Women seek satisfaction at work in different ways than men.  Educated, gifted women in the developed world demonstrate this gender difference in career paths as they have the potential and ability to make choices and many choose a distinctly different career path.
I was reading Casey&#8217;s Raising Smart Girl&#8217;s blog about her feelings about work and motherhood and thinking [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Gifted people, whether they are children or adults, display a greater inclination towards perfectionism than the general population.  The theory is this: because gifted people have a higher level of abstract reasoning, they have a greater tendency to envision an ideal.   I would add that perfectionism in gifted adults is affected by what Ellen Winner terms &#8216;the rage [...]]]></description>
