In China, why are people ridiculed for watching anime as an adult?

I think doing what you should do at any age is probably regarded by many people as a "traditional virtue" or a "life trajectory". Under such a standard that I don’t know whether it should be called moral or what, many things have been characterized as the same. On this issue, more than just watching animations, which part of your life can avoid being measured by such a worldly thing

? According to the age stated in the question, at 28, should you already have a successful career or studies, and even have a small family of your own, preferably a baby, and plan to have a second child in a year or two? Come on, who specified it? There is no standardized assembly line in life.

If someone really said this to me, I would probably look at the person with pity and say: "You are an adult and you still don't know how to respect other people's normal hobbies. How childish." Don’t most people who look down on others who continue to watch animations as adults just stand on a strange vantage point and think others are childish and ridiculous? As everyone knows, this kind of evaluation based solely on subjective consciousness and a contemptuous attitude toward other people's normal hobbies is such a naive thing in itself.

Watching animation in your twenties is not something that needs to be evaluated. Outsiders simply don’t understand the touching things animation brings to us, and we don’t have to waste time explaining it. For residents of the 2.5 dimension, ACGN is a part of our lives. Even, I can proudly say that because I watch animation, I can adhere to the tenet of Shonen JUMP, no matter how difficult it is, believe in "effort, friendship, victory"; because I watch animation, I don't have to be like someone Like some middle-aged people, I fear that I will grow old every day. I know that a passionate teenager will always live in my heart; because I watch animation, I will gain great courage from my favorite works every time I feel lost. Because I watch animations, I can gain so much, thoughts and emotions that people who watch diss animations cannot experience.

For someone like me, who has a maximum age difference of five years between my actual age and my comic age, always liking anime is something I will be proud of for the rest of my life. In fact, based on my personal experience, when I was fourteen or fifteen years old, I was really dissed by my elders because I liked watching animations. When I really grow up, including my friends, they will praise me for having a hobby that lasts for many years, and even envy me. If you step into this society, you will be tossed back and forth by the fast-paced life for several years. You'll notice two things about hobbies. First, you will find that no matter when you are happy or depressed, you have a hobby that can accompany you, and your life will be full of fun. You never need to worry about how to spend your free or fragmented time. Hobby itself is not only a kind of entertainment but also a kind of precipitation.

Your hobbies will teach you a lot. Second, you will find that you are always surrounded by people who shout boring, usually people who cannot find their own interests. When they feel empty and helpless, they don't even have a spiritual support, and some emotions are more difficult to digest beneficially. If you can hear their true words, they will tell you that they are very upset that they do not have a hobby, and they envy you who have a hobby. If you allow time to settle, you will find it easier to find that a person who persists in healthy hobbies will have a better mental outlook than those who can never find what they like.

The above is purely a personal opinion.
