6. The spread of smart-lady reads — A slew of new publications — both online and in print — have cropped up within the last few years, all featuring topics, articles, and products geared toward the modern-day woman (read: the woman who doesn't necessarily need an ice cube to make her relationships sizzle, and who cares just as much about politics, science, and literature as much as pop culture, makeup, and fashion). From The Gentlewoman to The Hairpin (and including us, too — hello!), we're in the middle of a rebirth of female-driven reads, and we're loving all the options.
