More quotes by Warren Farrell

Warren Farrell
In our society, the sound of men complaining is like nails on a chalkboard.
Warren Farrell
After a divorce, men's biggest fear is, typically, losing their children (women's is poverty).

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.

By starving our children of men, we have made them more vulnerable to the very abuse we are trying to prevent.
Warren Farrell
We always look at the 'Fortune ,' and we say, men in power, but we don't look at the glass cellar as opposed to the glass ceiling and say, men also are the homeless, men are also the ones that are the garbage collectors. Men are also the ones dying in construction sites that aren't properly supervised for safety hazards.
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.

We would not think of allowing a man to determine a woman's life merely because a fetus he helped create was in her womb then why would we allow a woman to determine a man's life merely because a fetus he helped create is in her womb?
Warren Farrell
When we look at the pay of men and women who do work equal hours, two discoveries are quite astonishing: --When women and men work less than 40 hours a week, the women earn more than the men --When men and women work more than 40, the men earn more than the women.

By the 1970s, the American woman was being called 'liberated' or 'superwoman' while the American man was being called 'baby killer' if he fought in Vietnam, 'traitor' if he protested, or 'apathetic' if he did neither. Even men who came home paraplegics were literally spit on.
Warren Farrell
Humans tend to start the process of change by acknowledging themselves. Thus blacks asserted black pride and 'black is beautiful' women declared 'I am woman, I am strong' men are saying 'I am man, I am okay.' After a quarter of a century of male bashing, that's not a bad start.
Warren Farrell
Male-female fusion does not create women's rights. It creates a fusion of rights.
Warren Farrell
I started to get very well recognized in the early seventies as the only man in the United States who had been elected three times to the board of NOW in New York City.
Warren Farrell
The key to wealth is not what we earn. It is in what is spent on us.
Warren Farrell

Warren Farrell
Solutions: Seek an understanding of the other sex's best intent.
Warren Farrell
Why do we resist giving help to homeless men? In part because we don't understand how our pressure on men to support families often forces men to take transient jobs that are but a step away from homelessness (the death-of-a-salesman jobs, the migrant worker jobs...) and in part because we respond differently to men who fail [than women who fail].
