is about uncovering inconvenient truths in history, and then realizing that what the lie represents does more good than the inconvenient truth ever could.

Secondly Im not referring to the episodes message, Im referring to Ms Hoover specifically.

Third, women on the simpsons arent depicted like this anymore. Ever since Krabapple dumped Skinner, they stopped trying to send the message that women need a husband. Even for one off gags like this.

The only thing that might change today is the message that it's worth burying the truth to keep people happy.

You aren't meant to side with Ms Hoover in that scene. She's blaming that she's not married on feminism from an 8 year old girl. Lisa didn't do anything wrong.
