我们的传统观念中，一直都有“男理工，女人文”这样一个角色划分。在现实生活中，学理工出身的男士的确不少，却经常因为没有生活情趣或者不懂制造浪漫而被女朋友埋怨。不过，在近几年，这个趋势好像有点逆转了。“理工男”似乎在一夜之间成为了万千女性追逐的目标。他们到底有哪些特征呢？

Science geek refers to a group of highly intelligent men who majored in science and technology. They boast extensive scientific knowledge, love high-tech inventions and challenging computer games, and are curious about life. However, they may lack some common sense in regular relationship with other people.

“理工男”指学理工科出身又拥有高智商的那么一群男士。他们的理工科知识面很广，热爱高科技发明，喜欢挑战电脑游戏，同时对生活充满好奇。不过，他们在人际交往方面似乎缺少一些必要的常识。

The heroes in the American TV drama "The Big Bang Theory" might be the most typical representatives of this group. They play 3D chess, create Row-Sham-Bow that is much more difficult than the normal one，and do various experiments that are totally unknown to the world.

美剧《生活大爆炸》中的几位主角应该是“理工男”群体的最典型代表。他们玩立体国际象棋，玩增加了N个难度级别的剪刀石头布，做各种莫名奇妙的试验。
