Geekiness has become increasingly mainstream, so I disagree with your sentiments. Any time my girlfriends comment on a guy's Batman shirt or wear X-Men accessories or something, the reception is good. You aren't a stereotype, are you? I'd think not. Geeks aren't all basement dwellers.

Male geeks usually have a deep rooted and often disturbing reason for their love of geekery, though, and this often comes out in some very unpleasant ways. Not all geeks, and not all male geeks, but an aweful lot of them.

OP is a troll, but: geekiness certainly doesn't mean you're terrible, but a lot of terrible people are geeks. Does that make sense?

For some reason I'm way more likely to encounter sexism among self-identified geeks than among non-geeks. If I say "hey sexism is a thing" a normal person might be reluctant to call themselves a feminist but they're also not going to start screeching "SJW!" and belittling me.
