More quotes by Warren Farrell
Financial analysts make a lot more than accountants.
Warren Farrell
The only men who aren't in fear of women's reactions are usually men who aren't born or who are dead.
Warren Farrell
So long as you create laws that define women as victims, as creatures that demand protection, that need bodyguards, you are going to perpetuate the very worst of our sexist past.
Warren Farrell
Our choice of partners is one of the clearest statements about our choice of values.
Warren Farrell
Our love for children is so immediate in part because we feel their powerlessness immediately conversely, part of the way we deny our love for men is by denying men's powerlessness. Too often we have confused love for men with respect for them, especially for their power to take care of us - which is really just love for ourselves.
Warren Farrell
Men are not only women's unpaid bodyguards, they actually pay to be a woman's bodyguard.
Warren Farrell
Since no one is always right, always being right is really a role model for his children feeling inadequate.
Warren Farrell
Women's liberation and the male midlife crisis were the same search--for personal fulfillment, common values, mutual respect, love. But while women's liberation was thought of as promoting identity, the male midlife crisis was thought of as an identity crisis.
Warren Farrell
Women's greater social desirability and beauty power afford opportunities for creating both measurable and invisible income. While the opportunities are available to almost all women and some men, they are available in abundance to the genetic celebrity ... a woman so beautiful that men do more than look and talk--they follow her.
Warren Farrell
Just as the Depression left a generation of dads feeling they never had enough money, so father deprivation is leaving a generation of sons and daughters with different psychic wounds.
Warren Farrell
Men make more money but have lower net worths.
Warren Farrell
Just as women needed the help of the law to enter the workplace in the 20th century, men will need the help of the law to love their children in the 21st century.
Warren Farrell
There are 80 jobs in which women earn more than men - positions like financial analyst, speech-language pathologist, radiation therapist, library worker, biological technician, motion picture projectionist.
Warren Farrell
For the first time in human history the psychology that is a prerequisite for intimacy has become the psychology that is a prerequisite for species survival.
Warren Farrell
Boys with a failure to launch are invisible to most girls. With poor social skills, the boys feel anger at their fear of being rejected and self-loathing at their inability to compete.
Warren Farrell
But when feminists suggest that God might be a She without suggesting that the Devil might also be female, they must be opposed.
Warren Farrell
Men give the same lines to different women for the same reason women wear the same perfume for different men we all try the things that work.
Warren Farrell
How can I call security a woman's primary fantasy if I am saying it is also her primary need? Because while her primary need is the security of a home and a family circle, her primary fantasy is that someone else will earn enough to pay for them. Hence the focus of 2 billion women on the latest royal wedding.
Warren Farrell
Sexual harassment legislation feels unfair to men because if they sued over an ethnic joke, or over a woman discussing pornography or asking them out, they'd be laughed out of the company.
Warren Farrell
The world increasingly allows girls to be whoever they wish to be - homemaker, mother, secretary, executive.
