I've been married 11 years to a combination of 3 different wives (not all at the same time). I have been in the computer field for 12 years (although when I married my first wife, I was only fixing dot matrix printers so I wouldn't consider myself a geek at that point, maybe only a nerd).
Anyway, your friend has fallen for a stereotype just as everyone falls for (at one point or another). Just as you can not say that ALL arabs are murders you can not say that ALL 'computer people' are immature. Perhaps it's just the group she's been hanging out with. If the only 'computer people' she has met are the 11 year olds in school that have been trying to break into porno sites, then that is her perspective, but she shouldn't hold that against, the 45 year old system administrator working at IBM trying to keep his family fed.
