More quotes by Warren Farrell
A shared choice movement sees the fetus as the genes of a woman and the genes of a man the flesh of the woman, the flesh of the man the bone of a woman, the bone of a man the responsibility of a woman, the responsibility of a man the rights of a woman, the rights of a man. It desires a transition to equality.

Our love for children is so immediate in part because we feel their powerlessness immediately conversely, part of the way we deny our love for men is by denying men's powerlessness. Too often we have confused love for men with respect for them, especially for their power to take care of us - which is really just love for ourselves.
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.

The problem with every judgment of sexual behavior is that it is made by people who aren't being stimulated as they are making the judgment. A jury that sees a woman in a sterile courtroom, asks her what she wanted, and then assumes that anything else she did was the responsibility of the man is insulting not only the woman but the power of sex.
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
Sexism is discounting the female experience of powerlessness the new sexism is discounting the male experience of powerlessness.
Warren Farrell
Men are fair, and they have learned not to personalize anger - they can disagree with you and argue to the bone, but afterward they still consider you a nice person with whom the underlying human relationship need not be altered.
Warren Farrell
Every movement has radicals. But the important thing is that the radicals are not the leaders.
Warren Farrell
Male makeup is men's titles, status and paying for dates. Makeup is what both sexes use to bridge the gap between the power they have and the power they'd like to have. Both male and female makeup are compensations for feelings of powerlessness.
Warren Farrell
Male-female fusion does not create women's rights. It creates a fusion of rights.
Warren Farrell
It is ironic that a movement that made its reputation championing the irrelevance of biological differences when those differences were to most women's disadvantage immediately returned to biological determinism when those differences were to the most women's advantage.

The legal bias for special protection for women has begun to wreak havoc with the Constitution's guarantee of equal protection.
Warren Farrell
I would suggest that just as women who make it in the world of business need male business mentors, perhaps men who make it in the world of emotions will need female emotional mentors.

Nobody has said to men, It is OK if you want to be a full-time dad find a woman who will support you.

Is there discrimination against women? Yes. There's no denying that the old boys' network is alive and well. But there's also discrimination against men.
