The suspects that are usual the Frag Dolls, adult actress April O’Neil, Adrienne Munn – get trotted away repeatedly to show that fake geek girls occur because… evidently they failed some geek shibboleth somewhere over the method or something like that. We dunno.

Getting fussed over hot ladies who may or may possibly not be “true geeks” – for whatever arbitrary concept of “geek” you might like to make use of – not merely misses the purpose, but ultimately ends up distracting individuals from individuals whom are really pandering to nerds by pandering for them and insulting them in addition.

I have been here far a lot of times before We finally discovered to not ever bother. Good adequate to screw, however good adequate up to now. Which is just how I was made by it feel afterward. Applied.

But decide to try telling that to your deliciously flattered previous self, all awash in flirtatious neurotransmitters plus the most of intimate excitement.
