Family's opinions on H!P?

[tru_harmony]

also, when my sister is in a good mood, i can get her to dance joshi kashimashi monogatari and go girl~ koi no victory with me!

my sister's fav is yossui too!!!! (everybody loves her) ... but my sis hates rika... as in really! (because i worship IshiYoshi)... man... i have a crazy sister... or I AM the crazy one between us two...

^ Hmmm, being a YoMiki shipper (as is my mother actually she thinks it use to be IshiYoshi and then Miki broke them up) I think, yes, you're the crazy one
But you know I love you

Nice to see all the Yossy love going around.  

I actually showed a picture of yossy to my 3 year old niece who came to visit, and at she said that Yossy is really pretty and cute. 
oh yah, and btw, i once showed my parents a OPV of Yossy with (Makenaide by Zard) and they watched it without blinking, watching very intently. I ask them afterwards, and they said she's unique.... and very pretty.  
I told them that she seems to have great qualities at being a wife and mother.   
I also am very determined to believe that Yossy is universally loved and have a unique character and personality that everyone, man, woman and child, loves.

My parents really don't care too much about it. They call it "your weird Japanese music." 
My little sister enjoys H!P some though. She'll occasionally sing it and listen to it and even has a few favorites. I think Yossi and Miyabi are her top 2.

@lollipogirl: ... i knew i was the crazy one... anyway regardless of insanity over Yo-pairs, i love you too...

i found this cute SD-style fanart in the internet of IshiYoshi in their Ribon no Kishi costumes in a kiss... and i used it as my desktop wallpaper... when my sister saw it (she had no idea that the minister and the prince are IshiYoshi) she thought it was yaoi and thought it was cute...

what's the deal, man? she disapproves of my IshiYoshi but approves of (what she thought as) yaoi?!?!?!

All my family know I listen to H!p stuff, they dont really like the music but they dont think of me as weird for listening to it. Although I got my 8 year old niece hooked on it, she loves Ooki na Ai de Motenashite & Reina, my 15 year old sister who says she doesn't like it has been caught a few times lit
steneing to it

My little sister Likes Mini moni (yeei!) the other day I was wacthing Ayaya's Concert(Atum 2007) and she said: I want to be like her. I was so proud  she try's to dance like Ayaya and I do wota stuff for her xDD

[takagakifan]

Mum: "Does Yossy have her own Facebook?"
Too cute!

[Saikami]

My mom is like...pretty cool with H!P, although she thinks I'm a bit crazy and doesn't get what I'm saying even after I explain it ;; At least she knows who I'm talking about when I talk about Reina LOL that's a start, right?

As for her boyfriend, well...he says I have great taste in women.

Mum: "Does Yossy have her own Facebook?"

Damn, your mom is cool!!! Mine, she's still kinda mad I spent so much money at the H!P Store rather than bringing her food from Japan!

It's good that your mom is cool with H!P. I try to talk to my dad about them (because my mom WON'T listen ) but he gets all of them confused!  at your mom's boyfriend!

[Blu-Cherri]

My friends(they don't post on forums...though I am trying to get them started) mum really likes buono songs! ah so unfair my parents just put up with it all they don't like it >_<

[Pharadox]

Haha, okay... so... my Mom's gay. I tried to show her some of my H!P wallpapers and stuff that I make and she looked at me wide-eyed, asking "Why do you have so many pictures of half-naked asian girls?" Haha. And ever since, whenever there's a cute asian girl around or on TV, my Mom points her out and is like "You like her, don't you? You like cute asian girls!" Haha. I think she's proud.

Wow!  It's great that u guys can open up about your H!P fandom to your parents.  I, on the other hand is hesistant about that....
Although I did show them pics or Yossy before and they don't have much comment about that, but that me to blame since I've only showed them some Yossy goodness so I can't expect them to grasp the awesomeness of Yossy.
My sisters, on the other hand, seen my pb of Kamei Eri since I've shown them from time to time. so they're more accustomed to Eri.  I did get some pretty good comments on her looks, but since I've never shown them videos of Eri in action, they, too won't know the greatness of the Turtle.  I mean, I'd tried but they're not interested right now other than their male idols.  They always use the excuse "I'm not interested in girls, sorry"  but I tell them the love for H!P is universal. 

But even though, my family thinks my love for H!P girls and Japanese  in general (culture, tech, anime/manga, cars, history,etc.), transcends to all Japanese girls, so whenever a japanese girls pops up on TV, movies or anywhere they would tease me about it.
