I can think of two issues right off: society doesn't place a high enough value on the kind of work women traditionally do, such as nursing, teaching, homemaking and secretarial, among others. On the other hand, most women are not attracted to many professions which pay better, such as law, medicine (doctors) and engineering (present audience excepted). I'm also curious if young women are giving fields such as engineering more consideration than it has been given in the past.
