There once was a time when women with mud matted-hair looked for a neanderthal man that could club a saber-toothed wart hog like creature, one that could literally bring home the prehistoric bacon.
I'd like to think we ladies have evolved away from the "unga bunga" phase. Though, there are still some women who are attracted to strictly athletes and meat heads. Perhaps the crushing of Budweiser bottles across the forehead symbolizes some sort of extraordinary protective strengths.
For me though, nothing is sexier than a man who can talk physics, psychology and in general, demonstrate superior intellect over his fellow men. Really, only a small percentage of beef cakes will go on to make millions in the NFL. A man that can geek it out, in my opinion has much more promise. Before I catch flack from all the feminists out there, I'm not just talking about monetary gains. Its the ability to hold a conversation that captures my interests, challenges what I think I know and if we're considering carrying on the human race, I would prefer egg-head children.
Though, I don't know if the clothing makes the man, there is something attractive about that quirky psusdo nerd style. So here is an ode to my favorite geeky guys and their eccentric styles.
"Just like working in the studio or being with the girl I love. Things just need to fit naturally. Fashion's more about feel than science." Pharell told Esquire. Its been some time since making the magazine's "21 Best Dressed Men in the World" in 2005
Before Kayne West started wearing bow ties, dark-rimmed glasses and proclaiming himself style star, there was Pharrell. You can thank him for bringing Polo shirts, cable-knit sweaters and non-ass baring pants into hip-hop.
Right now, some of you might be saying, Pharrell is a producer and musician. How does that qualify him to be listed here? Well, aside from the fact that he's the go-to successful hit maker for some of the world's biggest names in pop music like Jay Z, Snoop Dog, Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake, according to his wikipedia bio, he is a fan of Carl Sagan, astronomer, astrochemist and Pulitzer Prize winning non fiction writer. Oh, and he even attended band camp during high school summer break. *cough* Geek *cough*

Dr. Who
I don't know much about the actor, David Tennant, who plays Dr. Who in the BBC's same titled television series about a time traveling alien. His space ship is a 1950's style London police box. Is it weird that I'm getting a excited after typing those last few sentences? Anyway, most of the time I have no f*cking idea whats going on during the hour long adventures, but it doesn't matter because Im distracted by the the squirrely peculiar doctor. Its not the actor himself, but the odd, messy-haired character wearing tailored tweeds, ties and raggedy ivory Converse All-Stars, delivering lines such as "I battle with monsters."
