contrastively, in my country, people have thought that (board and miniature) gaming is childish. more than, still some people think gaming is evil. but neverthelsess, among young people board and miniature gaming have been revitalized.

I think there is still a bit of "Oh you play with toy soldiers do you?' from some people, but when you explain it's like chess only with more variable pieces and movement etc it can help.
I also remember being at the Student Nationals one year where we had a demonstration from the female students who seemed to think we were glorifying war!
However generally people are quite accepting as there are other worse hobbies!
Cheers

In response to the Oh you play with toys soldiers commit, I say it's not really playing, it's thinking, it's just chess that is more complicated and much more colorful.
Moreover if you think about it, considering all the things that go into the hobby, we spend more time getting ready to compete with with our toy soldiers then we do actually using them in a game.
