Just a question that I've always wanted to ask. As for me, I try to hide it, for some reason. That's just the way I am. I've only told one of my friends, so far. She thought I was weird before, and now that she knows, she thinks I'm weirder than ever. XD But she's supportive, so that's okay! ;D

I told a few people about this, and that's mostly because a few people snuck up on me while i was on my computer and asked. "Hey, what cha doing?".. I always try to make it sound as non weird as I can ^^
Though. Some of my friends have weird fetishes and interests like I do with GT, so we all respect each other. ;3

I prefer keeping it secret. When I'm at my computer in my room, looking at something G/T related, I will usually flip out if someone walks into the room and I'll try going to a different website or I'll just simply close the Internet right away (which sometimes failed to work). But it's not like I'm looking at anything wierd and strange, for most part... So why do I flip out? I don't know why. I just do. I've never told anyone, and I never really intend to, just 'cause I don't want to. That's just me. ^_^

XD I prefer to keep it a secret, only my sister and me know in our family/friends. For some reason I die whenever my parents look at my computer, that's why I hide most of my other stuff XD *stories, etc*

I'm not sure why I try and hide this for the most part either. The way I see it, me liking GT is the same as those girls who are obsessed with Vampires or Werewolves. But I still do the same thing as you guys, Amaya and MSN, cuz I can't help but be shy about it A few of my friends know; one thinks it's freaky, another is supportive but doesn't care too much for it, and then I planted a seed of interest in another XD I always flip out when I'm working in my sketchbook and people try and see what I'm doing while I'm working on a GT pic! Since DA hates my computer, I haven't been able to share a lot of my work (I've improved sooo much) so I just have a bunch of GT pics sitting there with no one to show them to :\

I guess it would be considered an odd interest, because anyone who hasn't come in contact with the GT fandom probably associates giants with evil, man-eating, ugly brutes like the ones from childhood stories such as Jack and the Bean Stalk :\

^^^ Good point. Giants have a bad rep. Poor guys...

Because the books with those nifty wolfs and vampires are written by weird people who surprisingly got the "Werewolfs and Vampires" populuar!
You know what this means guys! Legs get a romantic giant novel on the market, so people will buy it, and will get addicted! BWAHAHAHA!

Great idea, DJ! Only problem is, Hollywood will get a hold of the book and try (emphasis on TRY) and make a movie out of it. XD

Haha! Just imagine...the book would become so popular that there'd be merchandise EVERYWHERE, and there'd be just as many antifans as there'd be fans. The antifans would all come to this site and start TROLLING on all of our stories! AAAAAAH!
So, yeah...maybe we SHOULDN'T make a good GT novel for the public...lol.

Well, maybe some things are just met to be little niche's that not a lot of people are into.. ^^ GT is one of those, so no romantic novel!

I have never ever told any of my friends/family ^^;
I was soooo happy when I got my own laptop (even though my brother steals it every once in a while -_-) So like, whenever someone waltzes into my room, I jump (like a total dork) and make up some lame excuse for why I closed the internet so fast XD

Luckily for me, my laptop requires a password. So even if someone turns on my computer when I'm not around, the intruder can't access my stuff. ^_^
Once, I went on G/T.L.R.U at school, but then I quickly went off because my school has this dumb program that allows the teacher to see what the students are doing on every computer! >.< I was afraid that the teacher would see and comment on it in front of the whole class... XD Yes, I am THAT paranoid!

Haha, that nearly happened to me ^^ Like, my photoshop teacher was checking on the computer and said "Well well, what do I see here?" I suddenly jumped when I heard that! Luckily, he showed on the gig screen, not my computer, but some girl on a freaking nazi website! WTF!
