The article does have some validity. My girlfriend seems to find the geeky sides of me are also linked to being more caring, intelligent, open to listen to her, and devoted than most men she found on the market before we met. I've heard variants of what was mentioned in the article before, in other articles.
Similarly, several studies have pointed out that for dating, women prefer the hot, studly guy, but when it comes to marriage, end up with the less ripped, less outgoing, more serious kind of guy, who makes a better provider and marriage partner.
