oh for fuck's sake really

can someone explain this to me? why why why do people care so much about trivial shit like this. yes, people look down on anime, yes, some people are nasty about it. how does a person care so much they keep a secret from their goddamn boyfriend?

[violence4.livejournal.com]

To be honest I'm wondering this too. OP, why on earth would you feel so strongly that you can't tell anybody? (And if the people you know have genuinely made me you feel that they would reject you for watching anime then damn, you need new friends and a new bf.)

[(Anonymous)]

I wouldn't tell someone I'm into manga. I don't want to be seen as an otaku.

[violence4.livejournal.com]

I understand not telling just a random person in the street or a casual friend, but would you really not tell your significant other? I would feel if I couldn't tell them what I was into, they weren't the right person :/

[(Anonymous)]

I know it's weird. :/

[violence4.livejournal.com]

Sorry, I wasn't trying to call you weird. I'm not particularly up on all the ins and outs of anime and manga, but reading your comments and other comments on this secret is making me think I had no idea how badly some people could react to its fans. That's totally bizarre and a real shame, if some people react so strongly that fans feel they can't be open about liking that stuff :(

[dragonsofeden.livejournal.com]

It's a backlash we've seen in recent years -- overenthusiastic anime fans ("weeaboos") have been held up as evidence that anime/manga fans are all maladjusted mouthbreathers. The truth is, EVERY fandom has socially awkward people, many of whom are perfectly lovely individuals once they've had a chance to grow. Demonizing anime/manga is just the new thing that insecure nerds do to build themselves up ("at least I'm not as bad as THOSE LAME ANIME PEOPLE").

[(Anonymous)]

Oh for fuck's sake. Have we raised a generation of nerds without balls? If someone is so shallow that they will judge you by what you read, versus how you act, then they are not a decent friend in the first place.

[(Anonymous)]

Maybe OP is fat and ugly, so she's keeping her anime in the closet to minimize the embarrassment, drink his piss etc. to keep the relationshit.

[(Anonymous)]

You're a jerk and this comment doesn't even make sense.

[(Anonymous)]

Sorry to hear the truth hurts. Fat and ugly girls only deserve love if they're paying. That's just the way it is.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh, you're a troll, that explains the jerk part. Still have no clue how any of this ties into anime.

[(Anonymous)]

OP, is that you? Easy on the self loathing.

[(Anonymous)]

Nope, I'm not fat, ugly or self-loathing.

[(Anonymous)]

You keep on telling yourself that.

[omorka.livejournal.com]

I'm fat and ugly, and my husband, my boyfriend, my fuckbuddy, and my maybe-almost-sorta-not-quite-girlfriend are all quite supportive of my anime-watching. Then again, two of those are far more into it than I am.

[(Anonymous)]

You're all into it, so what's your point?

[(Anonymous)]

That being fat and ugly doesn't mean they gotta put up with a 'relationshit'.

[(Anonymous)]

Nothing witty to retort with when you get proven wrong, eh?

[omorka.livejournal.com]

The anon above me got it in one, although I kind of want to point out that the fuckbuddy isn't particularly into anime (he sort of enjoyed Evangelion but hasn't sat still for anything else the rest of us have tried to show him).

[(Anonymous)]

You Rock :D!!

[dragonsofeden.livejournal.com]

Wow, the quality of trolling has really gone down lately.
