LOL.... Totally feel that way about my sexy engineer husband too. Always loved those fit, smart, sexy engineer types (was surrounded by 100's of them at work for years - I tell all my GF's to go for this type). And I found and married the best one for me. He tells me he has always had this passion for learning how parts work best together - whether mechanical robotic parts or the parts of my body. He can intensely focus on keeping all the parts maintained and the engines running perfectly. LOL. It does work out very well for me.

Which, I'm thinking tonight might end up being a Halo night.
It's always "over compensating" to people who don't live it.

I don't like guys who play video games... not one bit. In fact, I find it to be one of the biggest turn-offs. So now maybe I don't like nerds?

Yeah, I have a little pee-pee because I like American muscle cars and drive a 3/4 ton 4X4 truck. I've heard that kind of stuff all before. My reply is TO GET A REAL MAN!

I dislike that pasty-white, always indoors, video-playing type. I would run far from that. I like those manly-men who have those manly hobbies like hunting, fishing, building things out of wood. A guy who can survive in the woods for a week with nothing but a pocket knife (Bear Gryllis is SO my type). Sorry if that sounds totally sexist, but that's what I like (and I can survive in the woods too). So maybe I don't like nerds?

This is my type of guy... A hot guy with good teeth who can kill a snake with a handmade spear and eat it raw in the woods if necessary for survival... So I guess I like the partial nerd.

So true. Being nerdy isn't limited to non-mainstream topics.
