So i am curious to know this and if you do, what are your reasons for it? I want an intellectual discussion but i might be asking for too much, just tell me if you hide your interest of anime from others and why? Do some people know?
Do you hide the fact that you watch anime?

Nope. I don't watch alot of anime to begin with, but I don't hide it. I do the same for comics, cartoons, everything or anything I like. I promote it. Not to show I'm different, but because I simply like the stuff and want to wear a shirt, for example.

All of my friends know I think, and family. It's nothing I hide, though neither actively discuss with them, as we simply wouldn't be able to talk much about it, not sharing a mutual interest in it.
Conclusively, no. I don't hide it, though someone would have to ask me about my hobbi-(-es, not hobbit ;D)... Wait.. When someone asks me about my hobbies, even though it was long ago that last happened, I don't think I told many about manga and anime..
New conclusion: I FEEL as if I wouldn't hide it if someone asked about my hobbies, but probably more out of caution rather than fear of being judged; I wouldn't say I read manga, but that I like to read, as a hobby.
This only if the person is someone I don't know, being cautious, as I said, remember?

I don't hide the fact that I watch it. In my mind, there's nothing wrong with watching anime so I embrace it. Hiding it means that you're ashamed/embarrassed or am I wrong in assuming this :shrug:

In my world you are, implying that there is more to it than just being ashamed and embarrassed, something else entirely.
Me, if you read my post, I would, quite blatantly, use it as a precaution.
I should throw in my two cents, i don't hide the fact that i watch anime, like if someone walked up to me and asked what is that i would tell them like it is and i like watching it, i've had people get into One Piece just by me talking to them about it. However i don't go around with a strawhat being all weeabo and promoting One Piece, i talk to the people who watch anime too and even people who don't like anime and said they can't bring themselves to watch fiction ended up watching something.
Though i don't always go with it out in the open, i keep it to mostly myself, if people see it fine, if they don't that's fine too.

No. Nope! Nope!
Seriously, why should I? I don't watch a lot of animes and mangas but still, if someone asks me, I don't hide that.

I only watch 2 animes currently, so i don't hide it, and even if i watched more i still wouldn't hide it, i don't advertise either, if some of my friends ask me something about the anime i'll answer, hell i even talk about OP and naruto with my friends. And y family knows i watch it, so yeah.
