He's asking if he should hide his hentai game love or wear it with pride. At least as far I can tell.

Well..

You shouldn't hide the things you love, and you shouldn't be ashamed of it either. Just do what makes you happy, but live in a world of realistic expectations.

Some peeps will find your love of hentai gross and roll their eyes at whatever you have displayed on the shelf. Other people will not.

If you really like this lady and you think she likes you, hopefully she's cool with what you enjoy. If you're very afraid maybe talk to her about those subjects and see how she feels.

The truth is that if she's really lame about Hentai and you love Hentai, you obviously aren't a match made in heaven. Which is not to say you can't have a good thing, but that you probably won't... I dunno.. Get married? Whatever it is people consider the culmination of dating these days.

I'm assuming you live in the US? I ask because feelings about these kind of games are culturally different in different countries, but here in the States there is still an unfortunate stigma about Hentai; basically that anyone who enjoys it is a maladjusted anti-social pervert. And hell, those attitudes are thrown at people for just liking Anime or Manga.

If you love it, let your flag fly. But just temper your expectations and know that most girls you're interested in who see your collection will require some explanation at the very least.

On the other hand, there are tons of girls who also love those kind of games, they've just less visible, so maybe you could try intentionally seeking out a person who shares your interests right from the start.

I dunno, I really like video games, but I wouldn't say I "proudly display" that, regardless of whether or not adult content is involved, y'know? So, typically I tend to attract and befriend the kinds of people who are more understanding of that sorta thing. If it's something to do with a potential romantic partner or a friend and you're afraid of what they might think, I'd say it depends on who that person is. Pretty much everybody I know knows how obsessed I am with Persona 4 and Chie, and I've talked about, like, Katawa Shoujo with somebody I dated once, but only 'cause it was an appropriate topic for whatever discussion we were having at the time (meaning, she was way more into dating sims than myself, haha).

But really, if you find yourself really into that stuff, to the point where you feel yourself bringing it up in conversations, then why not, I guess? Yeah, there might be people out there who'll probably find it weird, but for every one of those, there's gotta be like, three other people you haven't spoken to who'd love to discuss it with you.

I played Katawa Shoujo and it was okay but I don't exactly tell everyone I meet. Or bring it up. I also think Catherine is a really interesting game and incredibly adult without being too explicit but I guess that's not the crux of the question.

Not being ashamed of what you like doesn't necessarily mean displaying it in an obvious way everywhere. I don't walk around wearing nothing but video game tee-shirts and I don't bring it up with every stranger I meet but I'm also not afraid people might find out. On the other hand, hentai being somewhat in the "porn" category, I would at the same time as not being ashamed of it, not consider it something to advertise or bring up in conversation. I just don't talk about things related to porn with most people.

If what I said above makes no sense then forgive me, but I was a little confused after reading your post.

As with almost any hobby, I would say don't hide it, but don't let it define you.

I'm going to break from the crowd and unconditionally say to hide your hobby from everyone. Much like your run-on sentences, I can't think of anything good that be attained by showing them off.

Literally perfect.

This.

But don't display your porn. Any kind of porn, hentai included. People don't usually do that. Admit to enjoying it, fine, but don't put it on your coffee table.

Also use periods.
