No, I’m assuming that similar personalities fantasize about similar thingspace-clusters of types of girls, and that they are less likely to or less often fantasize about variations or differences from the center of this cluster proportionally to said variations’ distance from it.
In plainspeak: I think “loves being in the kitchen and making you a sandwich” is conceptually far enough from “has tatoos, is rebellious and plays MMOs all day” that geeks would rarely fantasize about it, given the assumption that the latter is what they fantasize most about and that the more different it is from that ideal, the less likely they are to fantasize about it.
Other described traits I reason with in the same manner, with the exception of wanting sex, where I evaluate it as independent of geek-ness; most males tend to like this regardless of geekness, and the types who don’t don’t seem particularly under- or over-represented among geeks or nerds to my knowledge.
Or… was assuming this. As I mentioned, there were some updates made following this discussion, and it’s been a while since then; other events have also allowed me to update related things in different directions.
You’re assuming they only fantasize about one type of girl.
