Neo-Nerdom
Glamorized geeks are hailed as celebrities, redefining pop culture
Implications - Media that was once populated by traditionally beautiful pop culture figures are being taken over by “neo-nerds,” whose quirky qualities are increasingly being considered beautiful by the general population. The neo-nerd is a strange yet successful person who (unlike their prototypical nerd predecessor) is not only accepted by, but hailed as, a superior in society. Today’s nerds have become symbols in society that question the traditional meaning of “cool.”
