It sounds like you've missed the entire point of the article; that it's not necessarily being an otaku but how you present yourself that people remember.

This was not an opinion piece, but a poll of Japanese women (I would guess they solicited 500-1000 responses, I'll see if I can find the data).

Someone being a pervert and being true to themselves are not mutually exclusive concepts. If you are honest about liking loli characters, you are being true to yourself. You're also a pedophile. That's how life works.

Mine Oh mine, arent you quick to judge

and they you go, you just made my point

when people starts talking about otakus, they label them as pervs or freaks

~ geez buddy leave the poor otakus alone, its not like they offend you or something <_<

Ok ok ok, lets not get into a huge argument here children.

Not everyone who likes Lolicon/Shotacon(Shotakon?) is a pedophile, some people are just more awkward then others. Despite the results, It's important to be true to yourself without a care as to what anyone thinks, because if a woman/man is attracted to you when your not true to yourself, then they truly do not know you and are just along for the ride.

As someone who was utterly betrayed after changing so much, I say "Don't Change" because if there is "love" then the definition is a connection despite hell or high waters.

Statistics are just supposed to be "FYI"s, don't take them all too seriously.
