What Really Keeps People From This Hobby?

I guess I'm curious how real everyone feels the 'geek' factor is ? <br /> <br />I'm old enough now not to give a damn what anyone else thinks about what I do and I think a lot of people start to feel that way somewhere past 25. I can certainly see how it's a much bigger issue for younger modelers, but then again, as I remember my teenage days, EVERYBODY had some kind of 'hang up', peer issue or just plain out of control teenage hormones. :-) <br /> <br />So, I guess my question to folks (maybe over 25 or so), is there really a 'geek' factor or a 'stigma' factor ? I find it kinda hard to believe and in fact most people I know around my age (early 40's) wouldn't think anything of my interest in model railroading. <br /> <br />
