Reply to comment by ZhugeSimp in TIFU by accidentally revealing my love for anime during a job interview. by [deleted]

Speaking as an old school geek, no, it really wasn't social suicide to have those interests in the 90s.

Early 80s it was a bit of a status issue, but even then, it depended upon whether you had other interests and outlets.

I'm a fellow 90s, I hid in a school classroom during lunch to avoid being bullied for being a fat kid who liked anime and mmos.

It didn't help that you had Naruto headband wearers around the school either.
