(applause) >> men do get paid more than women, significantly more. in america today on average for every buck a man makes women earn just $0.77. >> there's one thing that just about every single job in america has in common, the dudes get paid more for doing it. >> no, i shouldn't say that. it's not fair if we dudes get paid more for doing the same job. i had a daughter i want her to be paid what she is worth. but i wonder, do we do the same jobs? are women really discriminated against? tonight we separated the studio audience men on this side women over here and as we came in we
7:02 pm
asked the people with jobs to anonymously write down how much money they earn. then we averaged the salary. for the women the average turned out to be 66,000. for the men 79,000. that means for every dollar the men make the women only made $0.83. that is more than the national average of $0.77. so good for you. the difference ticked people off it was a campaign issue last election. >> women being paid $0.77 on the dollar for doing the same work as men isn't just unfair it hurts families. >> $1 verses $0.77, what horrible discrimination saws the author of cult of power, sex discrimination in corporate america. martha this is because of
7:03 pm
discrimination? >> not all of it. but a good portion of it is. absolutely because of discrimination. >> why would employers all discrimina discriminate? they are all sexist? >> some don't pay enough attention to who they are paying what. they don't realize that maybe front linemanagement is making decisions that are not in the best interest of women. some of them think they can get away with it and th goes back to the early 20th century when people paid women less because they were women and said so out lewd. >> you are saying that is 100 years ago. are you saying that is still going on today? >> i am saying we still live in the legacy of it absolutely. otherwise why would take two jobs like school cafeteria worker and school custodian. why would those not be paid the
7:04 pm
same because they are the same skill level, same entry level type of job yet the custodians make more because they are predominantly male, the cafeteria ladies are just that predominantly female and that job pays less. the same is true for parole officers and social workers. essentially the same kind of work. parole officers make more money because they are predominantly male. >> warren farrell wasn't agreeing with what she says. here's a picture of him with gloria stein numb who joined feminist protests he was on the board or now, national organization for women. he dug deeper and changed his mind. he wrote why men earn more the startling truth mind the gpay gaff and what women can do about
7:05 pm
it. you learned it wasn't discrimination? >> the take was not about men and women it's about mothers and sfrs. there are 25 different work life choices men and women make. every single one of men's choices lead to men on average earning more money every single one of women's choices lead them to having a more balanced life which usually ends up being a happier life. >> you said women are smarter than men. >> women are much smarter than men. we knew that. >> because the man is more willing to travel have a more dangerous job sashing fys family life and well grounded well rounded. >> people pay for what they need. men go into the hazardous jobs that are likely to pay more given the amount of education they have. more more likely to work extra weekend. >> martha, what do you say about that? >> i think mr. farrell's data are bogus. everybody agrees that even in
7:06 pm
female dock nated jobs like nursing and teaching men make more. i just read a study before i came on the air by the american bar association partners and law firms there is a huge gender pay gap. >> warren, the nurses are getting ripped off. >> nurses might be but it helps to know that a nurse anesthetist earns 25,000 to 250,000 a year. if you are a nurse you earn much less than that. let's teach our daughters the specializations they can enter where they can out earn men rather than -- >> are you saying the girls are dumb and they could make more money and they foolishly choose art history not knowing it will pay less? >> if they are taught only about discrimination they are not taught about how unlikely they are to get a job with french literature and art history major and they only care about fulfillment we have to disclose our daughters at son's tradeoff.
7:07 pm
if you want fulfillment get fulfillment. women business owners who have mba's make only 49 percent of what male business owners make. >> sexism. >> we think it's sexism until you learn it's what they want. i want to be my own boss, i want to be close to home. >> martha, what about that? you women are smarter and make better life choices. you don't work yourselves to death. >> well, mr. farrell said motherhood is fun nished because that's the choice women make. well, he's got a point but he didn't tell us the other half. that is being a father and being married actually helps men in the workplace. it punishes women. we have a lot of data that shows that the employer looks at that women even if she is not married yet and thinks of her as a potential mother.
7:08 pm
maybe i better not hire her, maybe i better not pay quite as much. certainly don't want to promote her she might get pregnant drop out of the work force. >> she might. is the employer foolish to worry about that? >> well, that's because the culture and our society punishes women for being mothers. there's no organized child care for example. >> when women make 100 or so thousand dollars a year they start asking a different set of questions. many women say what do i want out of my life? do i want to make 200,000 a year or do i want more personal time more time with my children? do i want more time at the gym, do i want more spiritual time? do i want more time with my spouse. women are more likely to say i want a balanced life. they don't go to the highest level because they are not stupid. >> you are saying they are making a choice. warren, thank you. martha, thank you. we won't solve this year. recently cheryl san berg a chief

operating officer of facebook got attention for saying things like this. >> a couple weeks ago on facebook we hosted a senior government official. there are these two women traveling with him who are pretty senior in their apart. i said sit at the table. sit at the table. they sat on the side of the room. >> feminists were angry about what she said. other things on the book the social justice based feminine movement at risk. the victims of men's corporations. they say sexist society holds women back not the way women act. but san burg's book did become a number one best seller? does she have a point? yes does sabrina schafer of independent women's forum. go take it away. >> i thought san burg offered a very thoughtful session of women
7:10 pm
in the workplace. she did not offer public policy prescription she gave nuts and bolts suggestions for women who have high aspirations strong career path aspirations and here are real things you can do to better yourself. >> don't they take a seat at the table? >> they pick up on sensitive gender differences. men and women are different. more they can recognize and accept the differences the better they are. women don't negotiate their salaries. my brother told me he negotiated every salary he has. >> women are timed? >> not that women are timid. there may be ways we are not thinking about asserting ourselves in the workplace we could do more of. >> why were women on the left so angry about that? >> a lot of the battles they are fighting han won they are out
7:11 pm
pacing men professionally. there's a big sigh really are we still having this conversation? >> you live longer than we do. you get all of the breaks. >> i agree with some of the feminists. i think sanburg is a little out of touch. here's why. i don't think most people want a family. only 23 percent of women say they would prefer to work full-time let alone live a ceo quality of life sha cheryl sanburg is living. as warren just suggested most women want some kind of balance in their life. >> they are making a choice. did you make a choice? are you earning less because you made a choice? major nods there. thank you sabrina. >> coming up, is it true that women can do anything that men can do?

>> as the battle of the sexes continues let's talk sports. how many of you love sports? slightly more men. how many of you played a support this month? hands up. all right. more guys. i think that's typical. when it comes to sports men and women i think are different. not all of you, but most of you. this to me is common sense. but to say that is not politically correct. it is utterly unacceptable in washington, d.c. where politicians passed a law called 509 which says no person can on the basis of sex be subjected to discrimination under any education program. that sounds good. discrimination is something we like. our vice president says title 9

7:18 pm
support, and at the time penn state didn't sport soccer so we filed a title 9 complaint so we would have equal opportunity. >> i would argue people were just waking up to what women could do at the time and this would have happened anyway if women wanted to play sports universities who wanted the customers would have accommodated. >> it would have happened very, very, very slowly. >> why wouldn't the university say we have got to get these women. >> equal opportunity in activities in athletics. it costs muvenlt title 9 really forced educational institutions to make sure that both sons and daughters have equal opportunity. >> equal opportunity would suggest women want to play sports just as much as men. you say they do? you do? >> i do. >> you do.
7:19 pm
>> button average women often have other interests. little girls talk and men want to run around and smash into each other. aren't we different? >> i think we each have uniqueness. i think title 9 really pushes the issue that regardless if it's athletics or drama if it's the band that whether you are a man or a women you should have the opportunity to participate in that activity. >> i keep hearing about unhappy news for boys and about title 9 leading colleges to eliminate some men's sports. >> it was yanked out of under water when they cut the wrestling program under title 9. >> it is one of ten things the school is cutting. >> indoor track is the most dropped men's team. isn't this sort of bad for the guys? >> unfortunately the powers to

7:21 pm
16 percent. different interests. >> again, that has been debated. how do you determine interests. >> if had to be forced i would think the culture just changed when i was a kid my school was all men. we complained and princeton voluntarily admitted women. culture was changing. once it was taboo for women to smoke wear trousers in public. to go to a bar alone. culture changes. we don't need your stupid law. >> we do. we need it. we need the law. >> we need the law. we would have been waiting of years. we would have been waiting forever. >> hundreds of years? >> yeah, we would still be -- caveman and cave women days if we didn't push the issue. a lot of times what happens is a

7:27 pm
the same it is only because of sexist society parents and piers encouraging boys to play with guns girls to play with dolls that causes boys and girls to behave differently. if we just stop doing that there would still be equal numbers of female race car drivers and male ballet dancers. i believed that, i really did, until i had children and look up and there's a report on abc news that got me into trouble. i said look boys and girls are just not the same. >> we treated them the same. but they were just so different. i don't just mean my kids. you see it in their friends, too. the girls were, well, more civilized. they would look you in the eye, talk to you. they cared about your feelings. the boys... the boys wanted to go to war. >> bang, bang, bang.
7:28 pm
>> the girls played more about playing with each other, talking, cooperating. >> you will be the princess. >> there were plenty of exceptions but the pattern was clear no matter how sex neutral we parents try to be it seemed obvious to see boys and girls instincts are somehow different. the author of "the power of the female brain" agrees with that. that's neuroscientist dr. dan um haman. you conducted the biggest brain study ever done, 46,000 brain scans and found what? >> female brains were dramatically more active in about 85 percent of the brain. women are wired for leadership. if you look at the homes and look at organizations like churches, they are often the leaders. they are clearly the health leaders. if it wasn't for this thing
7:29 pm
called children that de rail their careers they would really make great ceo's. women in our studies and also i point this out in the book, they are better with things like empathy, intuition, collaboration, self control. women go to jail 14 times less than males and what many people wouldn't think of as a strength is they have appropriate worry. the don't worry be happy people more often men on motorcycles die the earl list from accidents or preventable illnesses. >> this is wired into our brains this is not about parenting? >> it is wired into your brain. when little boys are exposed to testosterone and girls aren't, if there is reshaping or
7:30 pm
remodeling that happens and it happens very early inside your mother's bomb. >> -- womb. >> at conception we start with the same number of cells except the y chromosome that has hormones added to the cells and this makes men's brains different. >> right. so whether you have the y chromosome or not triggers testosterone or not nearly as much the level of testosterone you have in utero begins to shape your brain in a certain way. >> and changes you forever? >> it certainly makes a big difference. what is interesting is that if women take testosterone and that is happening more and more, if they take too much they begin to think like a guy. they always think about sex they have less empathy and it can cause some trouble.
7:31 pm
>> they ride motorcycles. >> i want to poll my audience here. how many of you have a good sense of direction? more guys i am seeing raising their hands than women. that's my experience. look at this experiment. this first one was done at the university of rochester. >> students are blindfolded and walked through a maze of tunnels that run under the campus. they guide them and tap them on the shoulder so they don't run into anybody. when a woman is asked where a college building is they are not so sure. men however retained a sense of what direction they moved. >> go through the next doors take a left and a right and a left. >> in another experiment in new york university in toronto students were asked to wait in a
7:32 pm
cluttered room while an experimenter got something ready. what the student didn't know is waiting was the whole experiment. they were asked this. >> tell me every object in that room that you remember. >> women give answers like this. on the right-hand side of the desk was a briefcase with your initials at the top there was a tuke a mitt and i am 40 button on it. in the middle new york university envelopes a thing of cl clearsil. >> the women would go on and on. the men would say things like i don't know there was some stuff. so doctor, this is a biological difference? >> oh, no question. the memory centers of the brain the campus deep in the brain significantly more active in women than in men which is why she remembers your first kiss
7:33 pm
and every time your mother was rude to her. when women get an emotional memory they have trouble letting it go. often remember things you wish they would have forgotten. >> i remember my first kiss. it remind me of what happened to laurence summers president of harvard where he dared say maybe just maybe a reason that women don't dominate the way men do in the sciences might be biological. he got drummed out of harvard just for saying that. >> he did but i think it was the wrong message that they weren't perhaps as good or as confident. their brains in that particular area of the brain are just as strong.

they are more biassed to relationship issues. they are more likely to go into professions where they want to interact with people. >> interesting. thank you doctor. >> when we return how young reporter john stossel was totally clueless in general at co ed schools the boys get the better deal. >> the boys say what they think and if they are wrong they don't care.
