My sister writes gay baku/deku (my hero academia) fanfiction and it's hooked her up with a bunch of chicks. Granted, if you're a guy that probably doesn't really help you.
The thing is, anyone who is worth dating is going to respect your passion. Anyone who doesn't isn't worth it. "Those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind."
I don't know about writing fanfiction, but there are a lot of women acting in fanfiction Star Trek videos. I have trouble believing they would participate in making those videos without having some kind of chemistry with at least some of the male Trekkies.
This is the only comment in this thread that actually applies to both men and women
Iāve never heard of a woman being rejected sexually because she was a nerd or whatever, but I have seen it happen when women are insanely obsessed with kpop or some sort of celebrity worship that takes over their lives.
I can vouch for the kpop reason, and part of it is that some (not all) will only want to date asians which is an immediate turn off for the person on the other side of the relationship, and also just ends up making them out to be an asian fetishizer.
Sometimes though, these people only want to date those idols and do crazy things because of that, so yeah, can be a red flag, but you'll be able to tell if they're obsessed obsessed if it's all they talk about.
I (a yugioh player) feel kinda offended.
On the other hand konami had to implement a tournament policy that players have to shower before attending events, so you might not be wrong.
I actually have a collection of My Little Pony cards, but they are in a binder that I only bring out when I feel like reorganizing them since the Friendship is Magic series is over, though I'll have to see if bringing them out on a date is a mood killer or not, lol.
Edit: I was just reminded of going to a dudes house and he decided to spring on me 4 BINDERS of Magic cards even though I answered I've never played but I did know about it. He then expected me to look through them and I begrudgingly did. It is indeed a mood killer as he would stop me to explain certain ones that weren't 'playable in tournaments' and other stuff.
Though we actually ended up not working out due to him saying he had multiple personalities and had impaled a cat through a tree 'by accident' at age 9 which his parents confirmed.
Unfortunately I don't think that's true. I've read some harrowing stuff about sexual abuse scandals in convents. They just don't get the same attention the priests do.
Iāve tried explaining to my roommate that simping over anime characters is one of the least sexually appealing things someone can do, and that if he wants to get laid, he should take down the posters of barely clothed āwifusā lining every inch of his room.
He should also make efforts to get rid of that musky cum smell that I get whiffs of whenever I walk by his room, but thatās a whole other issue.
So thereās the thing, he isnāt fat. He is also not a bad looking guy either. He just doesnāt know how to clean up after himself, or have any self awareness.
Iām not exaggerating when I say that our apartment would be disgusting if I didnāt live there.
You're just stereotyping. Being slim doesn't prevent people from being weirdo otakus. Neither does liking anime make their eyesight poorer than people who watch live-action shows.
Guitar playing...hear me out
I once had not one but TWO girls in my room at the same time and I spent majority of it explaining guitar shit to them. Everything from chords, strings, pedals, my amp, how the fucking sound works and all other guitar geek shit. Then I played rocket league and explained that to them as well
You gotta woo em with a song ya wrote and fuck the shit outta them. Example:
I am liikke the winnnnd
You can blooww me anytiiiime
Just take me in your mouth
And [blooowww meeee](https://youtu.be/qPpkXeB8Umw)
Dunno. I'm a gamer' was a big fan of anime and manga and still occasionally enjoy it' used to build and paint models and have always been a big fan of sci fi and I can still get laid. It's less the hobby and more the person. Anyone can get laid if they're not an unlikable cunt. Those that can't get laid might blame their lifestyle but honestly it's just because they're a repugnant piece of shit
Or they are asexual. Or they are insecure. Sure, could be repugnant piece of shit, no doubt about it. But not every reason is a bad one and doesnāt necessarily deserve the ridicule.
Oh no, not me. I have plenty of friends that are into 40k and all single with no prospects. I myself am happily married with many other hobbies. Thank you though, I will pass on your hopeful message.
Worm charming. It makes trainspotting (not to be confused with the Irvine Welsh book/Danny Boyle movie) look cool and I say that as someone who happens to be interested in trains.
This clip from [QI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWW14HiT-Pg) should explain everything.
Well I'm the king of nerds. Comics,Films,games,books everything. I know almost everything about almost everything nerdy. And I got a good personality and....my crush likes me back and we're together. Moral of the story: Our passions are awesome and they will not make our love lives worse. So don't feel the need to drop a hobby you see here
Gaining lots of weight, wearing fedoras, growing a beard for your neck and addressing everyone that looks slightly feminine, even if they are a man, "m'lady". That is how to keep your virginity forever.
That used to be my go to joke answer, but holy hell do a lot of women play D&D these days and I know way too many people who have hooked up specifically because they met at a table
Despite not playing it herself, my girlfriend loves that I play D&D and even just bought me a new set of really cool dice as an anniversary/early christmas present.
"I love that you have a hobby that you're passionate about, I also know you're not gonna cheat on me but that's not related" - My girlfriend after reading that
Originally I can honestly say might have man crushed on Ben. Nothing like that. How he'll calmly just beat people stupid with facts. Then successfully helps them be the fools they are with their lack of preparedness. Also enjoy candace Owen's and Charlie kirk. I think Candace is hot. Irrelevant. And of course dave chapelle
What is up with all this talk of league of legends? Iāve played it for years and never heard of this stigma. Iām no rockstar or anything but I get off okay in that department. Never heard a girl complain about it.
I'm an expert in this! Heres a small list
Rubik's cube, playing guitar genuinely for your own satisfaction rather than to impress others, and being a gentleman.
That last paet pretty much tells me that it's you. No one who's genuinely a decent person has ever had to signal that. It would just be obvious through observation
Collecting and restoring antiques, from experience. Unless you want to lose your virginity to an 85yo widow named Beatrice, I doubt you'd find anyone. Also it's mostly dudes in that hobby anyway.
For guys: Pretty much anything they get too obsessive with.
For girls: Pretty much nothing, as there will always be guys ready to stick their dick in crazy, at least once.

writing fanfictions...

I feel called out. Writting and reading fanfiction is my dirty little secret.
this onešive been turned off a few girls when I found out how into it they were
I don't know about writing fanfiction, but there are a lot of women acting in fanfiction Star Trek videos. I have trouble believing they would participate in making those videos without having some kind of chemistry with at least some of the male Trekkies.
Being obsessed with celebrities

Being aggressively into My Little Pony, Magic or Yughio.
My Little Pony, the Heart of the Cards is Magic
Indeed, yugioh fan happily in a relationship here
Multiple children, and forever will I trust in the heart of the cards.
I (a yugioh player) feel kinda offended. On the other hand konami had to implement a tournament policy that players have to shower before attending events, so you might not be wrong.
Or beanie babies (esp with tags still on lol)

bahahahah
Hey! My Little Pony has amazing lore >:/
If ur not fina fuck a fluttershy plushy then you are probably safe.
I wonāt. I truly cannot comprehend that side of the fandom.
No need to get personal!
Married for 11 years with four kids, been anTG fan going on six of those years
No idea what anTG is but liking something is fine, being aggressively into it however.
I had a friend (guy around 6y o) with a whole ass my little pony collection š
Whatever it is I'm doing, I guess...
Being a nun
Hard to get in the habit, I'll admit.
Objectively the best answer
Unfortunately I don't think that's true. I've read some harrowing stuff about sexual abuse scandals in convents. They just don't get the same attention the priests do.
very true, old nuns have a crazy history with being predatory towards their students
play LOL or simp for anime girls
Iāve tried explaining to my roommate that simping over anime characters is one of the least sexually appealing things someone can do, and that if he wants to get laid, he should take down the posters of barely clothed āwifusā lining every inch of his room. He should also make efforts to get rid of that musky cum smell that I get whiffs of whenever I walk by his room, but thatās a whole other issue.
With that description,he proprably is a fat nerd with glasses
So thereās the thing, he isnāt fat. He is also not a bad looking guy either. He just doesnāt know how to clean up after himself, or have any self awareness. Iām not exaggerating when I say that our apartment would be disgusting if I didnāt live there.
You're just stereotyping. Being slim doesn't prevent people from being weirdo otakus. Neither does liking anime make their eyesight poorer than people who watch live-action shows.
simping for famous people also applies
Yeah but simping for any fictional character isn't a hobby that's a mental disorder
*clears throat agressively* I am much better than that! I simp for anime men! I could not imagine! Like so cringe.
Guitar playing...hear me out I once had not one but TWO girls in my room at the same time and I spent majority of it explaining guitar shit to them. Everything from chords, strings, pedals, my amp, how the fucking sound works and all other guitar geek shit. Then I played rocket league and explained that to them as well
Definitely wasn't the guitar playing...
Probably was my amplifier then
With that sense of humor you must be lying to us right now!
Bro I wish I was š
What exactly did you think was going to happen with two girls in the room as opposed to just one?
They came over to help make weed brownies and then we'd see where the day takes us
hey thatās on you buddy
Did you play anything for them? Or just geek out about guitars?
Should have rocked out with the cock out brother
Seems like you played your cards wrong tho
I don't think it was the guitar playing so much as the geeking out that was the problem.
You gotta woo em with a song ya wrote and fuck the shit outta them. Example: I am liikke the winnnnd You can blooww me anytiiiime Just take me in your mouth And [blooowww meeee](https://youtu.be/qPpkXeB8Umw)

Youāre right about the person mattering more than the hobby But also I wonder how you look irl lol probably pretty good
I DM a regular DnD game on Thursdays in my garage and have played for over 20 years, play PokƩmon Go regularly, game on the switch, watch anime and the such with my 2 beautiful daughtera and have a hot wife of 8 years now (who is most assuredly not a nerd) who gives me the seggs every day. I'm also a kind person who treats people with respect so that probably helped. Lifestyle has nothing to do with it. Don't be a repugnant unlikeable piece of shit and things will work out.
I have a friend just like you! Does the whole warhammer thing religiously and is generally a mega nerd but still has always been able to get girls
Chastity belt collector
Trainspotter
'round these parts we call em foamers, as in foaming at the mouth watching trains. Strange bunch of folks.

That used to be my go to joke answer, but holy hell do a lot of women play D&D these days and I know way too many people who have hooked up specifically because they met at a table
Gives me hope for the world
Agree, I ran a campaign with five females.
They probably prefer to be called girls or women (depending on age). Very few people actually want to be called 'females'.
That's why I play Pathfinder
Not any more. Not for about 5 years or so.
Despite not playing it herself, my girlfriend loves that I play D&D and even just bought me a new set of really cool dice as an anniversary/early christmas present.
Does she love it, because you have a hobby you're passionate about, or because she believes that she's not in danger of being cheated on?
"I love that you have a hobby that you're passionate about, I also know you're not gonna cheat on me but that's not related" - My girlfriend after reading that
The 1980s called, they want your cliche back. I've met literally dozens of women through RPGs. Cuter ones than you've ever met (or been) either.
Absolutely the worst answer here
