Men and women find themselves having gender differences when attaining their educational attainments. Men are found to be more literate, although women can be just as literate[1]. Although men and women can have the same level of education, it is more difficult for women to have higher management jobs, and future employment and financial worries can intensify[2][3][4] There is a more "masculine culture" in today's society and when women take on the role of managers in a company, male counterparts become tense.[5]
