More quotes by 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
Dads in the family are even more important than women in the workplace. The workplace benefits from women, but the family needs dads.
Warren Farrell
A man cannot tell whether a woman is in love with him or his security blanket until she is financially and psychologically independent enough to leave. Until a woman has learned how to leave, even she cannot be sure she has learned to love.
Warren Farrell
Sexual harassment legislation in its present form makes all men unequal to all women.
Warren Farrell
The 'enduring theme' [in fiction] of male competition and female competition for the hero/survivor has taken us from the fittest surviving to the brink of no one surviving. Sex roles have gone from functional to dysfunctional almost overnight. This is why the enduring theme must be questioned now.
Warren Farrell
Visitation reflects the era of the absentee father parent time influences the re-emergence of the involved father. Visitation reflects the destruction of the family parent time influences the reconstruction of the family. Parent time influences an era that understands that as either parent loses, so lose the children.
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
With men, we blame the victim. We blame men because we have camouflaged men's victimization by teaching men to also be the victimizer. Men's victimizer status camouflages men's victim status.
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
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
Men have not stacked the decks against women.
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].
Warren Farrell
Only when a woman shares male risks can she really begin to understand men.
Warren Farrell
A man's primary fantasy is access to a variety of attractive women without the fear of rejection.
Warren Farrell
Now, since I'm a husband and father, discrimination against women isn't just political, it's personal.
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
In America and in most of the industrialized world, men are coming to be thought of by feminists in very much the same way that Jews were thought of by early Nazis. The comparison is overwhelmingly scary.
Warren Farrell
Empathy is at the core of family stability and love. I've never had a couple come to me and say, I want a divorce my partner understands me.
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
Nobody has said to men, It is OK if you want to be a full-time dad find a woman who will support you.
