Whitney Wolfe Herd Quotes

I'm not pretending I can give advice to every single person or every single couple for every situation; I'm making the point that we are not going to get to equality in the workforce before we get to equality in the home. Not going to happen.

Success is hard in general for most women. We now have such busy lives, and we're told we can do everything - you know, we can have the relationship and the marriage and the kids and the career.

It's one thing to reject the idea that it's a man's job to bring home all the bacon; it's another the 500th time your wife reaches for the check at dinner.

It is, I think, harder for women. I haven't quite figured it out, and all of my women friends haven't figured it out -how the hell do you do this? How do you work and have families?

Most women are not programmed to prefer a great career to a great man and a family. They feel they were sold a bill of goods at college and by the media.

Women are choosing to stay single rather than marry men who can't step up and provide.

So many women are financially dependent on men. So why can't men be dependent on women? I'm totally okay with it.

People ask why there are so few female artists who succeed. It's because women are not ready to sacrifice as much as men. Women want a man, they want a family, they want to have children, they want to be loved, and to be an artist. And they can't; it's impossible.

The key to success for any woman who wants to have a really serious career and a family is to marry a guy who is going to take at least half the responsibility for the house and kids - and sometimes more than half.

I don't think guys inherently don't want to clean. I think the roles are most definitely changing, but I think in a good relationship, it's never been defined as 'a lady does this and a guy does this.' I think, in most working, healthy relationships, everybody does a little bit of everything.

Women are a strange thing. Like watches, houses, and cars, you really only need one at any moment in your life (French men disagree).

If I can do it, men can certainly do it. It's interesting now to talk about equality in the home and involving men in household chores such that women don't have to over extend themselves doing both her job and coming home and doing all the household chores. So, that kind of sharing the load is something that I have seen in my family growing up.

The gender stereotypes introduced in childhood are reinforced throughout our lives and become self-fulfilling prophesies. Most leadership positions are held by men, so women don't expect to achieve them, and that becomes one of the reasons they don't.

Eventually women will learn there's no such thing as freedom. Their husbands are just as fastened to the deck as they are. Men get onto a treadmill and never got off.

I feel career women should avoid getting married.

My first husband is a lovely, lovely man, but he always viewed my job as a hobby, and there came a time where I resented that.

My husband and I had a very pragmatic agreement right from the start: whoever earns more works full time. So we switched the classic roles.

Women, you need to understand something. Men are not as dumb as you think they are.

There is nothing wrong being a house husband, and I do believe there is something right about it.

A lot of times, women are pigeonholed.

I do think women avoid power. Power assumes responsibility and accountability, and I think many, many women want to have it both ways.

What man could afford to pay for all the things a wife does, when she's a cook, a mistress, a chauffeur, a nurse, a baby-sitter? But because of this, I feel women ought to have equal rights, equal Social Security, equal opportunities for education, an equal chance to establish credit.

Society never made the preposterous demand that a man should think as much about his own qualifications for making a charming girl happy as he thinks of hers for making himself happy.

I know not which lives more unnatural lives, obeying husbands, or commanding wives.

The future woman must have a life work and economic independence. She must have the right of motherhood at her own discretion.
