Then she becomes a Saturn seller and cheekily reverses roles with her male clients? That was about 10 years ago but I remember it because it was really insightful marketing from an industry that typically markets the oh-so-stylish minivan to my gender. (Like moms don't want trucks and musclecars! Have these auto dudes even BEEN to the Midwest?) Anyway, you're dead-on that women drive purchases - tech, auto, music, travel, life insurance, etc. We buy it all and we do it making 70 cents on the dollar, dancing backwards in high-heels. Excuse me while I burn my bra. Jk... no one does that anymore. To paraphrase Nina DiSesa, fewer than 2% of Fortune 1000 CEOs are women. The playing field is not legal. I'm over it. Now, hand me the remote. Do you remember the commercial for Saturn where a woman goes in to buy a car and the sales guy shows her the vanity mirror?

Though I must say, I haven't met too many women who actually want that 60" big screen in their living rooms. We're perfectly content to have the 27". Perhaps the bigger your penis, the bigger and badder you want your household electronics to be. Just a thought. I dig it Aaron.
