To me it's the difference between a socially aberrant trait for men and a socially inherent trait for women, in how obsession is seen, and I think you and I are saying the same thing there.

However the negative effects of that portrayal do not effect men in success as much as they affect women. Being perceived as a nerd, even a hard-core one, is not something that socially discourages you from most professions, and such nerds are revered in entertainment. That simply isn't the case with "crazy bitches," not even in modelling. It's probably more accurate to say that nerds don't have the same drag as crazy bitches.

That's specifically for nerd/crazy. However socially aberrant behavior in men doesn't have a more prohibitive value than the same behavior considered socially inherent in women necessarily or even usually. Moreover, if the "negative" behavior isn't immediately evident, a woman will automatically be assumed to have the negative behavior and judged accordingly and a man will not, since it is aberrant for him.
