LARP has never been my thing, but for the life of me I've never understood the stigma attached to it (or other nerd/geek hobbies). It's at least as athletic and social as getting together with some friends and playing baseball or soccer or whatever, let alone billiards or darts or . . .

So latent bigotry against introverts and sedentary folks can't be the explanation for it. Perhaps it's just a simple knee-jerk tribal reaction to people who seem different.
