Are the writers stupid?

Okay, first, this might be a little bit of a spoiler.

Is the writer's dislike of nerds an indication of the intelligence (of the writers)? I think so.

The guys in this movie are so stupid and absolutely not typical of stupid college (as if that is possible?) boys. Typical college boys would be so eager to take advantage of such a fantastic "chick magnet", right? Yet these guys get little help from women, not their mothers, not their girlfriends, no women. They are smart enough to search the internet but they ask for little help from others.

I get the impression that the writers feel bullied by nerds because the writers are too stubborn (or is it some other "st" word; I am trying to be nice here) to listen to those that know better. In this movie, the guys are too stubborn to get help from others.

First, there is not reason that they should have to ask women for help. I'm a single parent who raised my daughter on my own since she was one. Her mother didn't know anything about children and never helped. I managed just fine, to raise her. You don't have to be a woman or have a woman's help to raise a child. THAT is the most sexist and uneducated comment I have heard in a long time.

Also...when the nerds have him after the ??? chump lies about being the father and takes the baby they don't ask for help or even try to figure out how to take care of the baby. Also it's obvious throughout the movie that he's being taken care of by the Omegas. Ever think that just because it isn't shown in the movie that they didn't ask their parents for knowledge. Especially when they came for parents weekend. Obviously the parents already knew about the baby, by the dialog. They cut almost an hour from the movie to bring it down to its current run time.

In final I will say the the main reason this movie should be seen. Jason Mewes (one of the greatest actors of our time)
