Very good posts from Oroshi and Twobitimage!

Hollywood probably has to do with it too. Famous Actors/MA'ists like Bruce Lee, Chuck Norris and other may have unwillingly given a different percerception of martial arts from what they should be, people has this idea of ass kicking action on their head when it comes to any martial art stuff.

In fairness, sometimes I think that we are all a bit anorak-like too. A number of my friends have their own anorak-like behaviour, someone who loves aircraft, the guy that has to have every gadget in his apartment, the obsessive marathon running type, etc. All of them try to convert us into understanding why their obsession is not a bad thing. We don't understand it because we don't share their interest, and often times make fun. Why should we expect anything different from people not interested in JSA's?.

It is annoying, but what can you do...
