At first, they thought I was stupid listening to it. But since I've repeatedly listened to it, they don't care anymore.

You must be Chinese.


You don't have to be Chinese to hate Japanese people though. My brother had a Japanese girlfriend and it didn't bother my parents (although they wanted my brother to have a Chinese girlfriend). And it's not like, now all Chinese people hate the Japanese.

None of my family members care what kind of music I listen to. I don't listen to music that much actually, but if I'm watching anime sometimes they watch with me just for fun :3

My mom only mentioned it once, something like "this is Japanese right? What are you listening to?" I'm not sure how she'll react if she knew I watch(ed) anime and read manga, since I'm Chinese. I know a guy around my age that's also Chinese and hates Japan.

I also listen to Korean and Chinese music.

Not sure about my family but my flatmates do. They give me even weirder looks when I'm listening to Bollywood stuff or Italian opera. It always makes me laugh when they embarrassedly come up to me asking for one or two tracks ^_^

My parents think its cool. To them its just more music, and sometimes they get into it.

But when I listen to hardcore or deathcore they go "I can't understand what they're saying!"

Baha, go figure. XD

Most likely a person who hates everything Japanese is Chinese. Since they can't get over something that happened over 70 years ago.

I usually use headphones when at home. If I'm driving in the car, I keep the windows closed -- I feel embarrassed if anybody can hear what I'm listening to ^^;

If somebody does comment, it's "Can you understand what they're saying?"

OH PFFT. My mom gave me a golden look when she heard this ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKnCR1S9aZo ) through my earphones while driving in the car.
First she slowly turned her head then gave me the best WHAT THE CRAP face EVER XD And then, asked just that. It's was pure gold.
Um, even I would have done that, and I know what the hell it is.

My family doesn't really care. They even like listen to weird music sometimes but not Japanese. Only some of my friends cares and ask me how you able to listen to such weird songs, well I tell them it doesn't matter since I love J-Pop so much!!! :)
I don't have one.

Nope, because my second home is Japan (I've just returned to my country to finish my uni education), therefore my parents are used to the language, music, culture stuff and so on.

I usually only listen to Jpop-rock at work trough my headphones, but I'm pretty sure that my friends (except a select few) would give me weird looks if I put that kind of music on at home when they are there... ^_^

THIS. They are more shocked with some of the extreme metal stuff than funny Japanese people.

Every one in a while they'll here it, but it usually isn't payed much attention too, until my dad tries to listen to the lyrics.
Then his usual reply is "I think somethings wrong with my ears..."

My family didn't know but a couple of days ago my brother came from from work and i was having a smoke out the back crankin the music loud.

Next the i know i'm hearing my brother go ching chong chinga chinga chinga and then he had a go at me for listening to music in another language. He's been giving me a disappointed look ever since then.
