All of those things are main stream now though, aren't they? Those are all super popular nowadays, everyone and their grandma are marvel fans it seems like, it's rarer to find someone who ISN'T a Marvel fan. Big bang theory is just out of touch and relying on old stereotypes. But women are just as nerdy/geeky/whatever you want to call it as men I've always found, they're just more hesitant to show it off or geek out about it in public for fear of getting those really creepy gatekeeping dudes coming up and "well akschually unless you can name the tree used in the brand of paper used in the original printing of Deadpool number 42 you're not a real fan". Have seen shit like that happen to women friends of mine in public who were WAY more into comics and more knowledgable about all that than I was unfortunately.
