AndrewB Posted February 27, 2010 If you approached 100 women during the day to ask how they felt about nerds and nerd-related topics, what questions would you ask? I'm talking about questions that would be asked as part of a survey. What if someone else was asking the questions for you? I'll explain the premise later. I'm sure someone can think of something entertaining to ask a girl. 0 Share this post Link to post
Cjwright79 Posted February 27, 2010 May as well keep it open and general: How do you feel about nerds? What good and bad qualities do they have in your view? 0 Share this post Link to post
eargosedown Posted February 27, 2010 As a girl myself, I think the easiest question to ask is; How much, on a scale of 1 to 10, do they know about computers. That would apply to a wide range of females with mixed experience, rather than something that only some might understand (IE: as one what was the first program they booted in DOS, and while some older ones may understand, half the current generation would go "lolwut?" Ask them how many hours a day they spend "gaming", and the younger ones would probably give favorable answers over the more aged.) This is of course if you don't have a specific age range you're asking. 0 Share this post Link to post

Jodwin Posted February 27, 2010 "Mention top five activities that make a person a nerd" "How much time/effort does a person need to spend on a nerd activity to become a nerd" "Is 'nerdship' always bad? If so, can 'nerdship' be redeemed with other personal qualities" Technician said:You have the most manly sounding voice, eargosedown. Why does that sound like a disturbing pick-up line? :( 0 Share this post Link to post

kristus Posted February 27, 2010 The word "nerd" is bound to incite some prejudice though. 0 Share this post Link to post

I'd prefer a girl with just a bit of arrogant asshole :) Anyway, I would ask this: Do you try to hide your nerd-dom from girls and your girl-dom from nerds? Some do, some dont 0 Share this post Link to post

The man was riding their only donkey, while his children and wife were carrying heavy stuff like firewood and potato bags. When asked by the overly feminist reporter how come the strong and bold man made his wife do all the heavy work, he abruptly replied that "This -makes penis sign with whole forearm- needs to be well-rested in order to do its job, while this -makes slit sign with his finger- does not". 0 Share this post Link to post

And the girls have heard of neither. ;-) Actually I know better than talking about videogames with women of my age group +/- 5 years, unless -and that's a very big unless- they explicitly mention playing a specific title (not even if they generically say they have e.g. a Wii), and even then I'd stick to that title or stay silent about the whole matter altogether. Like it or not, we're a little backwards in certain matters in my little corner of the world and so women that like videogames aren't very common around here, at least if we consider my generation, but from the accounts of other people on DW it must be quite different in the USA or elsewhere. 0 Share this post Link to post
