First she talked about the cultural constraints. She said that stereotyped views about the nature of women often serve to perpetuate discrimination and do no allow women to be leaders. The today Chinese society doesn't have precisely the same value as the traditional society, although as any society in the world , the Chinese society has inherited a lot, from its past. And even attenuated, the stereotyped about the nature of woman still prevail somehow. Negative attitudes toward women leaders are not unusual in China.
Examples are Chinese women's restricted access to become a communist party membership.
In fact, women have more problems becoming members than do Chinese men. However, a member of the party is an advantage. It eases the access to managerial position. The number of women restricted in certain specialties at the Chinese Universities is also considered by Karen Korabic as a barrier to equality. For example, for universities entrance, some Chinese universities required higher scores for women than for men.
