“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.”
“After years of research, I discovered 25 differences in the work-life choices of men and women. All 25 lead to men earning more money, but to women having better lives.”
“I definitely agree with choices for women, but I do not agree with choices for women when they eliminate choices for men. Rather, I think that the sexes need to make choices that lead to the maximum amount of win-win for both sexes.”
“The women themselves say they're far more likely to care about flexibility. The men say, 'I'm far more likely to care about money.'”
“I don't think there's anything that is a greater area of discrimination against women today than the fact that nowhere in the world is there a female role model in team sports that more than half of a general audience would recognize.”
“Men’s greatest weakness is their facade of strength, and women’s greatest strength is their facade of weakness.”
“It certainly has not been in my self-interest to defend men.”
“Nobody really believes in equality anyway.”
“Is there discrimination against women? Yes. There's no denying that the old boys' network is alive and well. But there's also discrimination against men.”
“Nobody has said to men, 'It is OK if you want to be a full-time dad; find a woman who will support you.'”

“A 2001 survey of business owners with MBAs conducted by the Rochester Institute of Technology found that money was the primary motivator for only 29% of women, versus 76% of men. Women prioritized flexibility, fulfillment, autonomy and safety.”
“The key to wealth is not what we earn. It is in what is spent on us.”
“Men have not stacked the decks against women.”
“Feminism justified female 'victim power' by convincing the world that we lived in a sexist, male-dominated, and patriarchal world.”
“If you are a woman, you might feel torn between logical agreement and emotional resistance. Why? It seems like a simpler solution to blame men for the pay gap than to engineer your own bridge to higher pay.”
“There are 80 jobs in which women earn more than men - positions like financial analyst, speech-language pathologist, radiation therapist, library worker, biological technician, motion picture projectionist.”
“If a man belittles a woman, it could become a lawsuit. If women belittle men, it's a Hallmark card.”
“We take men's obligation to earn money, and when they do it well, we blame them for having power and being oppressors. And when they don't do it all, women just don't marry men who are reading 'I'm Okay, You're Okay' in the unemployment line.”
“A man perceives himself as owning and being owned by a woman.”
