Quote by George Gilder
"The man has the gradulally sinking feeling that his role as provider, the definitive male activity form the primal days of the hunt through the industrial revolution and on into modern life, has been largely seized from him"
In Gilder's quote, he gives the argument that since the begining of time, males have always been dominant, until now. The Industrial Revolution gave women and children the advantage of getting the majority of jobs and left the men unemployed. Based on his tone, Gilder disagree's with what the industrial revolution has done to the traditional structure of society and expresses it in his quote.
