What do you guys think are we more perverted than the average joe who doesn't watch anime?

yes because most anime fans are pathetic incels.

No. You just need to look up on the most searched terms on porn sites to realise people are pretty perverted (or downright degenerate) as a whole. It's just that anime fans tend to be very open and not a bit ashamed about it.

I think hentai fans are more perverted than the general population amirite

Since Japan is an shame-fear culture, the men try to be all proper and are thus sexually repressed. The result of that is weird fucking anime fetishes also you'd be surprised how many people irl I thought were normal aren't. It's eye opening

I think it depends on the "average joe" in question, but maybe that is just because I hang around quite a few different circles of degenerates aside from anime. Either way, I'd agree with @satyr_icon in that, when you scrape beneath the social facade, most people, regardless of viewing habits, have at least 1 or 2 embarrassing/naughty fetishes.

Have you met the general population lately? I think the majority of us are not that bad in comparison... Which means we're all shit but just... Not as shitty

I honestly think animanga fanbase isn't perverted at all. As a matter of fact, most of them are prudes lol.

Reallllllllly? Is this even a question? Look at all the Lolicons and people fetishizing rape and invest. Yes, the anime community is far more perverted than most other non-porn-related communities.
Lolicons are scum. BABYMETAL is more metal than Metallica. Naruto is objectively the best anime ever. HxH 99' is decent. HxH 11' is bad.

Yes but that's no such a bad thing. Though I have found if I show an episode of something I thought was innocuous to one of my non anime familiar friends they will be pretty vocal about the fan service of young looking characters and other pervy things which you just have to grow accustomed to even in the more mainstream anime. Tbf one of my favourite animes I originally turned off in disgust till I acclimatized. To "that's just how anime is"

AnimeFreak-San said:What do you guys think are we more perverted than the average joe who doesn't watch anime?If you think that anime fans are more perverted than the average population, you probably haven't had a chat with the average population, particularly the college-age folks and young adults, and particularly after they've had a beer or two and are sitting around with friends of the same sex in a noisy room where they think they can get away with talking about whatever.

Definitely not. As someone else stated: just compare the size of the "normal porn" industry with the hentai industry. Perversion is part of human nature, it has nothing to do with one's hobbies. Even sports are sexualized. Hell, even food...

Ahahahah, this actally got me laughing. ot: I dunno, depends on what ya mean by "pervert"; If u mean anime fans think about sex more than "normies", I'd say no, if anything, I'd say it's the opposite lol. If u mean that anime not being real allows to see "stranger" fetishes and so that on average anime fans have strager fetishes, maybe? Then again, if u classify what's strange by "normal" people's standard it's kind of bound to be that way.
Mar 5, 2019 1:48 AM#19removed-userOfflineJul 2018561541
Judging by the content of MAL, I would have to say yes.
Mar 5, 2019 5:10 AM#20holysauronOfflineDec 20152420
I don't think so. People are perverted in general. Anime fans are just a bit more open about their weird fetishes.

I don't think so, and not even on the internet.

Yes, most definitely, the majority of the anime community has renounced their morality, sadly this happens to most people who get into anime and discover the dark side of it, unlike any other human being, anime fans have not only come to see things such as paedophila and incest as normal but even love and advocate it, i mean, otherwise there wouldn't be soo many lolicons, little sister fuckers, rape enthusiasts, "not gay" trap fanciers, fujoushi etc.

I think most people are fucked up, so to answer your question, no i don't think so Its just more obvious Online, and more obvious if you come across a specific group/type of people

I don't think so. If anything, anime fans are usually more reserved and keep to themselves.

People are pervert, and moreso on the internet. Anime is just another way to express that perviness, but it's not a bigger one.

Depends, if "fapping to underaged teenage girls" equals your understanding of "more perverted" then yes.

many anime fans watch anime or read manga for the plot ya know. in their minds, plot is basically something involving female body's private areas. they are not perverted. they are just lewd.

Being perverted is normal, at least in the definition that everyone seems to use where 'any kind of sexual interest beyond marriage and missionary' is deemed perverted. The real creepy ones are the ones who don't even know their sexuality and desires because they suppressed them their whole life.
I probably regret this post by now.

No, anime fans are not more perverted than non-anime fans. It seems like it, from the outside, but they aren't really. No more so than people who watch porn.

Hokage_Jason said:Reallllllllly? Is this even a question? Look at all the Lolicons and people fetishizing rape and invest. Yes, the anime community is far more perverted than most other non-porn-related communities. You need to branch out more. Incest is fetishized all the time in films, books and porn. Lolicon? The original GOT books had Daenerys aged 13 when she was offered up to Drogo. Graphic depictions of rape also is way more common in Western shows than in anime (if we exclude hentai) Granted if you include it and then have go up against porn Rape fantasies are very common so again still vastly less common including hentai. I guess the only thing you could say anime does it depicts things like incest in a vastly more innocent light but that is about it. (though then in the West we do have Queen Victoria marriage that we tend to glorify to her first cousin though she was deeply in love with Albert so fair enough) Also there is tons of very very messed up stuff outside of anime so yeah I think the majority of the audience that watches anime or reads manga isn't more perverted than the average population. Especially when most of anime sexualization is just bouncing non nude breasts.

Human beings are sexual creatures by nature. I don't see any difference.

i would say no because most movies and tv shows have some sort of sex appeal, but i would say people are so desensitized to it they dont notice anymore.
Mar 6, 2019 3:19 PM#36EndlessMariaOfflineJul 20074681
Honestly most of the western TV programs I have seen are far more perverse and disgusting than most anime outside of straight up hentai. Popular TV shows such as Game of Thrones and Family Guy are basically smut.

The "General Public" is QUITE perverted....just go to PornHub to see how fucking perverted they are, especially when you see their annual most searched terms. Anime fans (some) have simply added 2D into their perverted arsenal. And quite frankly, it's a good addition, seeing as 3D is quite flawed.
Mar 6, 2019 3:45 PM#39KruszerOfflineDec 201210084
Hahaha, "pervert" is just a synonym for honest or straightforward if you ask me. Humans are just slightly smarter animals with the same instincts, thus to be truly human we must embrace both instinct and intellect as part of ourselves. It doesn't have anything directly to do with anime unless watching hentai got them to be more open with themselves.
