Of all the nerd sex symbol archetypes, “perpetually scowling girl whose only visible emotion is being vaguely annoyed at everything” perplexes me the most. Since when is grumpiness sexy?
Nothing says sexy like the person you’re interested in rolling their eyes at all of your advances!
Huh.
You’re proposing that the Grumpy Girl archetype is a geek sex icon because it provides a frame for socially maladjusted nerdboys to reinterpret women’s hostility and disinterest as an expression of affection?
