Book •
George Gilder's "Sexual Suicide" (1973) presents a controversial argument linking human progress to procreation within a traditional nuclear family structure.
Gilder contends that women's roles should primarily focus on motherhood, excluding them from the workforce.
He bases this on his belief that women's extended biological processes naturally orient them towards the future, while men require the competitive marketplace to prepare for fatherhood.
The book's central theme is the perceived threat to societal progress posed by feminism and alternative family structures.
Gilder's work sparked significant controversy and remains a subject of debate.
