I'm grateful to my client, Alltech, for asking me to conduct this "research" and to the women who answered my questions on this topic. If you're wondering, yes I do see the irony in a man explaining what women want.
I did most of the work for this on Twitter. And here's a sample of who responded to my inquiries - it's not everybody but it's a pretty impressive group. Most, though not all, are moms:
- Liz Gumbinner, advertising exec, entrepreneur, and co-author of Booty Food
- Sheril Kirshenbaum, researcher, columnist at Bloomberg View, and author of The Science of Kissing
- Kristen Chase, entrepreneur, music therapist and author of The Mominatrix
- Susan Getgood, VP of Sales & Marketing, BlogHer
- Kelly Wickham, educator, writer
- Heather Chapman, journalist
- Susan Niebur, astrophysicist, writer, 4-time cancer survivor
- Joanne Bamberger, attorney, entrepreneur, author of Mothers of Intention
- Alma Klein, marketing executive
- Cecily Kellogg, writer, SEO expert and social media strategist
- Thea Joselow, copywriter, entrepreneur
- Heather Barmore, education advocate, writer
- Dawn Crawford, social media strategist
- Carin Bondar, biologist, filmmaker
- Stefania Pomponi Butler, entrepreneur
- Andrea Kuszewski, researcher, therapist, writer
- Sarah Braesch, entrepreneur, sports fan
- Jenny Lawson, author, columnist for the Houston Chronicle
- Julie Marsh, entrepreneur, former military officer, triathlete
- Catherine Holecko, journalist
- Pam Slim, entrepreneur, author and business coach
- Catherine Connors, entrepreneur, writer, philanthropist
- Tanis Miller, advocate for persons with disabilities, writer
- Susan Davis, freelance writer
- Amanda Eamich, online communications specialist for a government agency
- Jaelithe Judy, writer, SEO consultant
- Leigh Ann Simmons, researcher, entrepreneur, my wife
So tune in and offer a question or a thought or two. I'm @dwescott1 on Twitter.
(gulp.)

I'll chime in here since I'm never on the Twitter anymore: I want male politicians to stop trying to legislate what I can and can't do with my body. No uterus? No say.
The good news is this -- when we take over the world, we've got your back. ;)
