Big Bang Theory

Post-digital universe has a new alpha male theory - the nerd supremacy! And they come equipped with some special talents when it comes to scoring with the womenfolk (even if they don’t know it yet!)

I visited a comic book convention on a February day that had a nip in the air that weakened as the day progressed. It was ideal weather for a revelation. That geek and nerd culture is no longer a closeted affair is a well known fact, but ay dios mio! The women in these places are just off the chart, with all that objectifying cosplay costumes and the faux randy/demure/ vitriolic expressions that they tease through painted veils. The exhibitionists are marked with the clarity of a large X on a treasure map and unabashed stares in these places aren’t frowned upon, but encouraged. Funnily enough, while clusters of hombres would whisper and steal furtive glances at them like arrested robbers fresh out of excuses, none would actually speak to them. Posing as a social experimentalist, I sought these young men out and spoke to them. And discovered that dating for nerds is a whole different ball game.
