Gadgets For Women

from the they-are-a-big-market,-after-all dept

Historically, gadget and consumer electronics makers have targeted men with their products. However, they’re finally realizing that there are women consumers too. The article explains some of the general differences between how men and women look to buy consumer electronics. However, they don’t explain how men should buy gadgets as gifts for women. That’s a completely different science, apparently.

Gadgets For Women

A fairly sexist point of view. Sounds like the old “the ladies can pick the color” point of view from the automakers in the ’50’s. Women read specs just like any (male) consumer does. The writer must be my mother’s age (mid-60’s) if she doesn’t know what a sub-woofer is. She should just ask her daughter for help and stop kidding herself.
