When does a girl's potential disappear?

from Conversations for a Complete Life

When, exactly, does a girl's potential disappear? The statistics tell us girls outperform boys at school; that more young women enter university; and more of them graduate from university. Yet, graduate starting salaries favour men in all fields of study but two, and in nine out of 13 industries. I share some thoughts on why women still lag behind men in terms of pay and work choices, and what it will take to one day reach equality.
