Exactly and the step through frame is a must for some women who claim (based on lots of their own experience) of being enormously clumsy. I don't know if I'll ever buy my wife a bike that isn't a step through bike again. No matter the type because its so easy to get whatever type of bike frame (mountain, road, vintage bike) with that quality and build it up how she wants it.
I have a Women's AMF Scorcher roadbike that I plan on fixing up to ride around for myself for a fun cruiser or something cool. Why? It looks freaking awesome with everything red, bartape, seat and just looks like some sort of weird hotrod roadbike. I don't really care if its a women's bike its going to be awesome. =)
