With the surge of superhero movies, non-geek girls who are dragged to the movies by their boyfriends are slowly starting to discover the awesomeness that is nerdy obsession and peek behind the pop culture curtain.

Instead of going River Tam on the cheerleaders that so harshly rejected us, we need to guide these ladies into our culture (even if it means enjoying the fact that we're higher on the social - ha! - ladder than they are).

If they want to play on our grid, they need to play by our rules.

Here's a list of ten Geek Girl Commandments and the Geek Girl Bill of Rights you can share with the amateur geek girl you're mentoring.


Geek Girl Commandments
I) Thou shall not covet thy neighbor​
 
99% of geeks never has a girl friend. Let alone had a girl period.

They are to busy trying to pick up the girl in the computer game.

I think you need to recheck that statement... geek men get more lovins than you might think.

My geek, err guy, picked me up in a computer game (or perhaps that was the other way around). We've been together 4 years. :p

You mean me??? I can assure you, I'm every inch female.

Post a picture holding a sign that says AF and today's date or I aint believing it. Any picture you post that doesn't have a sign with today's date. I will say you got off the net. :p

Fight, fight, fight...

now children... play nice!! :)

Just an FYI as I think quite possibly you don't really understand what a "geek" is. :p

A geek is both intelligent and passionate about a particular subject (usually a technical pursuit). It is a common misconception that geeks are also socially inept, but in actuality they are referring to nerds and not geeks.

I love the Commandments and Bill of Rights. Don't agree with all of them as I have made some new friends because of being a female in a mostly male world, but that's just my opinion.

AND I have a lot of catching up to do - I was the nerd in school, not the geek. Finding I like the geeks more lately......they have gadgets and toys that are more fun. :D

This one's my favorite.. "Geek used to be a four-letter word. Now it's a six-figure one" - Chris Pirillo

It's all open for fun discussion of course. ;)
If it makes you feel better to think geek is a positive saying then go ahead.

Growing up I never heard anyone say when they called some one a geek that it was ever in a positive light.:rolleyes:
