>>1013> Why are you a weeb?Got into anime when I was in elementary school. My cousins use to bring in movies like Akira, Ninja Scroll, etc and I loved them.
> Do you feel embarrassed by it?I use to feel embarrassed by it because of the animosity, but now I don't give a fuck because it's less stressful to be who I am than to put on a facade.
> Don't you feel retarded and disgusting sometimes? {you probably should}Nope, and it's funny because I never knew weebs were known in the general public as these autistic, lonely, greasy, unhygienic, pocky eating losers. I'm very hygienic, probably even a germophobe I take multiple showers a day.
> If you're in your 20s and still cosplay/is a lolita/etc, why do you do that? Don't you feel like a wo/manchild?I've never cosplayed in my life and will never get into it, but however I have friends who do. They enjoy it as a hobby and respects the culture, they probably do it because they consider it fun. It's funny that the most interesting people I've ever met are under the term of "wo/manchild", especially from millennials and Gen Z because they're known to be the generation that has trouble thinking of what they're interested in and their hobbies.
> Are you, at least partially, the weeaboo stereotype {lacking social skills, too shy, or even way too loud, etc}?I use to be when I was younger (I lacked social skills and I was too shy), but as I grew up and became more socially aware, I realized that I prefer to be alone.
