in my experience the people who say 'its fake, your so gay for watching it" are always former fans and now think they are too old for it and think they can justify that they used to watch it by making fun of anybody who used to because they are "smarter" than that now So wait... they are "smarter" so that means they used to think it was real! LOL I'd totally have a one up on somebody who tried to say that to me.

I'm pretty certain that there is no-one at my school who likes wrestling, so as long as I keep it quiet I never need to explain. And I don't even know how I would go about finding other people who like wrestling... :/ I go the subtle way. I wear wrestling shirts that a person would only know if they were a wrestling fan. If somebody sees my shirt and comments, then voila! I've found a pal. I'm kinda the same way.... my main WoW character is named Jimmyjacobs... first of all, because I couldn't think of a good name and that's the one that kept popping into my head. Second, because I figure if someone knows it, then I can talk to them about wrestling. Third, if they don't.... people generally end up thinking it's my real name, no harm no foul.

Here's one you probably all heard....
As you watch wrestling.. someone who doesn't comes by and says "I used to watch wrestling back when Stone Cold and The Rock were on and it wasn't such a soap opera."
my reply...
"It was much more a soap opera then... you were just younger and had more of an imagination."
Its funny to see them quiet with blank stare and realize how stuck on reality they are.

A little unrelated, but when I used to watch G4, I used to watch X-Play and thought that Adam and Morgan were a little disrespectful when they reviewed a wrestling game. They go on and on how homoerotic it was, not only that, Morgan actually said that wrestling fans can't read. I know she might've been scripted to say that, but that also makes me think that it's stereotypical that wrestling fans are idiots.
I'll admit, I was a mark at one point and realized the truth but that didn't stop from me liking it. However, I often wonder this. Do non-fans really think that fans think it's real? Also, when they tell them that it's fake, is it their way of discouraging people from liking it?
