What do women want? Well isn’t that the age old question. While I’m certainly not an expert, a little bit of research goes a long way, and I like to think I’ve always been a pretty good gift-giver. So, for those of you that are struggling with what to get the women in your life this Christmas, below are just a few ideas that she’ll love. Or, for the women out there that are done with getting the same tired things year after year, a subtle share on Facebook or Twitter may be just what he needs to get the hint and get you something awesome off this list!
