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
After a divorce, men's biggest fear is, typically, losing their children (women's is poverty).
Warren Farrell
Men rarely worry about using or being used because all relationships work that way. A man perceives himself as owning and being owned by a woman. Use is a dirty word only when theres an imbalance in the relationship.
Warren Farrell
So long as you create laws that define women as victims, as creatures that demand protection, that need bodyguards, you are going to perpetuate the very worst of our sexist past.
Warren Farrell
I'm not saying that men make better fathers than women do mothers.
Warren Farrell
Let's face it: men do a lot of things in the workplace that women just don't do.
Warren Farrell
When a dad admits he is wrong or asks for help, he allows the child to see him- or herself as adequate even when she or he is also wrong. It encourages children to make suggestions and, therefore, to discover their creativity because they have a chance of making a contribution.
