Our main reasons for fearing males having sex with males is that you really had to construct a more powerful social role to keep men in their place than you did to keep women in their place.

More quotes by Warren Farrell
When I lose my larger sense of supporting people to be their best, I lessen my contact with the God inside me.
Warren Farrell
Black men, Indian men, and gay men have all have something in common: They do not provide an economic security blanket for women.
Warren Farrell
The irony of primary parent laws is that on the one hand feminists were arguing for women's equal rights to jointly-created career assets that emanated from the male financial womb, but arguing against men's equal rights to jointly-created children that emanated from the woman's child-bearing womb.
Warren Farrell
When men in relationships have more money, we say they have the power. When women in relationships have more money, we say they are being used.
Warren Farrell
Letting men die is a money-saving device. Safety costs money as one safety official put it, 'When everything is hurry, hurry, hurry, when you start pressuring people and taking shortcuts, things can go wrong. And then people die.' No. And then men die.
Warren Farrell
Crime, especially crime involving money, reflects the gap between the expectation to provide and the ability to provide... If we really want men to commit crime as infrequently as women, we can start by not expecting men to provide for women more than we expect women to provide for men.
Warren Farrell
When women hold off from marrying men, we call it independence. When men hold off from marrying women, we call it fear of commitment.
Warren Farrell
Sometimes I have a feeling, when I look back on my life, that all I've been through has prepared me perfectly for just what I'm doing now.
Warren Farrell
The legal bias for special protection for women has begun to wreak havoc with the Constitution's guarantee of equal protection.
Warren Farrell
For me, the massiveness of what I don't know is one way I experience God. It creates in me a feeling of humility and a sense of gratitude.
Warren Farrell
If we hold the married man accountable for finances gone legally awry, then the married woman should be held accountable for children who go awry.
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
I'm not saying that men make better fathers than women do mothers.
Warren Farrell
Is a man's body at stake? Any time a man is asked to work to pay child support, he is using his body, his time, his life - not for nine months, but for a minimum of 18 to 21 years. So the motto of the feminist with integrity is, 'It's a woman's and man's right to choose because it is a woman's and man's body at stake.'
Warren Farrell
In fact, the socialization gives us the tools to fill our evolutionary roles. They are our building blocks.
Warren Farrell
Laws are made with such attention to protecting women that, if a man's constitutional rights conflict with a woman's protection, his rights disintegrate before her protection disintegrates.
Warren Farrell
A shared choice movement sees the fetus as the genes of a woman and the genes of a man the flesh of the woman, the flesh of the man the bone of a woman, the bone of a man the responsibility of a woman, the responsibility of a man the rights of a woman, the rights of a man. It desires a transition to equality.
Warren Farrell
My wife's income allowed me to do what I really loved. I realized that women's liberation is men's liberation, too.
Warren Farrell
Solutions: Seek an understanding of the other sex's best intent.
Warren Farrell
If my parents had made love a tenth of a second earlier or later, I wouldn't exist. What an enormous miracle, just being given life.
