On WOW we naturally are interested in women getting ahead in life in the business and political world - as we hope that seeing success of this sort in our gender will motivate others, knowing that YES, this can be done.  But you are making a judgment call that these women and others do not take time for home, family, and friends.  As one who is in the world of politics, I find that often we don’t want headlines of our "real" life, our children, and more to be publicized.  It does not mean that a meaningful personal life is not going on.  On other threads, you will find emphasis on relationships, love, family, and the like.  Liza has just taken ONE of our facets - women getting ahead - and showcased it in her own style.

Come now, Lori, it seems every time I come to Wow there is some article and more on hype, cosmetics, hiding real women, personal sexual fantasies of some writers, topics of no real import for powerful people, not in the least.
