To clarify. Is the assignment about GIRLS (minors) or WOMEN?
Try not to use them interchangeably.
Honestly, if you haven’t got any other limits to work with when it comes to choice of literature… And your assignment is about discrimination against the girl (a minor)…
I’ll go against the grain and suggest “Matilda” by Roald Dahl.

As a supplement to the other suggestions I propose the chapter on ambivalent sexism theory by Connor Glick and Fiske (2017).
Read it a couple of years ago, and it was a transformative chapter for my political outlook. Even better it is backed up by evidence and is one of the main ways psychology explains sexism.
