This is a talk given my Dr. Warren Farrel at the Cato (www.cato.org) institute on Tuesday, February 1, 2005 entitled:

Why Men Earn More
The Startling Truth Behind the Pay Gapand What Women Can Do About It

A presentation from his book of the same name
http://www.amazon.com/Why-Men-Earn-More-Startling/dp/0814472109/ref=sr_1_1?ie...

Cato offers the real video stream of the lecture I have captured here on this events page:

I have reproduced this material without permission under fair use. The aim is to present information on how womens own choices lead to the wage gap which thus stems from their own liberty. I make no profit from these video views and all intellectual material is

Synopsis:
Warren Farrell, the only man to have been elected three times to the National Organization for Womens New York board of directors, is the author of such books as The Myth of Male Power and Why Men Are the Way They Are. In his new book, he argues that women earn less than men on average not because they are discriminated against, but because they have made lifestyle choices that affect their ability to earn. Why Men Earn More argues that although discrimination sometimes plays a part, both men and women unconsciously make trade-offs that affect how much they earn. Farrell clearly defines the 25 different workplace choices that affect incomes--including putting in more hours at work, taking riskier jobs or more hazardous assignments, being willing to change location, and training for technical jobs that involve less people contact--and provides readers with specific, research-supported ways for women to earn higher pay.

  • that blonde is so full of shit

  • That blond lady in the front row seems very indecisive about these questions. Watch her at 3:35 when Dr. Farrel asks if anyone works the worst shifts. She looks to see if any men are standing, and then decides to stand up long after the question was asked. It's as if she is basing her decision to stand based on whether the men stand or not. I have never met this woman and I can already tell that she probably does not agree with Dr. Farrel and was purposely trying to skew the results in her favor

  • sorry you can't count the women lying: MANHOOD101. COM

  • @jtimleck #2 There are only two in my graduate program. However, no one was ever excluded from registering for anything. Registration was always first come, first serve. Women just don't have much of an interest in pure mathematics.

    I'm curious to see proof of your claims and evidence of exclusion.

  • @jtimleck #1"Women excel far better than men in mathematics early on..." On what are you basing this assertion? "...then they are systematically excluded into higher education." I assume that you mean that women are excluded from mathematics at the university level. Again, on what are you basing your claim? I graduated from a top 20 undergraduate mathematics program and was accepted to another top 20 graduate mathematics program. There weren't many women in my undergraduate mathematics courses.

  • Why can't they just raise their hands? Gah!

    Men earn more because they're expected to take care of their wives and children in this society. Der...

    A wage gap is meaningless without considering every factor/relationship. If a man earns a dollar to a woman's 75 cents, but has to give 75 cents to his wife when he gets home, that's not exactly equal!
