I actually know a good number of women who like anime.
To start with, my wife has a Totoro tattoo on her thigh because she's such a big fan of Miyazaki's works.
Another woman I know is totally into anything that CLAMP puts out.
The rest of them just enjoy it as another form of video to watch and lump anime in with general entertainment.
The thing with most of them (including my wife with the tattoo) is that they like anime in small doses and don't feel the need to chat about it online or even with friends for the most part. There is the odd exception to this (like when Claire called up from Pensylvania and yelled "MIYAKA!!!" into the telephone because I only loaned her the first half of Fushigi Yuugi) but for the most part it's just another way to pass the time (and if you're wondering about Claire, then look at my web page... you'll see that women who like anime can be HOT!).
The biggest thing with the women I know who enjoy anime is that they don't make anime their life. They'll watch one series then go a month or two before watching something else (except for Kat who really likes CLAMP but she's the exception).
