Because they tend to shoehorn "muh great Japan" into everything and are often wrong about their knowledge on Japanese culture.

[Danksama]

Because the word 'weeb' is by nature meant to describe an irritating weirdo, just like the words 'neckbeard' and 'douchenozzle' are also used as insults and to describe unpleasant individuals.

Japanophile:

Japanophilia is an interest in, or love of, Japan and anything Japanese; its opposite is Japanophobia. One who has such an interest or love is a Japanophile, sometimes called a weeaboo.

Otaku:

Otaku is a Japanese term for people with obsessive interests, commonly the anime and manga fandom.

So, OP, whats your deal then? you say you are one, but you're not? are you male or female?

[ramvne]

idk this is just really confusing







also im male

If you dig Japan, anime, whatever, cool. I personally don't like any of it.

It's not so much your interests as it is being annoying about it. That goes for anything. Don't let your Japan stuff define who you are, you know what I mean?

Even if it's all you ever talk about, there's more people who are the same so it's not like you have to worry about people not liking you. there's plenty of japan freaks out there. I mean yeah it's ridiculous but hey, what can you do

That term is meaningless from overuse and incorrect use.

i watch anime and Japan has a huge cultural history (as do other countries) but i don't obsess over it,i did always want a Katana though, besides it's either anime or reality shows and that's a no brainer

So just out of curiosity, whats the "correct" usage of the term weeb? other than its a shortened version of "weeaboo" which is, from what I understand, derrogative.
