It says:
"Hard work and discipline help girls outperform boys in class, but that advantage disappears in the work force."
Maybe hard work and discipline are the problem? Most of the guys I know who do well find ways to cheat the system, at least a bit. I'd use the distinction that Paul Graham has made about "naughty" versus "evil". Some people go to far and they end up in jail -- those are the "evil". But the naughty cheat just a little bit, and they get ahead. Maybe it is women's integrity that keeps them from being successful?
