My Little Pony Friendship is Magic

[crows]

how come Pokemon doesn't have its own Con? That is what is interesting to me, Pokemon is just a big and as cute and cuddly as MLP, but there are no Pikachu cons.

I am not hating, Just makes me wonder. I like Pokemon. I Like Pikachu,

 

[devilof76]

More people like ponies than Pokemon? I call shenanigans.

 

[crows]

yeah that's what I wonder about. that means that Pony fans might be fewer but more into them? or something? more fanatic?

OMG

What ****s with me when people come in here trying to equate fandom for this cartoon with the most aberrant examples is how insistent they are that it's not masculine. No **** that My Little Pony is feminine. Fine work Einstein. You can recognize pink as girl color. Raquel Welch will be all over you.

All I want to know is why your masculinity finds femininity so repellant. Because this is the most feminine cartoon since Sailor Moon. What? You don't like girls?

And people wonder why something as weird as bronies could happen.

It's cause the modern male is being destroyed through various venues on purpose. Testosterone in men is not as high as it has been in the past. Due to estrogen mimickers, obesity, chemicals etc. etc. There's not a lot of real men left. Every modern 20 something is usually nothing more than a manboy or manchild. They want us modern men docile, weak and not to speak up or be aggressive. Being a geek is no excuse to be lazy and not fit. So while i collect "dolls" i also lift weight, and do things that are aggressive on purpose to combat the increased estrogen, and have not let my "hobbies" turn me into something i don't want to be. (do you notice they put the Doritos and mountain dew next to the call of duty games in the video game section now? it's on purpose) anyways i could go on and on. I remember you saying one time our grandparents were made out of something tougher than we are and it's too true.

This bronie thing is for weak men/boys period. Hopefully you can understand that, but i'm almost sure you'll find some excuse's to combat that.
Over-thinking always complicates things
The truth is the truth.

is that necessarily a bad thing? I mean, prisons are full with Macho "Alpha" males. I'm just saying...

We don't live in a cavemen type of society anymore. We don't need to hunt for our food or take over lands. We don't need to carry swords and we don't have to throw rocks at each other anymore.

I'm just thinking, maybe it's time for men to evolve too? Maybe MLP is actually a good thing?

I havent watch My Little Pony because I just push things I have to watch. I still want to watch It's always Sunny, but never really do it.

Also, My Little Pony seems kind of boring. So I want to fully check it out too. Another reason I keep procrastinating is because I might love it and I don't really want that

 

[blood]

yeah alot of haters had that happening

Ms. faust has spoken!

There are always going to be fringe (weirdos) elements of any show or movie that has a large enough fan base. Whether it is Star Wars, Star Trek, MLP, Twilight or Harry Potter. I dont disaparage anyone for what they like, and won't condemn an entire group of people because I have seen a couple strange examples of fandom, like the Youtube McD guy.

To me it seems a bit more strange than some other things, but I don't have enough time in my life to care that much.

I consider myself a Star Wars fan, but I'd hate it if people judged me because they saw some weirdo's dressing up as Jedi Knights and fighting with lightsabers or worse.

Conversely if I was judging people from what I have seen, than I'd be running for the hills every time someone mentioned Star Trek, cause let me tell you, I have met more "weirdos" that were Star Trek fans than from any other fanbase.

Dude...DUUUUUUDE.


Transformers and power rangers/sentai. HOOOOOLY ****. THAR BE MONSTARS THAR!

Granted, it's more entitlement babies going ape**** than anything else.. then again, the number of Slashfics out there is staggernig

Well, every fan base has a weird side, but, no offense, this is one of the few fanbases that started off just weird.

I mean, it isn't everyday a little girls cartoon becomes one of the most popular TV shows amongst 20 something males. It stands out in the crowd. This isn't judging, this is just telling it like it is. It's unique to the world of fandom.

All those pictures were harmful. .

Masturbating to cartoons is wrong. Masturbating to childrens cartoons is even worse.

Aw come on this show just reminds me of the popular powerpuff girls from back then. It was popular to all ages. I actually tried giving this show a go but I couldn't take it. I see the appeal tho. It's just a light hearted type of show. Idk

That might be a valid point, but I fail to see the relevence?

Funny you should mention that. Same creative team.

Inherently creepy? Because Bronies statistically eschew sex and relationships? My viewpoint isn't based on naivety, it's based on a different perception of what constitutes creepy.

So long as they're not harming anyone else, or signalling in some way that they are likely to harm someone else, I am not inclined to judge another person's idea of fun.

Take your own behaviour for example. You join up to a dolly forum, presumably to discuss your interest in dollies (or statues as the case may be, I haven't trawled through your posts) - and within 60 posts you mosey on in to a thread you have no real interest in, and for no other apparent purpose than to cast aspersions on the activities of some of the show's more fervent adherents.

You don't 'get' something, it seems, so you denigrate it. This attitude is responsible for so much of the world's misery, and as far as the greater good of humanity goes, is worse than creepy - it's insidious.

I am amazed at how so many involved in a man-child hobby such as 1/6 figure and statue collecting can so readily pronounce themselves the arbiter of normalcy in this place.

Yes, eschewing sex and relationships is creepy. Normal guys don't do that.

As far as collecting 'dollies' I don't collect anything but there's a tremendous difference between collecting Superman and MLP.

Let's imagine that a Brony actually does get a girlfriend - how is that going to look when he meets his GF's dad? No father wants his daughter being with some weirdo who watches MLP. Good luck explaining to him how the show is so well written and you love music.
