Its a selling point because it caters to a false stereotype. That of light usage, around town, minimal mileage, moderate care, moderate acceleration, etc.

Anyone who buys into that viewpoint may believe they have a few things in their favor. Other women who think being a woman means less usage may also buy into that the bike is still pretty and little has been done to it. Men who buy into that viewpoint may also believe that the woman owner either didn't want the bike to begin with or knows little about it and may want to just get rid of it for less than asking.

If I ever have to sell my bike, I am so putting down "female owned" and then listing, truthfully, the real condition of my bike. Shatter than stereotype in a nanosecond!
