people weirded out from my hobby?

Hi everyone

I am 1 year into airsoft and have noticed that something isn't right. For example, when people ask me about my hobbies and I tell them that I play airsoft, they ask me if it's on Xbox or PlayStation. When I tell them that it's real and explain the basics they tell me that that's violent and weird. I've been asked if I am a mass shooter and if I will bring any of my airsoft guns wherever the conversation's at.

This is really taking a heavy toll on me and I don't know what to do, please give me an advice, any will be appreciated.

Upd: sorry if I don't reply I just try to reply to different comment since advice is sometimes repeated, thank you for helping me cope with morons who asked me questions from the post
