Sex discrimination against women in the market place reduces the available talent in an economy, which has negative economic consequences. Sex discrimination takes many forms. Many social practices seen as normal from a religious or cultural point of view (which may have deep historical roots) leave women out of the economic mainstream. These social practices may have profound economic consequences because they do not allow society to take advantage of the talent inherent in women. This paper investigates these economic consequences. Although sex discrimination may have a myriad of other important consequences, including psychological, sociological, and religious, these are not discussed in this paper
