Answer:

The answer is Gender tracking.

Explanation:

The concept of gender tracking was developed within gender studies to describe the differentiation of careers and academic fields on the function of gender. It has been discovered that academic fields are largely gendered, engineering and sciences such as physics or biology, have a higher rate of men and social and humanistic sciences have a higher rate of women. According to gender studies, this gender tracking is institutionalized and can begin as early as preschool.  It lies on gender stereotypes and expectations, the belief that women's academic abilities are only suitable for certain types of careers and that those same careers can't be performed by men.

Gender tracking has many consequences for men and for women, but especially for women; it impacts social status, education and earning potential.
