Not really, no. But I feel like I ** /always/** have to explain it, otherwise people assume it's a sexual hobby.

My parents know I'm an active online Roleplayer, so do all of my friends and so on. I've actually gotten some of my real life friends to join the site, including my older sister. A lot of my friends and even my sister have been in my RPs before, so nope, I don't hide it at all. 

In fact, I'm the person people run to when they need writing advice, haha.
