You know, that is true.  The first set my wife *noticed* was the Ninja's
Fortress, when I got a second (how can anybody lay siege to the original
model?) she was really impressed!  I took it down and built a Hydronaut base
and she thought it looked cluttered and odd.  True, but I like those darned
sci-fi things, she goes for the true-to-life structures.  Women also like to
be included with the guy's addiction, just pick an avenue that SHE likes (i.e.
let her choose for you).
Luck!
