Sometimes I think that geek women are not always seen as earning their geek cred. Sure, you put a comic, horn rimmed glasses and a quirky graphic tee on a guy and they are geek chic. You give those to a woman, and they seem not to match. Obsessions like knowing lots of baseball stats or superhero strengths are quirky on a guy, but you have a women geek out over who would win in a fight: Voldemort or Vader; and it just seems jarring.
So, cheers to us, femme geeks.
Cheers to smart geek women across the world.
May we always win trivial pursuit, our computers hum blissfully, our sci fi obsessions always spark us, and our thick glasses always be alluring.
Cheers to Willow Rosenberg, Winifred Burkle, Anne Shirley, Velma, Hermoine Granger, Jo March!
Cheers to us!
