Warren Farrell
So we've moved from an era when women's biology was women's destiny to today, which is an era in which men's biology is men's destiny.
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
The teenage female has less demand to perform and more resources to attract love. Her body and mind are more genetic gifts.
Warren Farrell
Sexual harassment legislation in its present form makes all men unequal to all women.
Warren Farrell
Feminists have confused opportunity with outcome.
Warren Farrell
He and she become selective at different points she can be selective when he wants his primary fantasy - sex he can be selective when she wants her primary fantasy - commitment.
Warren Farrell
I don't think there's anything that is a greater area of discrimination against women today than the fact that nowhere in the world is there a female role model in team sports that more than half of a general audience would recognize
Warren Farrell
