Does this happen? I think I’ve only experienced something close to this in high school, but never as an adult. Normally, people around me are either supportive or indifferent about someone learning new skills.
Yes, it does, especially when it’s something people think is weird. I am a guy in my 20’s and recently started learning to knit and I still have people telling me not to do it because it’s weird. You just have to do what you want to do and give 0 fucks about what others think

People hate on stuff all the time. How many people do you know who have made a derisive joke about people who hang truck nuts or something similar?
Yucking others’ yum is an incredibly common occurrence.
