And women are addicted to online shopping: two-thirds (66.1%) say their lives would be disrupted if they did not have access to the Internet for one week
Over half (54.1%) of women shopped online in the past six months; this finding is consistent among all age and household size segments. The likelihood of having shopped online increases with household income.

read this report too. Its funny how the two most popular ways for women to research products are ones in which they have ateast some control over the conversation and can interact with (internet and friends). Surprise Surprise!
