40. Why do people think that male nerds and geeks are gay?

Why do people think that male nerds and geeks are gay?

below is a google result

Is it because they suck at sports, or because they're soft spoken, or because they don't scratch themselves, burp the alphabet, drink until they pass out and work construction? Is it because they chose to work SMART and not HARD (I've never been into working physical labor for less than I could be working in a nice air conditioned laboratory making MORE money)
So...what's with this stereotype?

my question is,

The authors of the New Testament were Essenes? Pharises, Sadducees are mentioned but not Essenes because they were the
writers. Were Essennes also homosexual? The males liked to kiss each other on the lips.

It's kind of like the GOP accusing the Democrats of doing what the GOP does.
