I've seen a few girls here, in different threads, describe themselves as "nerds". My ATF says she was a nerd in high school. It's a cliche among another group of young attractive females who make a living off their physicality (models) to say, "oh I was such a nerd in high school...tall and gangly and I didn't sprout until senior year when everyone started to notice me!!" Uh-huh. There was an entire SNL skit with Cameron Diaz making fun of this line.
So how many of you think of yourselves as nerds, and why? My personal theory is, for young attractive females -- which strippers almost all are, you have to be for your line of work -- who say they're nerds or used to be in high school, most are using the word wrong.
I think most aattractive girls who self-identify as nerds really mean, "oh I wasn't a cheerleader and in the 'popular crowd' and considered 'pretty' by everybody, and I didn't date the football players and rich guys whose daddy bought them fancy cars." But that's not a nerd. It just means you weren't one of the 5% in the so-called "in-crowd."
A TRUE nerd is marked by poor social skills, a consuming interest in extremely nerdy topics like sci-fi (for example), poor dressing (seriously, someone who pays attention to how they dress and is ok at it is not a nerd), and perhaps most importantly, a complete blind spot to how you come across to the opposite sex. This last trait separates out the true nerds from the 'fake' nerds who just exude a nerdy persona for the hipster or ironic quality of it.
So, who still thinks they're a true nerd? I hardly think any stripper ever could truly be one -- it just clashes with the requirements of the job.
