This is so great! Websites designed for each gender to shop for the other, with the assumption that left to their own devices, they won't do as well... and created by Minneapolis-based Gen-Xer Michelle Courtright Bjork.
www.romeoshops.com - for guys looking to buy gifts for the girls
and
www.julietshops.com - vice versa
Actually, the Juliet Shops site is better - full of fun, creative things for guys that aren't readily available elswhere. The Romeo site had a lot of jewelry & more obvious stuff - but also some cool & creative ideas.
I don't think this kind of thing offends Gen X - we know we're equal, and are too busy to spend hours shopping - we appreciate the help. I loved the guy stuff on the Juliet site & had three things in my cart within 10 minutes. Outstanding.

I love those sites too! I just read in the StarTribune and Vita.MN that they now have a cool retail store, "the romeo & juliet shop", in downtown Minneapolis in Gaviidae Common at 6th and Nicollet.
