More quotes by 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].

Men are likely to be quite generous, especially financially.

The sexist perception that violence by anyone against only women is anti-woman while violence by a woman against only men is just generic violence creates a political demand for laws that are even more protective of women.
Warren Farrell
All women's issues are to some degree men's issues and all men's issues are to some degree women's issues because when either sex wins unilaterally both sexes lose.

Humans tend to start the process of change by acknowledging themselves. Thus blacks asserted black pride and 'black is beautiful' women declared 'I am woman, I am strong' men are saying 'I am man, I am okay.' After a quarter of a century of male bashing, that's not a bad start.

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.

Feminists have confused opportunity with outcome.

The more the father is involved, the more easily the child makes open, receptive, and trusting contact with new people in its life.

Falling in love is biologically natural sustaining love is biologically un-natural. Sustaining love requires a learned discipline. The discipline of love. The discipline of understanding our partner. (I've never heard someone say I want a divorce - my partner understands me.)

Ive always been motivated to stop people from doing dysfunctional things.

If a female employee is offended, a boss would like her to tell him, not sue him.
Warren Farrell
Men are socialized to trust women until evidence to the contrary surfaces women are socialized to be suspicious of men until an individual man earns trust.
Warren Farrell
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.
Warren Farrell
I'm not saying that men make better fathers than women do mothers.
Warren Farrell
Together, we came to understand how we beg men to express feelings, but then when men do express feelings, we call it sexism, male chauvinism, or backlash.
