The Government as Substitute Husband did for women what labor unions still have not accomplished for men. And men pay dues for labor unions the taxpayer pays the dues for feminism. Feminism and government soon become taxpayer-supported women's unions.

Crime, especially crime involving money, reflects the gap between the expectation to provide and the ability to provide... If we really want men to commit crime as infrequently as women, we can start by not expecting men to provide for women more than we expect women to provide for men.
Warren Farrell

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.

I've gone from being quite wealthy, when I was defending women, to being quite poor defending men.

Men may be way behind in creating choices for themselves, but have actually been quiet supporters of the choices women want for themselves.

We have entered 'The Era of the Three-Option Woman and the No-Option Man.'

When we hear men are the greater victims of crime, we tend to say, 'Well, it's men hurting other men.' When we hear that blacks are the greater victims, we consider it racist to say, 'Well, it's blacks hurting blacks.' The victim is a victim no matter who the perpetrator was.

Men are likely to be quite generous, especially financially.

Letting men die is a money-saving device. Safety costs money as one safety official put it, 'When everything is hurry, hurry, hurry, when you start pressuring people and taking shortcuts, things can go wrong. And then people die.' No. And then men die.

Unless a woman asks men out (the first time) as often as men ask her out, then the assertion 'He asked me out, therefore he pays' is just a double jeopardy of the male role: he must not only do the asking, he must pay extra for risking extra rejection.

Women and men look at their life, and women say, What do I need? Do I need more money, or do I need more time? And women are intelligent enough to say, I need more time. And so, women lead balanced lives men should be learning from women.

All societies that have survived based on their ability to prepare their sons to be disposable, in war and at work - and therefore as dads.

Since no one is always right, always being right is really a role model for his children feeling inadequate.

Sometimes I have a feeling, when I look back on my life, that all I've been through has prepared me perfectly for just what I'm doing now.

Men’s greatest weakness is their facade of strength, and women’s greatest strength is their facade of weakness.

A person working 45 hours per week averages 44% more income than someone working 40 hours per week. That's 44% more income for 13% more time.

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.

Because of the feminist perspective, we have gotten a view of the world that is distorted.

In the case of a man and a woman [accused of commiting a crime together], both will often agree to the man taking the rap despite the man being more likely to receive a longer sentence and more likely to be raped in prison. If blacks were agreeing to do that for whites, the black community would be smart enough to call that 'learned subservience.'

The average full-time working male works more than a full-time working female.

But when feminists suggest that God might be a She without suggesting that the Devil might also be female, they must be opposed.
