Things like this need to be analysed case by case, you can't just say women don't get jobs as much just because they are women. What if the man is actually more qualified and so gets the job because of that?

That is just rubbish. Can anyone point to any job anywhere, where men and women do the same job and yet men are paid more? You can't, because it just doesn't happen any more. You'd think that if an employer could get away with paying women less, they would just fire all the men to save money on wages. And if this did actually happen anymore, you'd think there would be an uproar about it, the scale and speed with which news can be distributed nowadays.

Again, there are many factors involved in this, it would be very hard to demonstrate that sexism is the primary reason for this.
