Not exactly realistic, but the lesson we appear to be teaching the girls is they can still be "date-able" with some cosmetic changes. It's those darn glasses holding her back!!!!
The geek boy ends the movie either having utterly changed his personality or without a romantic interest. Though I have noticed that this is changing a bit - they're starting to give the geek boy a geek girl sometimes. "Getting the cheerleader" in such movies still requires a new personality.
Again, the "red pill" boys I'm talking about are still in the wrong, I'm just saying it's an error from ignorance. All they know is what TV, movies and books have told them about their romantic worth, and that is massively reinforced by high school life. As time moves on, most of them will grow up enough to figure out they were wrong.
As for geek boy time vs geek girl time, ATM focusing on geek boys since MRA-types are the subject at hand. However, I think more focus on geek girls is the way to fix the geek boy problem - more exposure to girls, especially in a comfortably "geeky" environment, would probably be the best way to fix the "geek boy" problem. Hard for a geek boy to argue he can't talk to girls when he just chatted for a couple hours about "The Elder Scrolls" video games.
