A nerdy boy wouldn't ignore his girl friend for text documents, and he wouldn't put "Firefox" above his girlfriend, so why would a girl nerd? And I think the stereo type of dumb beautiful women and not so hot nerds is kind of (not I use the words "kind of") true. If a woman is born with beauty, chances are, she'll learn she gets what she wants from boys and won't see the necessity of being smart. If she comes out not as beautiful, I'm sure she'll have less of a boy distraction in her life and get into her studies.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">NerdstheWord</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 29 Oct 2009 00:09:52 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-13488404</link><description>I love video games and nerdy shows as much as my husband does, and i use the computer wayyy more than he does! Fact is, what most women think is 'nerdy' guys find cute or normal!  Im a 20 year old that's still obsessed with cartoons, and my husband coudnt be happier, becuase men are happier when they have more in common with us.  They'd rather play video games with us or watch pokemon than be forced to watch chick flicks and get yelled at for playing games. &lt;br&gt;Usually he gets out of being a 'nerd' becuase he he's asian and he says the anime, video games and lots of other stuff he likes is asian anyways so hes entitled to it.  hehe&lt;br&gt;I watch so much korean and japanese dramas these days that the typical nerdy, unpopular boy portrayed in asian media seems really hot to me.  I love thier dorky hair, big glasses, skinny bodies and shy demenor.  nerdy asian boys are sexxxyyy</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">me7777</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 28 Jul 2009 20:31:41 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-12738154</link><description>Yeah, the sexy nerd girl thing is in as you can see in the American pie moves with the whole band camp thing. Even in adult movies they are trying to work this angle.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">sextoys1</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 16 Jul 2009 08:06:15 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-7709180</link><description>To the point, the author hit this one head on. nice job.&lt;br&gt;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.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Xguy</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 01 Apr 2009 04:01:30 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-4471490</link><description>thx for the great post keep posting nice stuff</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">bollywood tube</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 17 Dec 2008 20:15:26 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-3274289</link><description>I dunno, I think the "Did you say something?" line would make me pop a boner in a half-second.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Wikiwha</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 24 Oct 2008 10:03:12 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-2452739</link><description>please that one is easy (maybe because I am a male), the answer is a male's instinct&lt;br&gt;I am a male nerd and personally I resent the male sex instinct, it makes me utterly ashamed to be alive&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;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.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">keeperofdakeys</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 20 Sep 2008 08:50:11 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-1703866</link><description>Being a nerd is fun most of the times</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">max</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 20 Aug 2008 14:56:54 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-1495235</link><description>This is one of the best posts I  have seen in a long time on the net, will be visiting again in the near future</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Snipr</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 15 Aug 2008 03:25:21 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-1495234</link><description>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.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;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.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Kim</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">hot girls</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 24 Jul 2008 20:13:45 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-1495233</link><description>I artlessly anticipate that they are authoritative ablaze of the advance women accept had over the years back it comes to earning degrees in fields best bedeviled by men.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://donating-books-to-charities.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Donating books to charities</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 24 Jul 2008 07:42:26 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-1495224</link><description>I saw that Nerd Girls article in Time.

Whether fashionable or not, it still shows if you are sexy underneath. So being nerdy and being sexy at the same time is possible.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Long Distance Moving Companies</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 09 Jul 2008 10:00:39 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-1495231</link><description>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&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Maybe this is just a spin off of the "hot for teacher" fetish born out of the 80s.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">wakemenow</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 09:19:44 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-1495225</link><description>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?</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Anna K.

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 &amp;amp; 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.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Miss Attitude</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 05 Jul 2008 21:28:42 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-1495228</link><description>Well, I never watch TV at all so I won't be watching Nerd Girls. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I happen to be a nerd in many ways (D&amp;amp;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.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">calinazaret</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 05 Jul 2008 21:01:42 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sexy Nerd Girl Fanaticism</title><link>http://menstrualpoetry.com/sexy-nerd-girl-fanaticism#comment-1495229</link><description>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.  :)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;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.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">MissRiss</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 05 Jul 2008 20:17:52 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
