No but I did get a few comment for wearing a Lex Luger shirt to school. It was a cartoon of him from the waist up, so it looked like I had a muscular naked man on my shirt. Looking back... I'm lucky I didn't beat myself up.

yes, all the time. they think it's so stupid and dumb that I watch it. Sometimes it makes me sad that they don't understand why I like it.

I was made fun of once or twice for liking wrestling but i could care less. It seems that after high school once everyone found out i was a collector they don't to have anything to do with me. I am fine with that because that gives me more time to watch wrestling.

I work in the commercial construction industry and am around a lot of people daily ranging from millionaire owners to toothless laborers. Some make "gay" jokes and some don't care at all. Some say "haha you play with dolls?" I used to let every little thing bother me but as I've got older I stopped taking what people say seriously because it's useless stress. em

Wrestling will pretty much always be that "fake and gay" show and pretty much everyone who isn't a fan is ignorant towards the subjects and dislikes it for no particular reason. Honestly coming from a Junior in High-school if you want to stop being made fun of for it. The best thing you can you is keep your wrestling talk and WWE shirts at home. "Being yourself" will make you huge bait for teasing about your "gay" interests. Sadly it's wrong but honestly how it is in school. Wrestling past elementary school has always been socially unacceptable for some un apparent reason. At least that's how it is here. Try to keep the figure collecting a secret as much as possible, if people find out about a hobby like figure collecting you're automatically going to the bottom of a school's social hierarchy. I know this sounds all very superficial and I completely agree, but that's how it is no matter how stupid. The be yourself talks have always been BS, if yourself is something unappealing to others you're not going to get very far socially. Not that you need nor want to, but that is how it works.

Some people are dickheads about it and give me crap every chance they get but there are also people who think it's cool or don't care. Those who make fun of it do it because they don't have any hobbies they take pride in so they have to put the hobbies of others down but I couldn't care less about people like them.

if my wrestling watching falls under scrutiny, i simply make the point that it shouldn't be taken too seriously. it's some dudes pretending to be characters and doing some crazy things, it's just meant to be fun.

I got it bad in high school, and that was the late nineties when it was super popular. I can only imagine how it would be now. I didn't get it too bad from 88 to 91, I stopped watching after that. Then I came back in 96, my first year of high school. Now I don't really get it because I'm so Damn old that it wouldn't make much difference. I'm past caring what others think of me (for the most part)

I'm a senior in high school and people still do it to me.
I honestly don't care.
They say, "Oh, well wrestling is fake" and I respond simply by saying, "So is just about everything else you see on TV."

wiggles, I feel you. I'm also in 8th grade and everyone says it's fake and they're too old for it. But I mostly don't give two about people making fun of me. I wear a Kane hoodie and have figures in my backpack (I take them out during class sometimes and play matches on desks ) There is only one person besides me who loves wrestling as much as we (WF members) do in school. thats y people make fun of me saying its fake and crap well actualy they go three years of training i used to bug me now i just keep walking and don't even agknolege them

I was made fun of a lot for liking wrestling even at the tender age of 7! I just got used to it and continued on liking it.. one of my friends actually got me out of everything I was into at that time though.. Pokemon, Yu Gi Oh, Wrestling ect.. I was lost and it wasn't fair as i was being ridiculed for liking things any normal person at that age can like.

My dad used to rib me about it back in the old school Hogan days, but he watched with me. Everyone I hung around with watched and we would have matches in our living rooms. If people gave us a hard time we just shrugged it off and kept walking.
Now I am 30, and a surprising number of people share the addiction.
Screw the haters,they are the ones missing out.

In 8th grade a teacher tried to make fun of me for it. I just walked out of class and explained this too the principal. Me and her had problems all year, and I've never had problems with a teacher before or since. It was art class, and two kids got into a fight and threw paint at each other, some paint gets on me, and I get ing detention. What the ? She just so happens to be who you have to go to for detention, and I crapyou not she stared me down the whole ing time while eating some chips. Creeped me out.
