Education is a tool to achieve social equality. To achieve educational equality, it is necessary to prevent inequalities caused by student capital (such as gender, family, city where one lives and studies, etc.). This paper focuses on the inequalities faced by women in education. This paper uses online interviews to invite participants to discuss their educational disparities. This paper found that females are easily bound by the stereotypes around them in the process of making choices, such as major choices, schools, and life choices. This kind of constraint pushes females in the direction of the social stereotype that women are more suitable. However, some women rebel against these constraints. Stereotypes influence women's professional choices and, indirectly, their job choices. Finally, it leads to a gap for women in STEM fields.
