I know I've had people in the past tell me that 'taught' helplessness is a better term, but I still think 'learned' helplessness has a function within certain conditions.
For example, the 'learned' helplessness of a cis man who may not have had their cis father directly teaching them the ways to rely upon their (perceived) feminine partner. They watched what was done, and they learned from it.
It was not something they were taught but something they recognised as possible.
