[edit] Girl Geek

We don't need articles to explain that a compound word "A B" means "A B that is an A". Unfortunately, this article doesn't even reach that standard, instead going on an unsupported path of "girl geeks have people skills". Of course, to be fair, I don't see how this article could be objective beyond "A girl geek is a geek who lacks Y chromosomes", so delete. — Lomn | Talk / RfC 15:27, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

• Merge with Geek Make alot more sense really theres not enough information here to make merging hard. User:Redconverse
• Delete non-notable, quasi-dicdef. Xoloz 16:41, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete Neologism. No evidence this term is ever used in a general sense particularly in a manner consistent with the "definition" provided here.--Isotope23 18:22, 5 October 2005 (UTC) -
• KeepUsed widely for organising Geek Dinners for Women. see http://thehughpage/London_girl_geek_dinner
• Merge with Geek - hey, I could see someone looking it up. -- BD2412 ^talk 03:19, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
• Merge with Geek - I agree 71.69.130.255
• Delete I think this entry's unnecessary and stereotypical. It only shoves all real girl geeks (which are really called "Geek Girls" or "Geek Grrls", by the way) into a little category. sarysa 02:21, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
• change update the details to accurately reflect the true meaning of girl geek in todays society. The phrase has been coined amongst the IT industry & marketing industry, particularly after blogHer and London Girl Geek Dinner.
• Delete sloppily written, stereotypical! A pointless entry. As Lomn notes, no need for articles explaining compound terms such as these, especially when they are so poorly explained and based on no evidence whatsoever.
• Merge with Geek, redirect "Girl Geek" to the merged page. Bryce 18:08, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
• redirect. There is nothing to merge but original research and POV. mikka (t) 01:15, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

-- Don't even bother merging it, please. Why do we need a "female" definition to a unisex word? That this even exists strikes me as sexist and even offensive, being both female and a geek. I don't label my fellow male geeks as "boy geeks." Please delete this article.

Never heard of pregnant boys in a "unisex world". there is something of brain damage to consider the word "female" as offensive.
