I don't hide mine..but I'm really shocked to find out that most of the mangas in my list are shoujo mangas O___o;;;

I never really noticed that I read too much shoujo
(considering that I'm very much an Anti-shoujo-loveydovey-Cutesy-LOLOLOLOLLAMEshoujoisLOL-p erson)
...i guess the reading list doesn't really accurately tell about anyone's reading preference.

but yea, it does help in keeping track with mangas and letting other members to knoe what you have read when you're looking for some manga titles in "I'm looking for thread"..

I only hide my wish/unfinished/on hold lists cuz then it accuratly shows what my top three genres are. And if I showed my wish list yaoi wouldn't be the top one 8D

I hide my on hold / dropped lists because a series being on that list is somewhat offensive to its fans. Sort of a courtesy thing. I'm so abrasive about taste most of the time anyway, that I have to be nice somehow

Though I have been clearing out my reading list of late, since I'm beginning not to have the time to read all the series I want to. Have to prioritize, and the organization is handy...[/slightly offtopic rant.]

NightSwan also said that she wanted to peg me, once, but I'm not sure whether to take that as a compliment or a threat...

I'm guessing people hide their lists more out of habit than anything else. Same reason they hide their gender, birthday and any other personal info from the internet. In my case though, I'm just plain paranoid.

It may seem silly but the idea some bastard would use info as trivial as manga lists against you someday really is in the back of a lot of people's minds. One day you mark a few hentai, yaoi or yuri in your list and the next thing you know, the police busts down your door, confiscates your PC and tosses your ass in a holding cell. Thank goodness I don't live in Iowa.

I only hide my wish list. I don't really know why exactly, it's just titles that look like they might be good if they were being scanslated. I guess it's because I don't know enough about the titles to publicly support them.

I don't hide my other lists because I don't care if people see them, and I want people to see them when I make I'm looking for... threads.

i dont hide mine, it's too helpful to be able to keep track of what i've read thats the whole point of the site right?, specially if i need help finding something to read.....



________________

Never made a list. And if I did it would take me quite awhile to do it if I were to add all the manga I've read. If someone really wants to know what manga I've read or am reading, they can just ask.

If it weren't for the gutter, my mind would be homeless.

I use to hide it, 'cause it's long and a bit embarassing? Like I read too much manga.
But well, I unhid it. And left it public for a few months already.

Mine are public.

People hide their lists because:
-They don't want people to know they read hentai
-They don't want people to know they read yuri/yaoi
-They're hiding the fact that they are pedo's who love shota and loli



Just kidding(Though it's highly possible that my theories are true! )

I don´t hide my list
I read what I want and even if i read hentai or elese i dont have to list them if I dont want to know from someone (to be honest i only read one hentai )
I am more into Yuri
But most of my list is shonen around 65%

I just tried that and my top three didn't really change.

Why is comedy my number one?

i hide my 'cos im slightly paranoid that my family is going to have a look what im readin and my friends. Because my list is full of yaoi and i think just 1/4 is something else (shounen, shoujo..)
That's why i keep it hidden

i only hide my unfinished and on hold lists because they don't really show what i like. though i think only my reading list shows the stuff i really like.

StarlightDreams theories are definitly right. I myself don't see a reason to hide my mangalist.
