When I began studying macroeconomics along with business (concentrated in Japan) in college, I naturally inherited some general interest in Japanese culture. My mother was perfectly fine with that, but sincerely asked me if I was going to "turn into one of those anime losers?" I reassured her that I have no interest in that side of Japanese culture, but I still rofl at that today. Needless to say, she's been influenced by the stereotypical introvertedness of many of today's Japan-culture youth, which I guess is somewhat unfortunate.
