There is no real story or communication it's about 10 words per page and about 20 pages.

That's anecdotal evidence. My local store was opened by a married couple, is now run by one of their women staff who bought them out and I see lots of women and girls in their whenever I visit. That's anecdotal evidence too. The industry has been saying consistently that women are the fastest growing demographic, and they are the ones in the position to know, or to have paid for research to find out.

Your complaints about the writing are perfectly valid, of course. They don't have anything to do with political correctness though.
