Idk, why some person need to hide their otaku side and change themselves. I understand if they often tease or feel they don't belong to a group because they were different. For me being an otaku is a passion that keep me motivated to pursue my goals. Its my therapeutic when I felt losing myself. It my choice and my happiness. I am proud being an otaku because it save my life. That's why I'm upset to the uke for continuously hiding and lying to himself.
