Oh, come on! You're guilty of the exact same crime of which you are accusing the author! I can count on one hand the number of geek friends that I had in college who *weren't* complete jerks. The majority of them exhibited the same personality charactaristics as the rest of the population. I don't think you can say that every geek is a sensitive, shy, gold mine of a find. I would have loved to find a geekgrrl to settle down with, but I found out that just because she digs code, she isn't above pulling the same stuff that your Shallow Beautiful Women. I was fortunate enough to find a Biology major, whom I am marrying in 2 weeks, to settle down with. The point of this rambling is that you can't assume that every geek, or even most geeks are princes. Just like you can't assume that all Jocks are asses...
