If you are a Stereotypical Nerd and/or geek, then according to damn near every work of fiction in existence, you have never gotten laid, very likely haven't gotten to first base, may have never ever stepped up to bat — and quite possibly have never so much as wandered within a mile of the ballpark. Now, this does have some real life basis, in that some nerds and geeks do lack some social skills, and take up unusual interests as a way to fill the gap in their lives (or, more unfortunately, fail to develop social skills because of said interests), or simply find them more interesting than exercising social skills. Though some might just be asexual. This trope can apply to female nerds as easily as male nerds, but thanks to the Double Standard, the males are far more likely to find unwholesome outlets for their unexpressed sexuality, virginity notwithstanding. Also, because males are expected to make the first move, female nerds are not at a disadvantage due to shyness or social ineptness. In fact, male nerds have just as much chance of being the Casanova Wannabe as any other type of male character. Some males (and a rare female or two) may try to deny their virginity, out of fear of losing face, but thanks to their nerdy exteriors, they are unlikely to be believed by other characters, if they even have the social graces to spin a convincing lie in the first place. Another possible reason that female nerds are less likely to be virgins is because All Men Are Perverts and A Man Is Always Eager in Fiction Land and thus couldn't care less about what a woman's hobbies are, as long as she's letting him have sex with her. Women on the other hand are often depicted as far more discriminating and will reject a partner whose hobbies aren't "cool" enough. Hence the use of terms like "girl repellent"note or the less G-Rated version "pussy repellent" to describe nerdy things. There is also a general perception that a nerd's level of nerdiness is inversely proportional to their chances of getting laid, which is a big reason that Even Nerds Have Standards. This also means that some nerds will deny at least some aspects of their nerdiness. Though, the reverse belief also exists: instead of believing that nerdy hobbies prevent you from getting laid, some people believe that the only reason people have nerdy hobbies is because they can't get laid to begin with, are miserable because of this, and therefore seek a form of escapism from said misery (most likely because that's what they do themselves, so they assume everyone else does too). In non-mainstream works, this trope shows up less frequently, although some cases are deliberate aversions and some are just Author Appeal. If the nerds are the main characters, there is a high chance they won't be virgins by the end of the movie/book/first season of the show, because virginity is a tragic flaw and heroes always overcome their flaws. Make that a very, very high chance if said heroes are male. Note this doesn't prevent a Nerdgasm. Compare You Need to Get Laid. Contrast Nerds Are Sexy, Geeky Turn-On. Nerds Are Naïve is closely related however, that trope focuses on nerds and geeks being portrayed as lacking Street Smarts and ignorant to all things outside of their Geek Reference Pool, especially sex and romance. Also related is Nerds Are Pervs, in which nerdy characters are depicted as sex-obsessed, typically with deviant preferences and lecherous instincts, often because they've never gotten laid. |

The 40-Year-Old Virgin: The virgin protagonist collects fantasy (comic book style) toys, and has a good understanding of technology; this doesn't necessarily imply 'geek' therefore 'virgin' but it is consistent with that view. But the film is also a deconstruction of Sex as Rite-of-Passage, so it's probably a subversion. Also, the protagonist is conventionally attractive and has good social skills, further subverting the mainstream nerd stereotype. | |

Subverted in Sho-shan y la Dama Oscura. Almost all of the adults on the book are nerds on their own way (Except Kadiri and her nuns, Sasuke, Placida and Kokoa) but it's implied that all of those nerds have also an active sex life. | |

Late Night With Conan O'Brien made this joke a lot. It went so far that, one year, at Comic Con Triumph The Insult Comic Dog went around interviewing the attendees and seeing how much they really knew about sex, including Triumph holding a picture of a vagina and asking the men in attendance to identify it. No one did. | |

Bones: Played with in the case of Zach Addy, whom everyone initially assumes is a virgin. He tells them quite frankly that he has, and does, in fact, have sex. At one point, he asks the psychologist Sweets why everyone thinks/assumes he is a virgin. | |

Prom Wars: The intelligent but non-athletic Selby students are mostly dateless and even though the prom date offer doesn't come with the promise of sex, several of them are hopeful that things will progress and lead to them losing their virginities, although as a face-saving Last-Second Word Swap they try to claim that it's the girls' virginities they're hoping will cease to exist. | |

Community: Jeff Winger jokes that the math club has improved so dramatically at paintball that they must have been practicing... while everyone else was having sex. Subverted with Abed, in that the group automatically assumes he's never had sex and doesn't know how to approach women (all with some justification) and so attempt to set him up. In turns out he does just fine due to a supreme confidence in himself. |

Revenge of the Nerds plays with this in varying degrees. Clearly some of the nerds are out of their depth sexually, but Gilbert seems fine at attracting nerdy girls, Lewis comes off as a sexual maestro, and Booger clearly has enough experience to take an illegitimate child scare seriously in the fourth movie. | |

In What We Do in the Shadows (2019), a mockumentary about a group of vampires living in modern-day Staten Island, Nandor tells his familiar Guillermo to bring some virgins for them to feast upon with their guest the Baron. Guillermo finds a high concentration at a LARP event, and lures two of them back to the house by offering to show them his master's medieval weapons. | |

Supernatural: Sam has been body-swapped with a teenage boy and is looking through the kid's stuff. Subverted with Charlie, a semi-recurring character who LARPs and loves Harry Potter among other nerdy endeavours, and is a lesbian Pornomancer that can bed pretty much any woman she looks at, even once crossing the species boundary and making out with a fairy. She probably also banged Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz, but that's not confirmed. Also both brothers are both a little bit nerdy, Dean constantly dropping references and Sam being a former law student, and seem to have no trouble getting laid. It probably helps that they don't look remotely nerdy. In one episode, Sam and Bobby both make fun of Dean for not having heard of H. P. Lovecraft or any of his works. Dean then shoots back, "Sorry, I guess I was too busy having sex with women." Of course, Even Nerds Have Standards, and later in the same episode, Bobby is talking to a guy who collects Lovecraft's private correspondence letters and snarks, "You must be catnip to the ladies". |

In the Red Dwarf epsisode "Polymorph II: Emohawk", this is the implict joke in the fact Duane Dibbley, the Man From Uncool, insists on carrying a condom because "you never know". It's also the case that Rimmer has some pretty nerdy hobbies (he likes telling war stories about his Risk campaigns, and "engine-spotting" on the ship's diesel decks) and his only sexual encounter was with a woman who was concussed and called him "Norman". | |

The Walking Dead: Glenn Rhee seems completely baffled and unsure what to do when Maggie Greene offers to have sex with him, and it's all but stated she had to take the lead on their first time due to his lack of experience. Eugene Porter has come to meet Stephanie, a woman he fell in love with over the radio, and is interrogated by General Mercer before he can enter the Commonwealth. Trying desperately to convince Mercer he's not a threat and is being honest, he explains his whole story with Stephanie, and resorts to confessing that he's still a virgin. This gets Mercer, who'd been The Stoic overseeing his screening, to blink in a bewildered fashion. Then Eugene says he was hoping Stephanie would be the one to change his status as a virgin, and this gets Mercer's composure to break further, but convinced him he's being legit. Later in the season, it's revealed that Mercer is actually the older brother of "Stephanie", meaning Eugene just told his crush's brother he was trying to sleep with her. |

Gary from Ménage à 3, although he does get laid eventually. A few times, even. And he later gains a reputation as a master of cunnilingus, so he has women literally lined up outside his door much of the time. Unfortunately most of them just want to use him like a glorified vibrator so he doesn't get much out of this reputation other than a sore jaw, and he's too much of an Extreme Doormat to say no. By the end of the comic’s run, though, Character Development has made him a more fully rounded and fulfilled human being. | |

Seinfeld inverts the trope and implies Virgins are Nerds. When men don't have sex, or stop having sex for a significant amount of time, the 99% of their brains that are always thinking about sex will start to function normally and boost their intelligence and thirst for knowledge significantly (George, for example, becomes an Omnidisciplinary Scientist within days and learns Portugese by accident). Women however, are the exact opposite, since they can get sex so easily that they take it for granted and normally never have to think about it at all, so their entire brains are functioning by default. If they go long enough without having sex, then they start thinking about it all the time and thus become stupider. | |

A rather subtle and possibly accidental instance of this trope occurs in Mass Effect if you decide to romance Liara, a shy, socially awkward scientist. At one point she states she has never done the "mind meld" asari equivalent of sex before, to which Shepard can ask incredulously, "Wait, you're a virgin?" | |

While not the bespectacled, awkward type, General Hospital's studious, med-school bound, class salutatorian Karen Wexler, is a virgin, as is her equally studious and med-school bound class valedictorian boyfriend Jason Quartermaine, in stark contrast to their sexier counterparts Brenda and Jagger who could care less about school, to the point that they eventually drop out of college and high school, respectively. | |

The Star Trek episode of Futurama mentions that in Earth's past, Trekkies, after the show became a worldwide religion, were executed by being thrown into a volcano because it was "the manner best befitting virgins." Considering how many of the show's staff are themselves Trekkies, nerds, or holders of advanced degrees, there was a definite Self-Deprecation vibe to the scene. | |

Que R.C.'s Spit Take when on a date together Sabrina asks him if he's a virgin and if he'd like to join her in the bedroom to change that. Both characters remain incredibly nerdy after the fact though with R.C. even going full on Otaku by starting to collect anime figurines. | |

The Cleveland Show: Cleveland takes Junior to a sci-fi convention, to show him what happens to guys that fail to lose their virginity. They ended up coming home with heaps of stuff from it. Another example from this show involves a cutaway gag about finding a rapist at a Star Trek convention. The police ask the crowd to raise their hands if they are not a virgin. The only person who does so is told he is under arrest. |

This is the implicit joke behind the planet of Hysperia in Star Trek: Lower Decks — it's a planet with dragons that got colonized by a bunch of Renaissance Fair nerds, and to take the throne, the heir has to have sex (ergo, losing their virginity will make them king of the nerds). Much to Lt. Commander Billups' annoyance, as he much prefers being in Starfleet and abdicated; his mother, Queen Paolana, has repeatedly attempted to get her son to get it on in the past, and attempts it again in "Where Pleasant Fountains Lie". | |

In a podcast, writer David S. Goyer asked, "How many people in the audience have heard of Martian Manhunter?" After some reaction from the audience, he asked, "How many people that raised their hands have ever been laid?" (That one of the architects of the DC Extended Universe expressed this view of the franchise's core audience did not go over well.) | |

Daria: Both Daria and her artsy best friend Jane end the series as virgins; of the other notable characters in their grade, the only one not implied to have sex is Upchuck. There was an episode where Daria and Tom almost have sex, but Daria can't go through with it. Interestingly inverted with Daria's popular, boy-crazy sister Quinn, who is implied to have a Paralyzing Fear of Sexuality. In fact, there's not really any indication that anyone in the Fashion Club has had sex. |

Enforced by The Angry Video Game Nerd in Angry Video Game Nerd: The Movie, who tells his protégé Cooper that true nerdhood means forsaking the pursuit of social interaction — especially dating and sex — for the pursuit of your chosen hobbies.

She later manages to find a sort-of boyfriend or two ... at least one of whom, Dale, is himself a rather nerdy WoW-playing virgin. The trope is later subverted, since as of this strip, where Marigold and Dale hook up. | |

Holmes normally covers the New York Knicks, so he is at a loss for words when he's sent to a League of Legends tournament since that's the first time he discovered that e-tournaments are a thing. When as he's interviewing, "S3XPANDA69", the captain of the winning team, a groupie comes into frame, and proclaims "I love you!" when he awkwardly asks if she'd like to go backstage, she enthusiastically asks if her friends can go too, when he says yes, he excuses himself and takes ten or so nerdy girls with him, leaving Lazlo even more confused. | |

Referenced in The Martian when the NASA senior staff are meeting to discuss a risky but viable plan to hasten Mark Watney's safe return to Earth, which the guy who thought it up has dubbed "Operation Elrond". Annie Montrose, Head of Media Relations and sometime Nerd Nanny, is the only person in the room who doesn't get the reference and has to have it explained to her by one of the others.note The film adaptation had some fun with this by having the man who played Boromir be the one to explain it. | |

Ruby in Sticky Dilly Buns is something of a nerd and clearly a virgin. Admittedly, she has significant issues in addition to her relatively subtle nerdiness. She does eventually get laid — and get over most of her problems — without sacrificing her true self; indeed, her boyfriend has cause to appreciate her nerdy impulse to analyze and understand everything, including his own oddities. | |

Openly subverted in The Word Weary. The main characters play Dungeons and Dragons and are open nerds, but have active sex lives. | |

Inverted in American Pie: the biggest nerds (band geeks) are also the sluttiest. | |

In The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System: Ren Zha Fanpai Zijiu Xitong, near the beginning of the Sun and Moon Dew Mushroom arc, Shang Qinghua suggests that Shen Qingqiu use Virgin Power to get them out of the array they're stuck in, on the grounds that Shen Qingqiu is a nerd who obsessively read the terrible pornographic Webnovel they've both transmigrated into for the plot. Shen Qingqiu reminds him that it's his character's sexual history that counts, and as an adult man in a pornographic universe, he can't be a virgin. Due to being Wrong Genre Savvy, Shen Qingqiu is wrong. | |
