I have now learned way more about anime than I ever wanted to. I know that not everyone who consumes anime is a creep but there is so much creepiness among anime that being an anime fan would be a huge red flag for me in a partner. I’d rather be on the safe side and be over-exclusive (inclusive?) and just not deal with it at all.

If I can say something you can watch anime , yaoi , Yuri or even like Loli’s and not be a creep , a pedophile , or a pervert, maybe you like cute things , maybe you think some type of relationships are cuter , but still see reality and the real counterparts as human beings not everyone is a total weeb

I understand that but it’s still far away from anything I’m attracted to. Even and especially the “cute aspect,” particularly within my age demographic. But plenty of people are, so I’ll let those people find each other.

I understand , everyone is entitled to their own opinions
