Why Men Earn More 3 - The Startling Truth Behind the Pay Gap

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

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.

@plaid4u

Are you being rude just to draw attention to yourself?

[dickinson1027]

too boring - didn't really listen

[bboygboy]

yea but when practiced, men make exponentially more than women in the fields that all the men stood up in i.e. lawyers, technicians, etc.

MEN ARE MORE COMMITTED AND FOCUSED AND DESERVE MORE PAY

@BootsMegamix dense about what. When you have a group of people willing to accept less pay because they confine themselves to certain types of job prospects -- it is not the fault of the employer.

[BootsMegamix]

@mindprism because if they don't accept it, another woman will, are you really that dense?

@obsday {pay discrimination IS discrimination - you DUMB FUCK!}

No it isn't. If you have 5 positions to fill and find 5 qualified candidates, 3 women and 2 men, and 2 of the women accept an offer 10% less than the two men -- how is that discrimination?

@gibbygano {This is inane libertarian propaganda. }

Well that settles it then.
