More quotes by Warren Farrell
Because of the feminist perspective, we have gotten a view of the world that is distorted.
Warren Farrell
For me, the massiveness of what I don't know is one way I experience God. It creates in me a feeling of humility and a sense of gratitude.
Warren Farrell
The world increasingly allows girls to be whoever they wish to be - homemaker, mother, secretary, executive.
Warren Farrell
So we've moved from an era when women's biology was women's destiny to today, which is an era in which men's biology is men's destiny.
Warren Farrell
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.
Warren Farrell
Asking the legal system to resolve divorce is like asking a boxing coach to be our marriage counselor.
Warren Farrell
Both sexes allow men dentists inside our mouths, but, well, have you ever let a man who is a dental hygienist inside your mouth? The man must earn his way to our private places in a way not required of a woman--he must become the doctor or the dentist, or forget it.
Warren Farrell
I started to get very well recognized in the early seventies as the only man in the United States who had been elected three times to the board of NOW in New York City.

Women's greater social desirability and beauty power afford opportunities for creating both measurable and invisible income. While the opportunities are available to almost all women and some men, they are available in abundance to the genetic celebrity ... a woman so beautiful that men do more than look and talk--they follow her.
Warren Farrell
I found that women entrepreneurs earn 50% less than their male counterparts.
Warren Farrell
Since no one is always right, always being right is really a role model for his children feeling inadequate.
Warren Farrell
The male corporate model is built on a mans greater willingness to be a slave of sorts - especially once he has to provide for children.
Warren Farrell
If women really earned fifty-nine cents to the dollar for the same work as men, what business could compete effectively by hiring men at any level?
Warren Farrell
And with the rape, I was showing why the rape statistics are exaggerated, and saying that date rape was much more complex than the way feminists had portrayed it, as men oppressing women.
Warren Farrell
Women's genetic celebrity power magnifies men's protector instinct. It inspires the government-as-substitute-husband. Men's addiction to the genetic celebrity is either invisible or in the denial stage thus we either don't see it, or when confronted, deny it.
Warren Farrell
Empathy is at the core of family stability and love. I've never had a couple come to me and say, I want a divorce my partner understands me.
Warren Farrell
In the past we believed both sexes were born with original sin. Today, we have come to unconsciously believe in the original sin of boys, but the original innocence of girls.
Warren Farrell
Men make more money but have lower net worths.
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
The key to wealth is not what we earn. It is in what is spent on us.
