Nanuet, NY (PRWEB) December 2, 2010
JoeShopping.com, an exciting new social shopping site, presents its list of the 10 Greatest Gifts for Geeky Moms this 2010 Holiday Season. Now more than ever, women of all ages are embracing pop-culture properties formerly believed to be just for boys. But these days, women are into science fiction, fantasy, comic books, gadgets and video games just as much as the next guy. Recently, a first grader named Katie was bullied for carrying a Star Wars thermos to school. After her mom told her story on a blog, the Internet rallied around Katie, creating a Support Star Wars and Geek Pride for Katie day on December 10. The Facebook event page currently has over 14,000 people attending.
Its not just boys who are geeks now, and certainly not just kids, says JoeShopping.com President Andrew Kardon. Sure, books and movies like the Twilight series have turned soccer moms into obsessed fangirls, but youll find just as many women these days diving into the age-old debate of Star Wars vs. Star Trek. Its cool to be a geek, and women are way better than men at proudly displaying their passion.
JoeShopping.coms 10 Greatest Gifts for Geeky Moms in 2010:
Star Trek Enterprise Pizza Cutter ($ 24.99 MSRP)
This official Star Trek collectible from ThinkGeek (http://www.thinkgeek.com) is ready to boldly cut pizza that no pizza cutter has cut before! Its stainless steel, comes in its own gift box, and its shaped like the NCC-1701 Enterprise the one from the original Star Trek TV series.
Star Wars Space Slug Oven Mitt ($ 19.99 MSRP)
It may not have been able to eat the Millennium Falcon in The Empire Strikes Back, but itll certainly pull a pizza out of the oven (which you can then cut with the Star Trek pizza cutter!). Its made of a fire-retardant nomex cotton blend and has a little Falcon icon in the mouth! Snatch it at the Star Wars Shop (http://www.starwarsshop.com).
Junk Food T-Shirts ($ Var. MSRP)
Every nerdy mom needs a shirt with her favorite character on it. Junk Food (http://www.junkfoodclothing.com) offers the widest and most stylish selection, with shirts featuring superheroines like Wonder Woman, classic cartoon characters like Rainbow Brite, and characters from almost any show, cartoon or movie you can think of!
Brightfeet Slippers ($ 19.99 MSRP)
The only thing worse than a cold floor is stubbing your toe in the dark. Take care of both problems by getting your gadget-geek mom these slippers (available at Amazon.com), which come with lights embedded in the toes so she doesnt have to turn on the lights. They even come in five designer colors.
Recycled Keyboard Clutch Purse ($ 37.95 MSRP)
Made from 210 old black keyboards keys, this purse from NeatoShop (http://www.neatoshop.com) is as environmentally helpful as it is stylishly nerdy. Its got a denim interior and a zipper, so all of moms gear will stay safe.
Star Wars Slave Leia Perfume ($ 39.99 MSRP)
Who wouldnt want to smell like the hottest princess in the galaxy? Available at the Star Wars Shop (http://www.starwarsshop.com), this perfume is a mix of cashmere woods, musk and night-blooming jasmine, and it smells nothing like Jabba the Hutt, for the record. However, if a better gift for mom would be to make dad smell better, you might try Shirtless Kirk cologne!
Cupcake Usagi Shoulder Bags ($ 7.50-$ 36 MSRP)
This wonderful Etsy store (http://www.etsy.com/people/cupcakeusagi) makes shoulder bags out of classic bedsheets, shirts and other materials adorned with comic book superheroes, Star Wars, 80s cartoon and more.

Any true fan of HBOs sexy vampire drama True Blood will be thrilled to quench their thirst with this replica of the synthetic blood beverage Vampire Bill and his fanged brethren drink on the show.

Doctor Who TARDIS Talking Cookie Jar ($ 26.99 MSRP)
The Doctors time-traveling TARDIS is legendary for being bigger on the inside than it is on the outside, making it the perfect place to store cookies. This 6x6x9 jar also makes the TARDIS signature noise when opened, so your cookies may be having adventures through time and space! Available from the extremely geek-friendly Entertainment Earth (http://www.entertainmentearth.com).
