Well, while reading Otomen I could not help but notice that they seemed to make a big deal of that a guy tha reads Shoujo.

Then I wonder, is it wierd for a guy to read shoujo/Josei?
I mean I have around 80 mangas toghter on my reading/completed lists
and 14 of them is shoju and 2 Josei.
(2+14)/80=0.2 = 20%

And I even consider some of those mangas to be one of the best I have ever read.
So back to the question is it weird?

basically no.

not so basically, again no.

but since you ask it like "is it weird?", my answer is yes^^

and i feel like this is a repeat topic. but then again i might be quite wrong.

Refer to this thread

Not really the same but pretty much answers your question as far as this community is concerned.

BTW out of 1389 titles on my lists 721 of those are shoujo which accounts for 51.9%. >_>

Well, I think it's more likely a question about people finding out about you reading shoujo. While girls won't make a big deal out of it, guys would probably make fun of that or something.

You read what you read, you like what you like.

I read tons of shounen, and I'm female, and yeah, maybe that is weird, and maybe it is weird for a guy to read lots of shoujo, but I see nothing wrong with it.

So my answer would be; Yes, it's weird, but I don't think it's 'wrong'.
