Sexual harassment in the workplace confuses rewards for performance with rewards for attractiveness and sexual availability.
Warren Farrell
Sexual harassment legislation in its present form makes all men unequal to all women.

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
Just as women needed the help of the law to enter the workplace in the 20th century, men will need the help of the law to love their children in the 21st century.

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.
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.

How can I call security a woman's primary fantasy if I am saying it is also her primary need? Because while her primary need is the security of a home and a family circle, her primary fantasy is that someone else will earn enough to pay for them. Hence the focus of 2 billion women on the latest royal wedding.

[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.

The key to wealth is not what we earn. It is in what is spent on us.
Warren Farrell
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.
Warren Farrell
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.

No movement calls [migrant workers] oppressed for providing money for women from whom they are receiving neither cooking nor cleaning for providing their wives with homes while they sleep on the ground.

I'm an awfully loyal friend. Once I've started a relationship with someone, it's like they are syrup and I'm a pancake. Their syrup gets into my pancake, so to speak.

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
Sexism is discounting the female experience of powerlessness the new sexism is discounting the male experience of powerlessness.
