I’m always amazed at the impression people have that geeks are greasy-haired, asocial nerds, whereas I’ve met many sexy male geeks, some dandies even.

(not saying it for myself, by the way: no more delusions here ;) )

Anyway. I don’t know, but since the ALD was all about showing anti-sexist thinking, I’d say we have to also have an event for the other way around: guys who aren’t just a brain.

I don’t know. Could be fun to read.

(and yes, I’m still straight – I’m just thinking aloud)
