[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The catch is that many are socially awkward. You may end up not only being a spouse, but also acting as their mother in some ways. That's a turn off for some women.

STEM guys tend to be argumentative and have a hard time seeing others' points of view, especially if they deem that you're not acting in a "rational" manner. Appeals to emotion don't work with them, even though life sometimes calls for that. All they understand is rationality.[/quote]

Agree with this 100%. I previously dated nerdy STEM guys, married a non-nerdy but technically STEM guy and am so much happier.  A lot of these guys like to think they are logical and rational but are often  extremely hypocritical. Often times they feel the need to be right about everything since their self-worth is built on being smart, which results in every disagreement in the relationship being your fault (never theirs).

In my experience, many of them are very emotionally immature and I believe being a good parent requires emotional maturity. [/quote]
