The stereotypes are ingrained at a young age...

M4 found a pair of Mark's old glasses...needless to say, quite large old glasses in comparison to today's styles. He put them on and was goofing around. I told him he looked like Poindexter (M4 learned this name from a friend and has been mispronouncing it "Poinexter."). I explained that Poindexter was a name associated with geekiness. (Um...yeah...OK, I'm perpetuating the stereotypes.) Then M4 put the glasses on Mark, started giggling, and said, "You look like a scientist!!!"

As long as Max recognizes that others look like scientists- it will be no problem. Maybe we all need uniforms.
