  I don't know about being a nerd. I'm more of a dork. But I have the glasses to carry off the nerd girl thing. Just don't ask me to talk all intelligent and such. :)
  
  My sister once insisted, and I increasingly agree, women do more damage to themselves (as a sex) because we, in general permit objectification. And, it sounds like this Nerd Girls show is doing just that... but I would have to watch it to gain a better perspective. I don't want to pass judgement, by any means.

  Well, I never watch TV at all so I won't be watching Nerd Girls.
  
  I happen to be a nerd in many ways (D&D nerd, anime nerd, linux nerd). I think the appeal in having a nerd girlfriend is that we understand a nerd's interests more. That understanding and commiseration is a blessing and a curse for several reasons in a relationship.

  Why can't men just be attracted to a woman for exactly who she is? If I knew the answer to that I'd be making tons of money and have an endless string of dates. She should be sexy for being who she is, whether it's a nerd or just intelligent & successful. As for the term girl, it doesn't bother me at all. I use the term boy in my writing as well and have already prefaced it's not meant to be disrespectful. I call women girls and men boys.

  please that one is easy (maybe because I am a male), the answer is a male's instinct
  I am a male nerd and personally I resent the male sex instinct, it makes me utterly ashamed to be alive
  
  as for calling them 'girls', to me that and 'boys' points to the fact that they are not grown up, as in inexperienced and not very wise.

  I feel like nerd is a badge of honor now, people like to self identify. Geek, nerd, dork people only like those labels if they feel like they own it.

  Well, There was a time when sexy and sizzling girls who show some skin were hot favorite but not now. Preferences have been changes and sex means something more than a sex only.

  It's just like when Blonde women were hot in early 70's but not anymore. Men want more than sex, even when they're having one. They tend to be dependent upon able women if they can, as more women are going up in the management and beat them in $$ in their pocket. Who wouldn't want to lay down on the bed and cook for dinner while watching TV all day long?

  I fall under the dork category too and don't need glasses. My experience is that some guys claim to have a fetish for "nerdy girls" but it's usually just as superficial as any other type of fetish. They don't actually want to hear one of us go off on a rant about something that fascinates us, they just think we look hot "dressed all nerdy and stuff." Then again, I'm not sure what "dressing nerdy" entails for women? Unfashionable clothing? That could mean anything really. Valuing comfort over fashion hasn't seemed to turn many heads my way, I'll tell you that. lol
  
  Maybe this is just a spin off of the "hot for teacher" fetish born out of the 80s.

  Being a nerd is not that discriminating at this age. Whether fashionable or not, it still shows if you are sexy underneath. So being nerdy and being sexy at the same time is possible.

  I saw that Nerd Girls article in Time. It really says something about our society when the fact that there exist women who are both smart AND good looking is deemed worthy of an article in a national magazine.

  I think this not only applies to girls, but guys as well. Alot of the older nerds from more than about 10 years ago might follow wikipedia's stereotypical description of the nerd However, nowadays in some cases to be nerd is to be cool as well, especially in internet chat rooms like Yahoo chat.
  
  Many families teach us to eat properly and exercise and are brought up in good families. This creates the new type of nerds that are actually hot girls and guys as well. Just something to think about.

  To the point, the author hit this one head on. nice job.
  I agree in the point that I consider myself a sexy nerdy type of GUY. YES, that's rite. Y it gotta be females in order to be considered sexy nerdy? I also agree that people downgrade women when they call them girls, that sexuality and harassment is all too often seen in the workplace by BOTH sexes, that stereotypes can sometimes be fun but for the most part anything portrayed in the media is 90%- false according to US demographics because almost all the people portraying the stereotypes of a certain group are of a certain ethnicity that reinforces the inaccurate portrayal of 100% of people who qualify to be in that group. IE., for example, you can't say all african-americans are dark skinned and look african. Similarly, you can't say all sexy nerdy women are caucasion and wear thick black glasses. Or is that the definition of sexy nerdy? Does the media define what sexy nerdy is or is it based on what we perceive in our own heads? There's something to think about.
