although my fiancee has never played games on my 360, she sure uses it all the time to watch netflix, hbo go, and show time on demand. I am sure others are the same (especially with kinect, it makes watching so much easier)

Yea, I'm thinking a decent amount of woman users just use it for streaming.  Sure some game on it but I'm thinking that a majority are girlfriends and wives that use it for shows, movies and music.

A lot of women use Nintendo Wii's, DS and PSP's. I've witnessed a lot of them upgrading to 360's and PS3's. To say that the only use a woman has for a console is for viewing media doesn't read well. 

I believe people are using their systems to stream more than game in general.
