...turn this around, it's exactly the same thing happening with the husband. Around 60% of all car purchases today are decided by the woman in the family. And when a neighbor asks the husband why he bought the car, he cannot say, "My wife loved the pink interior design in my car." That's basically saying, "I'm totally controlled by the woman at home."

...Many of the stories we have heard address similar situations: A woman who lives in the Quad is ready to go home. She has missed the 2:45 a.m. shuttle, and the next does not come until 3:15 a.m. From previous experience, she knows that the evening van service will tell her to wait for the next shuttle.
