"Given that there was that era of girl group music and it's still very popular, but I think if you looked at the chart from that time you would see many more men on it. Because the industry, they were catering to young girls. I mean, that's what they thought their audience was"

This quote by Lesley Gore talks to the gender variation in the music market throughout the era of woman group music. Gore suggests that while girl group music was popular, the charts were dominated by male artists. This is since the industry was catering to girls, and they assumed that was their primary audience. This suggests that the market was not taking into consideration the potential male audience, and was instead focusing solely on the female group. This quote highlights the gender inequality that existed in the music industry throughout this time, and how it was not dealing with both genders equally. It likewise talks to the value of recognizing and dealing with all audiences, regardless of gender, in order to produce a more equitable and inclusive market.
