[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s wrong with being nerdy that it’s an excuse to hate someone? I know it’s off topic but I don’t get it. [/quote]

All the nerds on dcum are taking this personally :roll: 
In reality being a nerd covers for some unfortunate characteristics: socially awkwardness and lack of physical attractiveness, to name a few. I would also prefer for my child not to be a nerd.
In this particular case, i think OP's eldest is calling his brother a nerd only because he realizes that the middle one doesn't really have to do much to be accepted: which for him is not well deserved. They just have different temperaments and probably values. I can see it being hard for any parent.[/quote]
Haha I came to the US when I was senior in HS and since I was a good student I guess I was automatically assigned a nerd label... which I know many View negatively but I was always ok with it... found myself some nerdy friends and a cute boyfriend. 
So I seriously don’t understand. I thought it was just a social group like aggies for example... another group in HS... 
But yeah I get it how a 16 yo can be obsessed over someone being or not being a nerd... I think I was mature for my age. [/quote]
