Do men really earn more than women? Or do they just work harder and smarter – and sacrifice more?

Thirty years ago, Warren Farrell wrote books about the benefits to men of women’s liberation. He often wore a “59¢” badge – calling attention to the wage gap at the time between men and women. But then he found himself wondering about that gap: “If an employer had to pay a man one dollar for the same work a woman could do for 59¢, why would anyone hire a man?”

AT LUNCH WITH WARREN FARRELL
Are Women Responsible for Their Own Low Pay?
 
By CLAUDIA H. DEUTSCH
Do you think that Lawrence H. Summers, Harvard’s president, stirred up a hornets’ nest by suggesting that women’s brains are not genetically wired for math or science? Wait until you hear Warren Farrell on the subject of women’s pay.

Of men, women, and money
 
Do men earn more money than women in comparable jobs with comparable responsibility? Most people seem to think so. During one of the presidential debates, John Kerry complained that full-time working men made a dollar for every 76 cents paid to women for the same work. President Bush didn’t challenge the statement, and reporters let it go by as well. “The average woman is cheated out of about $250,000 in wages over a lifetime,” said an article in Ms. Magazine. The AFL-CIO estimates that working families lose $200 billion of income annually to the male-female wage gap.

One American construction worker dies every workday hour.

For the past 40 years Labor Day has emphasized the celebration of a crucial change in the labor force-the addition of women. The first Labor Day after 9/11, though, reminds us that one aspect of the labor force has experienced no more change than the “Glass Ceiling”. That might be called the “Glass Cellar”.

Opinion
Are Women Earning More Than Men?

Warren Farrell
May 12, 2006

New York -When I was on the board of directors for the National Organization for Women in New York City during the 1970s, I led protests against the pay gap. I wore a “59 Cents” pin to reflect my objection to the discrimination I felt was the cause of women earning only 59 cents to each dollar earned by men. Now, since I’m a husband and father, discrimination against women isn’t just political, it’s personal.

The New York Times: Exploiting the Gender Gap

Exploiting the Gender Gap
 
By WARREN FARRELL
 
Carlsbad, Calif. — Nothing disturbs working women more than the statistics often mentioned on Labor Day showing that they are paid only 76 cents to men’s dollar for the same work. If that were the whole story, it should disturb all of us; like many men, I have two daughters and a wife in the work force.

9/11’s Survival Dilemma

By Warren Farrell, Ph.D. (www.warrenfarrell.com)
For more depth, see The Myth of Male Power
 
September 11 presents a dilemma for every family who loves their country and loves their children. We are grateful beyond words for the firefighters and policemen who sacrificed their lives for the possibility that others might live. When someone does this for a stranger, and in defense of his or her country, that is the quintessential example of heroism.

Three Judicial Biases About Moms, Dads, and Children

 
By Warren Farrell, Ph.D. (www.warrenfarrell.com)

For more depth, see In The Best Interests of the Child and Father And Child Reunion
 
When I do expert witness work, I confront from most judges three biases that I myself was also surprised to see proven invalid when I did the research for Father and Child Reunion. The first bias is the stability bias; the second is the mother bias; and the third is the ‘If-the-couple-is-in-conflict-joint-custody-will-not-work’ bias. All of these biases apply to post-divorce parenting.

Father and Child Reunion-Part II

By Warren Farrell, Ph.D. (www.warrenfarrell.com)

For more depth, see In The Best Interests of the Child and Father And Child ReunionThe Unspoken—and often Unconscious—Contributions of Dads

Prior to doing the research for Father and Child Reunion, I knew dads were more likely to play, coach and roughhouse with their children. I did not know that in comparison to children raised by single moms, children raised by single dads are more likely to be assertive without being aggressive. (My expectation was that rough-housing might contribute to aggressiveness, not assertiveness.) Assertiveness without aggressiveness is one of the key qualities to being successful in work and life. It leads to better social skills and more friends; more self-confidence and less depression; less acting out…

The Family Arrangements that Work Best for Children

Father and Child Reunion (2001) is a meta-analysis of hundreds of studies from the U.S. and other countries. Many of the studies look at what leads to children doing the best and worse after divorce. The documentation for these findings is in Father and Child Reunion.These are the family structures ranked according to the ones in which children do the best—the last three after divorce:
