More quotes by Warren Farrell

When a government requires a man to support a child he was tricked into creating, that government subsidizes fraud. No. It is worse than that: It subsidizes the woman using a man's body for 18-21 years without his consent.

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 world increasingly allows girls to be whoever they wish to be - homemaker, mother, secretary, executive.
Warren Farrell
Sexual harassment legislation feels unfair to men because if they sued over an ethnic joke, or over a woman discussing pornography or asking them out, they'd be laughed out of the company.
Warren Farrell
[This is] the basis of the Innocent Woman Defense the Innocent Woman Principle:: Women are believed when they say they are innocent of violence and most easily doubted when they say they are guilty of violence.
Warren Farrell
You could make a case that women addicted men to their sexuality and then withdrew their sexuality until we provided them with a source of income.
Warren Farrell
Our choice of partners is one of the clearest statements about our choice of values.
Warren Farrell
It is important for a father who feels pushed away [by the mom] to say, in effect, When you do that, I feel unwanted as a father, or I feel my rough-housing is not bad parenting it's my contribution to helping our child take risks. Women cannot hear what men do not say.
Warren Farrell
Financial analysts make a lot more than accountants.
Warren Farrell
Sexism is discounting the female experience of powerlessness the new sexism is discounting the male experience of powerlessness.
Warren Farrell
Feminism justified female victim power by convincing the world that we lived in a sexist, male-dominated, and patriarchal world.
