I don't agree with that at all - all of my geek buddies are absolutely dying
for geek girls. I can name a few that list "can code in [insert favorite
language]" before "[insert typical quality wanted by men in women]" on their
list of things they want in a girl.
Geek woman are, indeed, a rare breed IMO. I could only wish that my girlfriend
used Debian on a regular basis, coded PHP as well (or better) than me, and got
all wet (like me) when a NetApp 760 stocked full of shelves goes rolling by
in the CoLo. Instead, I settle for a girlfriend who understands my love of the
computer (which is also a rare breed).
