YES! my family really couldn't care less what my hobbies are as long as i don't interfere with theirs. as for my friends, they all know i'm an anime fan so they assumed hentai obviously followed.
I have a couple of friends that are into anime and hentai, we talk about it sometimes quite a bit at school. As for my family, my dad most likely knows since I've been fapping to hentai for such a long time. However, he knows the word 'privacy' and doesn't do anything about it which I thank him for :3
Yes, I have friends and family who know. It just turns out that nobody cares. Better for me, really. In fact, some of my friends or co-workers ask me to link them to manga download sections...so I feel like a smut peddler sometimes.
I am the resident pervert of my friend circle, so I am constantly talking about the weird porn I see online. Just to reaffirm my status. Definitely better than being the group's verbal punching bag, for sure.
My friends know because it's simpler to talk to them about it, they're my age and most of them enjoy it too. My family doesn't, hell I won't even talk to them about normal porn, it's simply embarrassing IMO to discuss sexual things with family. I know they wouldn't care anyway but still.
I went to Fakku's Hentai worth watching, with some friends, one year at AX. They were expecting lulz...but they were shocked at the fact that I recognized a lot of the hentai shown. Their responses were highly amusing.
My friends definitely know since they tell me I'm very obvious with this type of stuff. Parents on the other hand have seen some hentai pics on my screensaver and yelled at me for it but I doubt they think it's a hobby.
My friends and My family knows about my hentai hobbys ( -__- my friends are the reason behind that )
though even with the cat out of the bag they still treated me the same way as before.
They still found it a little wierd but they unexpectedly respected my honesty and felt a little closer to me because of it.
Who da thunk FAKKU could bring you closer to your family
