Thats true, woman very often act more "professionally".
Doing things that yield some result or where askt to do.
Doing less mindplays just for fun.

They much less philosophise about abstract concepts (except social interaction)
than men, just for the fun of it.
But if they work in a field like abtract math, or science, they work really good
on a topic that is set on the agenda.

And it is easier to convince them or have a discussion, as they dont stand
on their point as deliberate as men. (in abstract scientific discussions,
not regarding social interaction!)

And in my university I see not social "barriers" for them, to work in their field.
So social contraints are not there or very small nowerdays.
