    I have blue hair and people think I'm into anime. I'm not. I just like the color blue. Shouldn't people assume I'm queer or a punk instead? I also have a slightly Asian looking face. Could that make people think I like anime?

    Probably because it's so common. In the early 2000s, it was probably associated with nu metal or goth. No idea queer = dyed hair.

    I have blue hair too. People assume a bunch of things without even knowing you, its human nature!

    Probably 'cause a lot of anime girls have colorful hair and blue is pretty common (from what I'e seen although I could be mistaken as I don't often watch anime).

    Blue is a pretty common hair color for an anime protagonist? That's the only conclusion I can make. I agree that that isn't the thing people should assume you to be? I've never really heard of people assuming someone likes anime just because of hair color. That's strange.

    Probably because of anime characters like Rei Ayanami:

    Blue and other unrealistic hair colors are common in anime; sometimes hardcore fans dye their hair in accordance with it :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    huh, I don't know. I've never heard of anyone assuming someone was into anime because they had blue hair.
