How does someone develope such a deep hate for anime? I can understand disliking it, but to actually have to leave a house?
Anyway, do I hide it? Yeah, sort of. At high school and middle school I didn't really hide all that much since my freinds were also into it and in high school I was the president of a club for it. I'm in college now though, and I never really see a reason to ever bring it up, with the expect of once in art class to make a point about speed lines.
At work I never bring it up, because aside from one of my co-workers kids, everyone there is to old and mature for anime. It's actually quite stressful, because I'm the youngest one there and the age gaps are amazing. so while everyone else can talk about who is pregnent, I just try to follow along and shut my trap.
Family wise I don't hid it at all. My older brothers are just as big into anime as I am. My room is completely anime themed. My dad likes the stuff as well and even though it took a while (because just had to show her Chobits, Hand Maid May, and Miyuki-chan in Wonderland first) my mom finally understands and is okay with it (She likes Sailor Moon, and Love Hina).
