I guess my question boils down to looks or brains? I am way more attracted to smart people that cute ones. NO REALLY!
The geek category of the smart people group is even better because of their perceptions of life and the world around them. Never a dull moment with a geek!! Smart guys that are geeky get that "aww how sweet" thing going for them in the looks department.
Your definiton is not clear. There are many groups that fall between your net: For example me: Most say I am a genius on that what I am doing: Programming, logical thinking and - if I am interested in the topic - Mathematics. But I do not have good marks. Because I am lazy and to apathic and the things I do not like, and I am some kind of weird ... (miaou :) )... So do not forget the default: statement in your man type switch.Quote:

So most people think you're a genius? Most people think I smile too much to have a master's degree in engineering... but I do... what do 'most people' know anyway? ;)
They know nothing. But there must be something behind it otherwise there wouldn't be any norms. To get back on the geeks: These are just fictive imaginations on how geeks should look like ... This is only prejudice and it is far away from reality. There are no geeks: There are just people with mental disseases and sometimes they are also interested in techniques. This is what a geek supposed to be. But a geek is just a look-down word that tries to catch every technique fan ... Like a base class that does not handle specified base classes. Forget the switch one... :D

Oops! I have none :eek:Quote:

well, if you want to know more about nerds (which is only a small step to being a geek) and how narrowmindedness and special interest help defining such guys, have a look into the "any other interests " thread!
if trying to decide whether a person, be it a geek or not, is hot, why not look at a photo? post one! i'm looking forward to it.
BTW: amiga rulez!

I think that term refers to any gender. If im correct... then, you are in the right place. Coz the title of this thread is Hot Geeks. ;)Quote:

just come to any malaysian school or university... you'll find alot like them, but should warn you they are very shy, innocent and not socially active. its vry hard to communicate with them, expecially for men...
I'm sure youll do fine with them since youre also a girl... :D
/I wanna also take my masters, but don't now when... very busy working.. :(
That's really funny... but true, huh?? :DQuote:

yp, its true, but most guys would look for girls llike that to b their wife, me too. :blush: :)
/i'm thinking of taking part time masters..
Why blush?? Hahaha.. that's funny. Maybe you should start a new thread here and ask other people how to put the moves on girls that you described. ;) Let me quote here:Quote:

All I can say is... next time, make sure that there is a possibility she'll return your feelings, so that you wont get hurt when you do take the chance to ask her. ;)
Man... we're making this thread an advice column..:D :D (Sorry ****eygirl).
yep, learned my lesson.... ;)

at the software engineering school i attended, there were some really really hot ladies (including my girlfriend), but also - as far as i, as a man, can judge - some nice men!
i also have to state, that those guys, that would optically be identified as geeks (this glass-wearers), did not neccessarilily perform well in mathematics or programming and the like at the school i mentioned above.
Don't worry mate, that always happens. You see a girl, like the girl, ask the girl, get rejected by the girl etc...Quote:

The world has changed or something. Once upon a time there were a few girls at CodeGuru. And now oops... 2 girls are around. So it seems to be the right time for me to come back :D
