men are more artistic?
women are only vessels for childbearing?
men appreciate a good investment?
women only like to spend their husbands money for renovations and clothes (for
them)?
men appreciate nostalgia because for many of them it harkens back to a time
before they were married?
women's idea of nostalgia is looking back on their daughter's first
dance recital or their son's first t-ball game?
men love the idea that it irks their wives?
all of these come to mind.

are so many more male collectors than female. After all, I see nothing at all
gender based in this hobby, unlike say baseball cards, where all the players are
men. There are certainly a lot of movies that appeal more to women than men, and
I would think a high percentage of movies are completely "gender
neutral" (appeal equally to men and women).
