Well I'm a fan of anime myself, but all most people associate it with is weebs with waifus and crap. Don't get me started on furries

furries arnt bad

My apologies, let me rephrase that. When I said that I meant "don't get me started on how everyone feels about furries". You see while I'm not in the furry fandom (I know a guy who is), I have nothing against furries. I'm just saying they're often seen in a negative light, much how anime fans are often seen as weeabos and whatnot.
