I think this is an important issue for boys, more than girls. I have met so many nerdy/brilliant men who made millions/billions, became legends but it never leaves them that they never got the cheerleader and it haunts them.
I remember being in Chrysler's garage, decades ago, and Lee Iacocca was leaving and the person I was with mentioned that he was divorcing (after 9 months of marriage) his flight attendant wife. I think she got 1 million for every month she had to "endure" in Detroit. And I thought this is a man people wanted to run for President and he couldn't see through this flight attendant. And this is just one example.
I hope that as you teach them that nerdy/brilliant is a great thing, also tell them that woman should be cherished for who they are in their souls. A lesson that even the nerdy/brilliant find hard to learn.
