There's been a lot of discussion recently about what constitutes a \"real\" geek - in particular, a real geek girl<\/b>. Namely, how do you tell the actual geeks from the ones who are just faking it to get attention now that \"geek\" is cool. Well, not cool - popular. Being cool is the antithesis of geek. But while that's a valid question, it's weird that it's only being applied to women; why is it only geek girls<\/a> who get accused of being fake, not geek boys? It's not at all hard to tell the poseurs from the pillars in any community, whether they've got a penis or a pussy; so why waste your time trying to tear someone down?<\/p>\n

For those wondering, that image is Welsh model Seren Gibson, from the June 2012 issue of Loaded<\/i> magazine. You can see more of her (and we mean that literally) in the photoshoot if you look around, but this was the best shot of the toys. (Yes, we chose the one with the most toys. Why? Because we're geeks. Not that we've ever had to be subject to questions about our cred.) She also recently appeared in the video for Hadoken's \"Bad Signal\":<\/p>\n
