I think we already went through something like this (started on THAT) a while ago, or at least something which would also prompt my usual "this is not unique to anime fandom" rant. I like anime. I also play MMORPGs (<i>City of Heroes</i>/<i>Villains</i> mainly), and I play tabletop RPGs, and I write fanfiction (mainly anime). Each and every one of these traits I've been told I should be ashamed of, and I don't really see why. Heck, just taking the fanfiction alone, I should be doubly ashamed, since I'm engaging in a hobby looked down upon by people who are theoretically looked down upon. It's like a hierarchy of dorkiness; I've heard mostly cynical views that everyone needs someone to look down upon. It's just that I don't really grok all the "we should hide our participation in this fandom" commands. I mean, it's not like it's <i>our</i> fault that the Bad Apples exist; I don't think any sane and rational person would blame a group for its extremists. Well said.

In my honest opinion, society these days suck. Society doesn't care about f*cking opinion, esspecially in school societies, and you only "fit in" if you constantly fiddle with your overhyped Apple products (a.k.a "The iPod") and go on picking on the new kid just because everyone is doing it. Who stands up for the lonely kid in the corner that can't conjur up his courage to make friends? Me. Does liking anime make ME a loser? Are people that fit into society REALLY winners? If being intellectual means you have to fit into a crowd of idiots, then I'm very much proud to be a "loser". Excuse me, I'm going to run into the streets and point and laugh at the losers that collect stamps. :roll: I like it how people think fitting into society makes you such a damn winner.

One should be proud of oneself but moderation is virtue that you should follow. In the end , I reckon it ends up to the individual to make up their mind of the topic.
