Techie girls and dating

I don’t consider myself super-smart or being a techie/geek girl (Ssh, don’t tell anyone but I do know how write code and put together a computer...), but I think Hugh MacLeod is on to something here:

Females are generally not encouraged by society to be super-smart, at least, not overtly. And ESPECIALLY not in the techie/geeky super-smart way.

So as a result, by the time these super-smart young girl geeks have grown up to be women, society will have managed to inject them with all sorts of serious self-esteem issues. Which rarely comes in handy in the mate-choosing department.

No it’s not, and I find it highly intriguing that instead knowing her stuff makes a woman scary. Why is it that men are afraid of women who know more than they do? I see it more or less everyday and honestly I can’t stop wonder, because I’m just being me and I’m definitely not scary. Or am I?
