Sexy Geeks
I'm watching Paul Krugman right now on CSpan's "Booknotes".

He is such a geek -- but a sexy geek.

The more he talks, the sexier he becomes.

Who's your sexy geek?

1. I am only attracted to geeky men
I can think of many, but off the top of my head...

Al Franken
Dan Perkins (Tom Tomorrow)
Josh Marshall
Jon Stewart

On the female side, I'd have to mention Nancy Skinner and Eleanor Clift

3. Oh God, me too!
I'll take an average-looking man with geeky intelligence any day of the week. I love their bizarre sense of humor. There are things my husband says that makes me die laughing that NO ONE else gets. It's that dry English humor... nothing nicer than a geeky Brit for a husband!!

Here's one for y'all: Carl Sagan! I adored him.

4. Definitely!
I'm married to a super-geek, and I wouldn't have him any other way.

Also, I too loved Carl Sagan. He passed away just down the street from my house, sadly, while getting cancer therapy.

62. My husband is so geeky
that his browser history has only Apple Mac sites (you know, where the porn should be). And he's hot.

6. As far as I'm concerned ...
Clay Aiken is the sexiest geek of all time! :loveya:




I love him even more than my other favorite sexy geek: Barry Manilow!




I think I'll go hide while you all laugh at "BattyDem: The Pathetic Geek Worshiper"

8. I have a totally irrational crush on Ben Stiller.
Dunno if my other crush qualifies as a geek (more a flake really) but I've got the hots for Barry Zito. If I could figure out how to post pics here, I'd oblige y'all.

9. Michael Shanks
Well, he plays one on Stargate:SG-1. He plays Daniel Jackson. Speaking of other science fiction geeks, I was in love with Andric on Doctor Who and cried about it for a couple weeks after I saw the episode where he died (I was in junior high.).
Oh, yeah, my husband is a mega geek too. He doesn't really look like one, but if you talk to him, you find out how geeky he is.

22. When I first saw him on the CBS morning show,
Back in the '80s, I thought Harry Smith was sexy. I loved the glasses, and he has a great voice.

I married one of my own -- talked him into going back to glasses, when we met he mostly wore contacts. His laugh was what capped it for me, though.

I'm kind of partial to Chris Murphy and Patrick Pentland, from Sloan.

30. I prefer to think of geek as a complement
Ever man I've ever been attracted to has certain geek-like tendencies. My husband loves math and sci-fi. Before that, I even went out with my share of a few comic book geeks, but my common theme is men who others might refer to as geeks and I'm probably a geek too (except that I'm not good at math), but I've never looked the part really. I was always more a geek trapped in a cheerleader's body.
I think it's a daddy thing. My dad is a brillant guy and I was always really close with him when I was little. Because of that, I kind of expect a certain level of braininess on my list of "must haves". The other stuff is important, but secondary.

any of them really but I do prefer dark hair, dark eyes and dark complexion. There's a Billie Holiday song I just adore, "Them there eyes." No I don't work in a hospital, if I did there'd be a lot of hanky panky going on.
