Why don’t girl like nerdy things?

[MLGbreezy]

Now this isn’t all girls far from it, from what I’ve seen there’s been a lot of girls who’ve gotten into more nerdy things the last few years for whatever reason. But from what I’ve seen it’s definitely not the majority and I don’t really get it tbh. I’ve heard it all from females when it comes to video games or super hero’s comic books or anime. You’re weird if you watch that stuff or it’s childish or it’s boring. It’s honestly pretty annoying and frustrating cause if you’re a fan of any of these types of media you know that it’s better then majority of entertainment on tv or streaming. Especially in story telling, I feel like it’s gotta be ignorance tbh that and lack of open mindedness done girls will watch just cause there boyfriend is a fan but won’t really give it a chance. I don't know why all the hate ladies?

That’s just your experience. What do you consider nerdy? I prefer books to movies, and I also love reading psychology books apart from classics… isn’t that nerdy?

I can understand that you want to connect with women who have the same interests as you. Why don’t you try dating apps? You’re still young, and I can assure you that there are women out there who would not consider your interests “childish”. I would only do so IF you neglect all your priorities and responsibilities to play video games. Notice that there’s a big “IF” there.

Anyone can play video games, read comics and enjoy anime. There is no set time limit to abandon your interests. If any girl judges you for who you are, maybe they’re not someone you should be dating.

This isn’t a dating question and it hasn’t been my experience that I’ve been with girls who dislike that stuff. Even if they didn’t that’s their choice and I’m not gonna judge them for it. To each his own. This was a general question for all types of woman on why MOST woman in general not just in the dating sphere aren’t into comics , anime or video games. I said nerdy things cause those are usually considered nerdy by most.

[MLGbreezy]

I also already know that not all woman feel the same as I literally said it in the question explanation. The question is why is it the general consensus among most girls that they don’t like that stuff.

[WonderBell99]

Many of my girl friends are into anime and comics

[MLGbreezy]

Let me put it this why would you say the majority of girls are into anime or the majority of guys?

[WonderBell99]

I’m not sure about that. Many of my guy friends are not as into anime as they are into video games.

I don't know I think some care way too much about what others will think about them for liking nerd stuff. Some generally are not into it though. I'm a huge fan of anime and gaming and have come across some girls into that stuff. Most are already taken. You want a girl who is into it all or just cool with you being into it?

Nerd stuff has to get more popular first or have celebrities endorse it before some women will even consider it.

What you said here though is facts: "It’s honestly pretty annoying and frustrating cause if you’re a fan of any of these types of media you know that it’s better then majority of entertainment on tv or streaming. Especially in story telling"

Big facts, anime is better than most show on TV and have much deeper and well written stories. I feel people are missing out so I don't trip much but it would be cool if even more people were interested.

Okay I think everyone is taking the question far to black and white. Generally speaking most guys are into anime while most girls aren’t. You’ll usually find more guys talk about the latest one piece or dragon ball movie then woman. That’s not yo say woman aren’t at all but it’s mostly a male dominated sphere. And that’s why I asked the question. From girls just average randoms usually what I’ve heard from them is they find it boring or childish. That’s why I said it’s ignorance cause I’ve had girls who’ve watched anime and freakin twilight tell me that anime was corny and twilight was a freakin master piece. So I wanna know is it just or a a girl thing or is it
Ignorance or a lack of female rep in those genres.

I think it's a bit of both but also for those who tried they just didn't find or wasn't introduced to the right show or game

[NathanDavis]

yep, that is just your limited personal experience... not an accurate representation of reality as a whole

and it's not like all men are into videogames or comics either, they're also a fraction of a whole, like many other things

[kylee2437]

Just because you have interest, doesn’t mean others need to also. Baseball is a well known game everywhere, and I know a lot of people that think it’s boring while others enjoy it. Why worry about the ones that don’t like it instead of connecting to those that do like it?

[JDavid25]

From his POV he's wants to connect with more girls who likes what he likes but he is hard pressed to find many.. That's why he's asking..

[kylee2437]

@Jdavid25 yes I get that, however people are allowed to have different interests

[JDavid25]

Of course.. I guess he is asking why do girls seem to have a slight disdain for the really geeky stuff.. He doesn't meet enough who can at least appreciate what he does and not have a slight ridicule of it.

[kylee2437]

JDavid25 he most likely is going for women that aren’t even into that in the first place. Geeky things are literally a trend right now so

[JDavid25]

Yeah that's the conclusion I came to also.. Plenty of cute girls into anime and somewhat video games.. But especially anime..

[HollyK21]

I’m glad that you were sure to mention “from your experience”, because from mine this is definitely inaccurate lol. I have to take your age into account though, at 23 you haven’t had a lot of experience. I mean hell the last 2 years you’ve been locked down in pandemic.

[JDavid25]

There's aot of girls who likes nerdy things.. Not a lot of women are into comics in the first place, even though that's a niche noticeable female audience.. But a lot like anime.. Cutes ones too.. You just have to know where to find them..

You said it, it is childish.
