There was a very similar thread...well anyway, it's likely the stigma surrounding anime is stronger in some areas and with some groups of people than others...

I told one of my friends about anime and directed him to Death Note, he watched it and enjoyed it, but he never fell in love with anime or anything. For some reason he then told a few of my other friends that I watched Naruto and they poked fun at me once or twice. Had that been leaked to the *wrong* person I'm fairly sure I'd have gotten more stick.

Don't advertise it. That's the safest bet. But if you really must tell everyone, be discerning. Take into account tolerance levels. Hide CardCaptor Sakura, stuff which will just make you seem retarded to first timers etc. etc.

Over the time more people will gradually be exposed to more anime which will increase support for it.
