A woman with organizing skills can run a construction company without ever picking up a hammer and nail.
Warren Farrell
Our focus on discrimination against women during the past 30 years has blinded us to opportunities for women.
Warren Farrell
Until recently, the question was 'Why can't a woman be more like a man?' It should have been changed to 'Why can't both sexes be more like the best parts of each other?' Instead, the pendulum swung to the 1960s feminist lapel button Adam Was a First Draft. True enough. So are we all.
Warren Farrell
When we suggest that men are at the top because men discriminate, we miss the point. Men are at the top of the work hierarchy because work has been primarily men's responsibility.
Warren Farrell
It evolved from my experience in the fifties, growing up during the McCarthy era, and hearing a lot of assumptions that America was wonderful and Communism was terrible.
Warren Farrell
Just as the Depression left a generation of dads feeling they never had enough money, so father deprivation is leaving a generation of sons and daughters with different psychic wounds.

The key to wealth is not what we earn. It is in what is spent on us.
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.
Warren Farrell
When a man is able to connect with his feelings, he is able to care more.
Warren Farrell
Now, since I'm a husband and father, discrimination against women isn't just political, it's personal.
Warren Farrell
Our love for children is so immediate in part because we feel their powerlessness immediately conversely, part of the way we deny our love for men is by denying men's powerlessness. Too often we have confused love for men with respect for them, especially for their power to take care of us - which is really just love for ourselves.
Warren Farrell
Asking the legal system to resolve divorce is like asking a boxing coach to be our marriage counselor.
Warren Farrell
Employers are not prohibited from practicing sex discrimination in hiring and promoting employees.
Warren Farrell
After a divorce, men's biggest fear is, typically, losing their children (women's is poverty).
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
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.
Warren Farrell
There are 25 differences in the way women and men behave in the workplace. These 25 differences lead to men receiving higher pay and women having better lives or at least more balanced lives.
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.
