Why The Geek Gets the Girl

10 reasons you should date a geek:

1. They are smart, you can actually have conversations with them that don't revolve around their pectoral muscles or last nights football score.

2. They are actually good looking. With geek being the new chic, people are noticing the appeal of the smart guy with glasses. Personally I have always thought that a man with good looking glasses is sexy.

3. They are domestically useful. They will fix your computer, your printer and your car. (well, the geeky love of my life will at least). They will be able to iron their own shirt and buy toilet paper.

4. They're not douche bags. You know how women always fall for the bad guy, try to fix them and then get cheated on and scarred for life. Yeah, date a geek. They are considerate, will respect you and listen to you but still have a standard Y chromosome related male instinct to them. With some cases, you can still have some of that fixing project were you so inclined.

5. Geeks are great lovers. Their consideration for you extends to the bedroom...

6. They  have manners, not only does that pay off in social situations and dates but your parents will love them too. They will open doors and say please and thank you. They will get the bill but allow you to go halfsies if you insist on gender equality.

7. They are on their way to well paid jobs. Even if you are an independent woman who never wants to scrounge of their man, you can still appreciate the feel of a successful career man by your side.

8. Geeks will not envy you for having a career. If you want a career, you want to be well paid and successful, your geek will support you and not get penis envy over who earns more  money.

9. They can communicate with you. Not only do they listen, but they don't give up when you're sulking and they sometimes even manage to make you talk about stuff you didn't know you could talk about but in retrospect, really needed to.

10. They have the best toys, newest gadgets and tons of films. In addition, they will always have expert input on whether you should get the new htc smartphone or the iphone.
