>>23316768Unbecoming to who? Who is it you're trying to impress or avoid offend? Genre fiction is all that 90% of adult males under 50 read (the few of them that read that is), if you're actually into literature you're more likely to be seen as a snob by most people. So it really depends on whose eyes you don't want to be seen as "unbecoming".
If you're over 30 and still bother with opinions of other I have some bad news for you
Not at all. In fact, modern people are likely to find having a taste for poetry to be more juvenile than having a taste for fiction.
