Men generally are afraid of a wife who has more understanding than themselves.

Most men are very attached to the idea of being male, and usually experience a lot of fear and insecurity around the idea of being a man. Most women are very identified with their gender, and also experience a tremendous amount of fear and insecurity.

The only men who aren't in fear of women's reactions are usually men who aren't born or who are dead.

As societies continue to loosen their standards regarding what is appropriate female and male behavior, I think we are going to realize we have not only underestimated women, but also men.

I think, as women, we have to stop being scared to be the women we want to be and we have to raise our daughters to be the women they want to be - not the women we think they should be.

The word that I constantly hear out of women is 'fear.' It's almost like a background melody. Women have excellent degrees and experience, but we are afraid we aren't good enough because we have such high expectations.

All societies on the verge of death are masculine. A society can survive with only one man; no society will survive a shortage of women.

Many societies have educated their male children on the simple device of teaching them not to be women.

We are the women men warned us about.

Men tend to try to struggle to be more rational and reduce things to simplicity more and are more impatient with ambiguity than women are.
