What Do Women Want? Just Ask - New York Times
About how women control the world, well, the financial world.
A quote from the article I like:

Best Buy, for example, “used to be a boy store, built by boys, for boys, but four to five years ago, there was a dramatic flip,” said Julie Gilbert, a vice president with the company. That change, she said, occurred with the rise of must-have products like digital cameras, MP3 players, cellphones and other mobile devices, and products like flat-screen televisions that have became fashionable accessories for the home.

“Women are outspending men in our industry $55 billion to $41 billion,” Ms. Gilbert said. “Not only that, they are actually influencing 90 percent of the purchases. It is a new day in consumer electronics.”
