Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The gender gap is generally narrowest in educational attainment in both Western and postcolonial societies. This means that the percentage of women who have completed secondary or higher education is relatively close to the percentage of men who have done the same. While there may still be disparities in access to education and the types of fields men and women pursue, overall, there is less of a gap in educational attainment than in other areas such as labor force participation, professional status, and pay for work.
