Warren Farrell
After a divorce, men's biggest fear is, typically, losing their children (women's is poverty).
Warren Farrell
I've gone from being quite wealthy, when I was defending women, to being quite poor defending men.
Warren Farrell
A lot of young men are frustrated and looking for someone to blame.
Warren Farrell
Women's genetic celebrity power magnifies men's protector instinct. It inspires the government-as-substitute-husband. Men's addiction to the genetic celebrity is either invisible or in the denial stage thus we either don't see it, or when confronted, deny it.
Warren Farrell
If an employer had to pay a man one dollar for the same work a woman could do for 59 cents, why would anyone hire a man?
Warren Farrell
Male-female fusion does not create women's rights. It creates a fusion of rights.
Warren Farrell
Sexual harassment in the workplace confuses rewards for performance with rewards for attractiveness and sexual availability.
Warren Farrell
Men are socialized to trust women until evidence to the contrary surfaces women are socialized to be suspicious of men until an individual man earns trust.
