I’ve been to a few cons in my day- my first when I was barely knee high and my most recent just today with a stop in at WonderCon 2012 in Anaheim. Personally, I hope to be showing up at conventions for all time because not only is it a haven for geekery and pop [...]

Our heroine’s “Oh, You Sexy Geek!” panel at San Diego Comic-Con was a big hit – and a big controversy, but that comes as no surprise. There was NO way for this topic to make everybody happy. None.
Here are a few of the many things people had to say online. We’ve left out [...]

Next Thursday, our “Oh, You Sexy Geek!” panel opens Comic-Con. Yeah, yeah, there are these “Ringer” and “Twilight” and other things that morning too, but I’m not in those.
Does displaying the sexiness of fangirls benefit or demean them? When geek girls show off, are they liberating themselves or pandering to men? Do some “fake fangirls” [...]

Are “hot nerds” bogus birds?
When asked what she enjoys, Miss USA contestant Alyssa Campanella – who went on to win the title – answered that she’s a true “history geek,” obsessed with the Stuart and Tudor era. “I watch Games of Thrones, I watched Camelot – I know those are fantasy but I also watch [...]
