I agree. Sheldon seems to be the kind of character that perpetuates the myth: "People who are extremely intelligent and/or rational are unfeeling, boring, and don't understand social norms." Which is funny considering Sheldon seems to act unreasonably fairly frequently.

Sheldon is not unfeeling so much as callous; he feels very much when it comes to him. He's also hardly boring.
