Which stereotype of anime fans is most inaccurate?

[Guardian of the Rain]

We're all overweight?
We all have difficulty with girls?
We're all loners/antisocial? (True of me :/)
We all watch hentai?
We're all weird?
We don't have lives? (True of me :/)
We all think that liking anime makes us honorary Japanese?
We all cosplay? (Never have, but would like to at Comic Con one day)
Or something else?

 

[Woodzy]

All of the above. :bdpf:

 

[Gerkak]

"We all have difficulty with girls".

That's the most inaccurate, Woodzy is correct all of the above are inaccurate.

 

[New knight48]

lol only the first and last two are untrue of me.

 

[To Whatever]

Probably the cosplay thing.

 

[Ripple Hole]

Cosplay.

 

[CrimsonReaper]

all of them...people need to stop generalizing groups!!!!!

 

[Jack Spicer]

I'm not an anime fan, but I fit most of these or have done one of these at least once upon a time #damn Might as well watch way more anime and complete the stereotype.

But seriously, I hate people putting people into groups. So many different people are into the same thing, especially nowadays.

 

[BanGinji]

We're all overweight? That's more of a 'gamer' stereotype.
We all have difficulty with girls? this one is somewhat accurate (especially looking at roughly 1/4 of the posts here) except i'd argue the female fanbase for anime is actually >guys.
We're all loners/antisocial? (True of me :/) Nah. I've known anime fans to gravitate towards more anime fans like goths.
We all watch hentai? Never noticed this as a stereotype. Anyway this is probably the most false of this list.
We're all weird? Weird is a vague term. Somewhat dependant on how you define it. But i'd say yea this is mostly true.
We don't have lives? (True of me :/) A 'gamer' stereotype.
We all think that liking anime makes us honorary Japanese? I've heard this is the japanese impression of american otaku. I suppose this depends on how much of a fan you are.. the more you're into anime, the more you might feel somehow connected to japanese culture...so could be true stereotype in many cases.
We all cosplay? (Never have, but would like to at Comic Con one day)every anime fan i've encountered has at least expressed some interest in participating in this.
Or something else? idk.. don't often hear of stereotypes for anime fans. But anime itself is very often mocked, parodied and stereotyped

The majority of these are just stupid stereotypes, but those wouldn't be stereotypes if it wasn't true to an extent. Most of us are perfectly normal.

 

[Guardian of the Rain]

lol great responses, guys. Generalizations suck.

 

[Brooks]

"We all watch hentai"

This one for me. I only seen porn (with humans) once in my life let alone Hentai and that shi-t was nasty.

 

[Jazzy Stardust]

That we don't have lives. A lot don't, like a lot don't in most areas. But because they're lazy, not because of anime.

 

[Power Bottom]

all of them...people need to stop generalizing groups!!!!!

yasssssssssssssss this right here.

 

[Sir Francis Drake]

You guys don't fit the stereotype? You guys are some ****ing normies. Get off my board! REEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

 

[Nick01]

All of em.

 

[shelke]

All of these won't fit everyone (might for some), but at least one or two of these headings would be accurate for most die-hard anime fans. Honestly, I can't think of ONE diehard anime viewer in real life who isn't into Hentai.

 

[Wes Sine]

No1 I think

 

[Kishi Uzumaki]

All except the 3rd i'm a loner

maybe that weird one as well but i don't think i'm weird only others think that .

 

[QueenPrincess Legendary]

The overweight one.
