definitions earning males
I define power as control over ones life. A balanced life is far superior to the male definition of power: earning money someone else spends while he dies sooner.
suicide jobs loss
Even a 30-year-old man whose wife dies is eleven times more likely to commit suicide than a 30-year-old man whose wife is living. At age 30, when men can bury themselves in their jobs and are physically and financially attractive to women, the loss of the one woman a man loves is so devastating it is often not softened even by the opportunities for many women... in brief, it is the loss of love that devastates men.
sex men today
When only men could register to vote, we required only men to register for the draft. Today both sexes can vote, but only men must register for the draft.
home royal-wedding circles
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.
sex men example

mom children dad
In a sense, in the area of child care, children's relationships with parents' working has come full circle. We have gone from the mom-and-pop store (or mom-and-pop farm), with its integration of child care and work, to children-at-home and dad-at-work; to the mom-plus-daddy working at home, with its integration of childcare and work again. From mom-and-pop back to mom-and-pop.
gay men black
Black men, Indian men, and gay men have all have something in common: They do not provide an economic security blanket for women.
men thinking promise
If women had to promise to provide for a man for a lifetime before he removed his veil and showed her his smile, would we think of this as a system of female privilege?
men weakness facade
The weakness of men is the facade of strength; the strength of women is the facade of weakness.
commitment independence marrying
When women hold off from marrying men, we call it independence. When men hold off from marrying women, we call it fear of commitment.
feelings looks sometimes
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 frustrated blame
A lot of young men are frustrated and looking for someone to blame.

It is important that a woman’s “noes” be respected and her “yeses” be respected.
