Who wouldn't be attracted to MIT guys? They're smart, many of them can fix stuff and be very handy
| Haha! So true! My dad didn't graduate from MIT, but he can fix just about everything (TV ,refrigerator, computer, heck he made them from scratch before) I was always surprised when my friends had to pay professional people to fix stuff. I would definitely miss my dad when I need stuff fixed in college. XP |

| Um, how about MIT girls, who can fix things themselves anyway? | |

| That is true too! I just fail at being strong enough to loosen some screws and lift up the fridge or something.
But I guess for the Non-MIT girls, it's handy to have MIT guys around? | |

| Hey, I'm a scientist. I can't fix anything, unless it's a bacterium. 
But I would submit that MIT girls are attractive for the same reasons I listed for MIT guys. | |

| Only guys tend to be more shallow and looks-based, stereotypically. =P | |

| I do get the impression that MIT guys are more attracted to non-MIT girls, which is something I neither like nor understand... | |

| I know a lot of MIT guys who are with MIT girls. The only MIT guy I can think of who's in a relationship with a non-MIT girl is still with his high school sweetheart. (Well, also Timur.)
Do I have weird friends? | |

| I'm really skeptical of the assertion that most MIT guys like to date off campus. Seems like totally unnecessary hassle to me. | |

| Adding on to what pebbles said, it seems to be also that the off-campus guys (i.e. fraternities, ILG's) tend to date off-campus more as well. | |
