Do people mock you for being a wrestling fan outside of this forum?

I have never been mocked by anyone for liking wrestling, most of friends watch wrestling and even the friends that don't watch don't seem to care. One friend I had who had never watched wrestling in his life actually start to watch it because I had one of the Money in the Bank matches on when he came around to mine. Wrestling is sort of popular where I'm from and there was even a wrestling club at the school I went to.

There's the occassional mocking from a few friends that don't watch it, but it's all in good fun from them so I don't get offended by it. I occassionally post about a show on Facebook, and one of my friends usually likes to poke fun at me for it but like I said it doesn't bother me. I only have two other friends that watch it religiously like I do, and we've all gone to shows together.

I wear my t-shirts out in public quite often, and some of the time I get complimented on them. I've never really been ashamed to wear them out because that's the reason I purchase them, to wear them, and I'll wear them wherever I want to.

I was never made fun of for watching wrestling, but I remember when I was in highschool, I wore an edge shirt. I was in my history class and the teacher was in a middle of a discussion and he stopped and walked over to me. He then begins to talk to me about wrestling as the whole class just stares at us. He said he was a fan of rowdy piper and the ultimate warrior. He spent about 5 minutes talking to me about this. So I was called out for watching wrestling but not really made fun of for it.

I've never been made fun of for it because I'm not a die hard fan anymore but then again I don't really talk about it much. If it isn't brought up in conversation, I don't bring it up for the sake of bringing it up.

Yeah, that's how I am Ryan.

I was made fun of in middle school for wearing a John Cena shirt on a field trip.

Other than that, my friend commonly referred to ITR as "In The Anus Forums," and he would always sarcastically ask me what site I was going onto, whether it be the "wrestling forums," or not.
