He only looks like a "dork" because pretty much any photo of someone from the late 70s and early 80s is funny. For the time, that was a pretty cool look.

If you want truly dorky, despite the era, try this one of Bill Gates throwing floppy disks with a "sexy" pose:

It may be funny to us males, but females may actually find the confidence and ambition in both pictures very attractive.

Well, Bill certainly had something that attracted the ladies.

"At that point in time, Microsoft had gone public and Bill Gates was Bill Gates. If you were in the business you knew him or knew of him. The girls I was with were in the business. Long story short, I went to the bar to get some drinks for all us, I come back, they aren’t there. Come to find out the next day, Bill stole my girls."

It's trivially easy to take bad pictures of people. And doing so is neither notable nor valuable in any way whatsoever.

Contrast with this photo taken by someone who knows what she's doing:

Honestly, that's really not that bad.

Especially compared to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGvHNNOLnCk
