Japanese women asked what they think the most undesirable things to see serving as mobile phone wallpaper display none-too surprising resistance to seeing any “childish” anime characters featuring, considering the holders of such phones so creepy only abject narcissists were considered more undesirable.
The results of the survey, with the charming comments of the ladies questioned:
Q: Please indicate the wallpapers likely to worsen your impression of someone?
1. A picture of themselves – 20.7%
“Gross.”
“Anyone who did that must be a creepy narcissist.”
“Why would anyone do this?”
“Frighteningly narcissistic.”
2. An anime character – 16.9%
“Maybe an anime character would be OK, but one from a shoujo manga would be gross!”
“A character from a minor title would creep me out…”
“It’s just childish.”
3. Their lover – 9.9%
“Annoying!”
“You feel they are showing off.”
“Impossible if it were me.”
4. A celebrity – 8.6%
“It depends on the person, but an idol would absolutely make me recoil.”
“Gravure would certainly be gross.”
“Come back to reality.”
5. Their husband or wife – 7.4%
“Anyone but their kids would be icky.”
“I’d look upon this rather coldly.”
“A little gross.”

“Anyone but their kids would be icky.”
wait til someone put their kids as wallpaper and get send to jail.
Guess I'm safe. I have someone ELSE'S kids as my wallpaper... :)
my thought exactly.
Who the hell answer those survey? Just what kind of wallpaper do they want us to use?
Obviously only landscapes. ie. Windows' meadow background from winxp.
time to put an animated image of myself as my phone wallpaper :3
"5. Their husband or wife – 7.4%"
If you still love your waif why not put them in your phone? I don't get it why it got 7.4%. Are the participants jealous single fags?
#5 reeks of pure jealousy
Lol I'm saying!
I made a k-on theme for my cell, that I use for years now. I have no regrets. I don't care what these 3DPD sluts say.
Yeah no need opinion from 3DPD
I'd think it largely depends on the anime... Even the quote's seem to go that way, "minor title" and "shoujo manga".
But still, it's everyones own decision on what to put there... And do these chicks keep watch over their boyfriends cell phones or something? That doesn't sound creepy at all...
I got a picture of a girl in a wedding dress in my phone and I'm a straight woman, screw them.
You can't miss the wallpaper when you are checking your lover's text messages.
Phillip The Drunken Octopus for me

Excellent choice.
I think im safe since Defoko isnt from an anime :D
.. but im sure thats in the same boat though.. fuck social norms.
what's the problem with the pictures of husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend? =(
because they don't have any relationship and they're jealous?
good point my dear friend
People who are insecure about their romantic future like to knowingly maintain a false illusion that everyone they know is a potential romantic partner.
They don't act upon it, it just governs certain preferences to make them feel better about their chances.
Seeing someone happily keeping a pic of their wife/hubby on their phone goes against the idea that anyone they know could someday be their partner.
Therefore, it's something they dislike.
Sorry, but if you have a lover - a wife - or you like a certain hot celebrity, what the flying fuck is wrong with having them on your phone as a wallpaper?
I mean seriously... it's your phone, random people shouldn't look at your stuff in the first place - GTFO my phone you nosey bitch!
And Japanese women wonder why they're alone and unmarried because of all these 'herbivores'.
No shit... so WHAT is allowed? A car, a motorcycle? jet fighter?
Having a photo of their lover or their kids should be a good sign, no?
I think there is something wrong with these women.
Mine is of a jet fighter...
Q: Please state what you find most annoying in [people of opposite sex]
Me:
They judge me for my mobile phone wallpaper
i simply dont care what ppl think of me
Sure you do, don't kid yourself
Anyone who actually says that they don't care what people think of them is a liar. It's a complete impossibility if you are a human being, no exceptions.
Oh well, I knew I wasn't really human anyway.
meh screw those 'normal' people, i have my black rock shooter as wallpaper.
and I have an array of all possible loli and DFC characters for my wallpaper, and I.AM.FUCKING.PROUD.OF.IT!
Welcome to the club.
Welcome to the van.
On my old phone I had it set to a nekomimi loli from an eroge. One of my female coworker asked to see my phone and saw the image, she thought it was cute.good thing she doesn't know where it was from.
Hahaha
or so she pretended to not know
Hell yeah comrade
Pedobear gives that the Seal of Approval Gold.
But sadly, if you were in Amereactionarica, the FBI probably would waste their time trying to get you V& for possessing virtual images of nonexistent fictional female characters. After all, they don't need to try and stop the mass shootings that happen once a week since every ordinary citizen is armed with guns and capable of taking out any shooter. Oh wait.
On just your phone? I have loli pictures (mostly touhou characters :D) on my laptop. And I dont change them either when I sit in public places to browse the internet either!
what was your phone number, again? Let me just have my friend at 1-800-CALLFBI give you a ring..
My number is +TheWorldDoesntRevolveAroundAmerica. Make sure you warn your friend about international charges.
Don't you realize the US can do whatever it wants? Look to New Zealand, no legal standing and they screw over an entire "business". Even if the CEO or whatever is a douche. USA!
(sarcasm is intended here, I do not support the horirble abuse of the "legal system")
My number is 01-800-FUCKTHESHITUSARETARDS
USA is still #1, faggots. Stay butthurt. I'll be here enjoying smoking in the street and carrying my Muku, themed glock 19. Fuck glorious nipon.
These people aren't "normal".
It's wrong to have a picture of your wife as your phone background? Wat?
The only one I can really understand here is having a picture of yourself as your phone background... that's just... kind of weird.
Yeah, those Japanese women definitely aren't normal.
Or at least in North America, it's quite normal and socially accepted to see people with photos of their girlfriend/boyfriend or spouse or children, or simply photos of friends and family (self being included is fine too) as wallpaper.
It's still annoying to me. It's like they intended to put it there to show everyone how successful they are. Or maybe i just hate people.
(@ the anon above me)
Or ya know..they want to see their loved ones whenever they open their phone? They're only 'showing off' if they're actually making or pushing you to look at their pictures. But if the background to their private systems that they use on a regular bases 9 times out of 10 has nothing to do with anyone else, let alone wanting to show off or flaunt it. Personally I think it's sweet if my partner has a picture of me as their background on their phone/computer.
I'm pretty sure you just hate people, cause if you're judging people on their phone backgrounds, you're the one with the issue.(just like the nutcases who took this survey)
most people i know have themselves as their background mostly girls though.
I think it's kind of sweet that someone does that, to me, it makes them seem more human. And you can ask them about their family if you're the kind of person who enjoys talking to others.
For me it's Steins;Gate.

NOT BAD, but i like more landscapes for wallpapers.

you got a larger picture? thats lovely! +1
i have this celebrity as my wallpaper
http://img1.sankakustatic.com/wp-content/gallery/safe-misc-vi/saizensen-kun-prince-of-creepy-otaku.jpg
Couldn't agree more, I have Miku as my wall paper.
I have Black Rock Shooter too. The art for BRS is almost made for wallpapering.
Liru for the last 5 and a half years. I got bored going back and making larger Res crops every time I switched phones and I made a vector of the image now so I am pretty much set for the future and high Res devices.
wow, such a pity that i'm a normal people
I have a wallpaper of batman and joker on one side and spawn and the clown (forgot his name) on the other side.
It the violater
I have a picture of my rock hard penis
Which makes those around you aware of how much you love the cock.
And obviously no worries about any woman seeing it or disapproving, as you have no wife or girlfriend, and never will have.
