Nowadays we are surrounded by peer networks. There are those virtual social ones, where you work hard at adding peers (“friends”) as if they were scores in a game, most of which you barely remember and will never meet again. Then there are those professional networks where your peers are called “connections” and where past job experiences tend to wax lyrical. But the peer network that counts, according to a recent CESifo study, is the one you had outside school when you were a high school student. Provided, that is, that that peer network contained a significant number of females.
