Here is the thing that is so sad. If one of the horny male nerds in my high school AP science classes had been able to work up the nerve to actually ask me out rather than just giving me obscene phone calls, he probably would have gotten action far beyond the fantasies of the average reader of Tolkien.
I agree with the nerdy=horny correlation. I attended a college full of engineering students. One winter evening, I was walking across campus when a probably drunken pack of nerds approached. I made the mistake of smiling or appearing friendly in some manner. The next thing I knew I was being carried down the street over the heads of a geeky mob.
Of course, I was quite offended and indignant and this memory would never make it's way into my fantasy life .
