Seven women begging for one man

Happen to come across this verse.

In that day seven women will take hold of one man and say, "We will eat our own food and provide our own clothes; only let us be called by your name. Take away our disgrace!" (Isaiah 4:1)

Search for commentary online. It seems to be also prophesying the end times stuff - most probably the tribulation times. Wah, the male population has a sharp decline due to war and women becomes desperate for a male to marry to for "status". [A woman's sense of worth is linked to marriage, home, and family more so than is a man's. - quoted] I don't know whether to say how "fortunate" male was at that time or how "frightening" male was when so many were prophesied to die in wars. I can't help but picture the terrible scenes of war during the tribulation periods and picture the desperateness the women at that time now.
