Very honest and clearly written article, thanks mst. I'm truly puzzled by how popular stereotypes are in the western culture. I mean what does someone job/hobby have anything to do with their everything else? Let's just stop here for a second and realise that whenever we refer to a group of people with a job title, say, 'programmers' we are talking about hundreds of thousands if not millions of people. And there is no way you could fit that many people under the umbrella of your single statement. In the culture I originate from they are absolutely non-existent. The word 'nerd' doesn't even exist in my first language and if you ask people in the street to tell you about the attributes of 'programmers' they wont know what to say. The closest word to nerd that we have is 'smart'. The same goes with most other jobs.
