      Never talk about it in public. Don't bug people about the ponies on non-pony websites (though I've made one somewhat pony-related video, poking fun at haters only to have, ironically, the haters think the video was on their side). I read fan fiction a lot, help Pen Stroke with his, and I have a few things in the works that will probably not see the light of day until next year after Season 2 for a variety of reasons.

      ...that's about it, actually. I will say that pony has helped me to be a more cheerful, less cynical person and generally allowed me to appreciate more "cute" things without gagging.

      ...okay, so I technically have a fan avatar but again I don't flaunt it where it wouldn't be welcomed.

      Although I marked "Toy Collector" despite not owning a single toy related to MLP, here is the reasoning:

      I never thought I would watch a show called MLP. Never thought I would set every background, screensaver, and poster I have to MLP. Never thought I would pay the $50 to get two MLP shirts from welovefine. Never thought all I would do with my free time is watch MLP, talk about MLP, and read this site.

      Considering all this, the moment Hasbro develops quality MLP toys, I am sure my wallet will be $50 lighter.

      I'd say I'm a casual fan? I mean, I tab here every so often each day, check tumblr for pony blogs, read a few stories, etc... but I don't really let it intrude my daily life that much.

      It's sort of just another thing I like to do. I haven't bought any merch, I haven't decked out anything I own with ponies (aside from a Pinkie Pie desktop wallpaper), and I rarely make references because no one else would get them.

      That being said, I'm typing an essay for my English class about why Pinkamena is a scarier character than Twilight from Lesson Zero. Derp dee doo!

      Hmm, I'm not sure if the poll created in Equestria Daily is considered deep enough, or is too specific. For example, the two options, "I annoy everyone with how obsessed I am" and "I don't talk about it much" if picked would simply contridicit each other. In addition, I feel that there's no option to tell how much or how little you put emphasis on what concept; like the amount of songs you play - how many do you download per say?

      I'm sorry, I can't really participate in this because of how the poll is set up. :( Well maybe, but how so? I'm probably thinking too hard about this but I'm somewhat bothered.

      anyway, i've tried to clop to ponies and i really can't. i don't really know why. i still browse, if only for the humor potential in it. especially the fiction, oh my. such silliness trying so hard to be mature and raunchy.

      lets see, well due to being a regular on Synchtube iv watched all the episodes a ridiculous amount of times, and I read fanfics on occasion (though at the moment less than I used too). however I don't actually talk about the show outside of the fandom, the most "pushing" of the show i will ever do is that iv recommended it to a few friends, some of them liked it others didn't and then we went off to play more Video games.

      I do have a pony wallpaper, and a ton of pony images saved, but hell I have a ton of everything images saved.

      I don't clop, find the very idea of it to be very very weird and concerning (seriously they are PONIES, not exactly something you should find a attractive) however I do sometimes look at R34 and read clopfics cause I do find them hilarious in just how ludicrous they are.

      As an old school fan and collector ( think My Pretty Pony old school, dearies. As in 1981. Been a fan since they FIRST came out. XP ), I've been driving friends and family nuts with talk of ponies for a loooooooooooooooooooooooong time.

      I collect ponies from every generation ( almost 400 in the collection ), I draw ponies ( because I want to AND for commission orders ), I create customized ponies ( mostly insanely resculpted customs that SHOULD send me to the loony bin ), I watch the G1 and G4 / FiM cartoons, I do have the original G1 theme song AND the season 1 FiM theme song as ringtones on my Blackberry.

      And because I have no problem talking about my collection to friends and coworkers, it seems to help others break out of their fear of collecting and loving stuff that they themselves love.

      But clopping to ponies... dear God, no. MLP is not meant to be sexy in any way. Yipes!

      People wondering why there are votes for 'clopclopclop'... come on, is it that hard to understand?

      Point one... humans have a libido.

      Two... sexyness is, for a very big part, in the eyes. Same reason anime chicks are so popular: big, expressive eyes with long lashes.

      It's almost the oldest trick in the book. How do you make any cartoon character more attractive? Big eyes, long lashes. The artists behind Betty Boop already had this figured out.

      Add to that that these ponies are very likable characters and that they have pretty awesome voices, it's not too hard to understand that some people might like them enough to seriously check the 'clopclopclop' option in this poll.

      I didn't by the way. Raunchyness takes away from the cuteness for me. But I can easily understand why someone would.

    91. Solar Powered26. november 2011, kell 03:35

      Here's the thing with this poll and the clop option; it's really biased.

      I love this show and visit EQD every day, so I'm full on brony and proud. I know at least four other people that like the show and consider themselves bronies too, but none of them are core enough to visit EQD. I chat with them every weekend about the new episode and show them a few things that I thought were really cool from here, but it's all casual because they treat it just like any other good show.

      They definitely do not clop. They also definitely would not vote in this poll because they wouldn't even know it existed. Cloppers will, though, because they're deep enough in the fandom that they check here constantly. Because of this, the actual percentage of bronies that clop will likely be MUCH lower than the polls say.

      Granted, my small example can't be extended out to an entire community with complete accuracy, but the logic remains sound. A higher percentage of cloppers will vote in this poll than percentage of bronies because more cloppers are likely to see this.

      Oh and if you cared, I don't clop but I don't care if others do it as long as they keep their pics to themselves. I don't want to see it and as long as that's respected, we're cool.

      Ponies don't take up all my time but they are part of my browsing. I don't annoy people with things though I exchange links occasionally with others who like it and I read things though I read very quickly so it doesn't take me too long.

      I would have ticked 'toy collector' but the amount of toys actually available in the UK, without importing, is extremely limited. For example: in the Hasbro shop itself. In the US, 117 MLP items, 42 of which are G4. In the UK, there are 25 MLP items, 7 of which are G4. Not to mention the fact that the broadcaster's never shown any episodes from Suited for Success onwards, I think it's just going to end up getting cancelled over here.

I really enjoy visiting the brony memebase site on a regular basis. I stay away from fanfic, though I'm interested in reading Past Sins. I've bought two shirts and some stickers thus far (one of which I've put on my laptop, that's definitely helped in me "coming out" as a brony), and earned a Cheerilee McDonald's figurine as payment for a paint job (painting a small handheld-type item).

The only thing that bothers me about it, though, is if anyone stumbles across rule 34 pony fanworks and think all bronies are into 'clopping'. (Well, and 'clopping' to the CMCs or similarly-aged characters; that's just plain wrong.)

I wonder how far that would jump if it was Merch (or Official Merch) instead. That would give a reasonable idea of how much the Brony community supports the show.

I have no intention to buy the toys, because I do not like them much, they're too different from the show, but I got two "20% cooler" t-shirts and will totally wear them in public.

And because this fandom is crazy and loves to brutally subverting /everything/ the opposite is also true.

      That being said, I love the show for what it is and would watch it regardless. Wonderful characters, sweet friendships, some cool action and smooth animation. There's so much to love.

      I tend to think of it thusly:

      Imagine that you're attracted to a specific actress.... lets say Scarlett Johanson for the sake of this example.

      Also, reasonable theory about clopping, they're attracted to the character personalities first and foremost. The fact that they're ponies is insignificant past maintaining the character.

      Hmmm, I too was a bit shocked by how many ticked the "clop" box. On the other hand, I don't really find it very surprising.

      Some others have said it better than I can, but I don't think many people here who clicked clop clop clop are actually turned on by ponies, but more about their personalities and the fact they have huge eyes that work in tandem with fantastic facial expressions that give a sense of soul to the character.

      I'm sure most bronies have a particular character they most closely associate themselves with. I'm sure most bronies who love Twilight would love to have a girlfriend with that same type of personality.

      Sexual attraction is a weird thing that's often misunderstood, but I'm sure most people here can agree that sexual attraction is not just visually based. If it was, you wouldn't see instances of that smoking hot chick with that ugly dude.

      So in the end, I don't find it particularly surprising some people are sexually attracted to the characters in the show.

      The R34 could at least be humanized... If it's seriously just their personalities, it shouldn't matter to ya guys if they were humanized. At least that way, we can confidently say we don't watch pony porn, because we technically don't.

      Anyway, I'm going to be a bit more tolerant of this than I think I should. I just think people shouldn't say it out loud. People judge you--- no, all of us that way, like it or not. You're kinda harming us. Yeah, this can end up being seen by a non-brony who'll from then on be disgusted at us. But more important is fellow bronies seeing this and just completely lose their confidence in the fandom. I'm one example. I used to be very proud of this fandom. I started denying I'm a brony among my friends.

      And for the way you word it, some of you say as if it's weird and unnatural for people to be disgusted by the fact that people watch porn of ponies from a little girls' show. Not important whether it's actually bad or not. It's that it sounds bad. Really sick. It always will. You just gonna have to understand that.

      @DeRockProject
      You sort of have a point, and I do agree with a couple things you said, but let me present my side of the argument once more.

      Now I do understand that finding ponies sexually attractive is weird, it's definitely... different, I'm just saying some people should be more tolerant about it than they are, and especially should stop dismissing people who enjoy it right away, that's what grates on me the most. As I said before, I don't see why it's so hard to look the other way as long as it's hurting nobody, but that's just me I guess.

      Now with that being said, there will for sure be some bronies who are turned off by the mention of R34, that's extremely apparent in this comment section, and if they decide to leave the entire fandom because it exists then... well good riddance. I feel bad for them as they are missing out on something truly special here because they couldn't take the fact that people have differing interests. Oh well.

      However, I do agree with your point about being vocal about said interest, to a degree. Shoving your fetishes in other people's faces is no fun for anyone, be it ponies or whatever. There are places for it, FiM Chan or your own personal blog or anything that allows this kind of content sharing and interaction, I completely agree with that. I don't agree, however, with your point of not saying it out loud. As I said above, there are places where it can be discussed and places where it can't, but don't expect the guys who partake in R34 to just be silent and treat it as taboo, it'll only make you and them angry.

      And finally, we are watching "pony" porn, and although I do kind of wish it wasn't phrased like that, there can't really be another way lol. If it was just their personalities I'm pretty sure it would be strictly humanized but man, it just ain't haha. I'll also quickly add here that we bronies who indulge in R34 are not monsters, I'd like to think I'm a pretty nice guy and I know some really swell dudes who enjoy clopping now and then, it is really no big deal, I feel kind of bad myself blowing it up like this but some things I suppose need to be said so people can come to an understanding.

      So there are my thoughts on the matter, hope I didn't come across as a douche at any point as I understand it's fairly easy to do so through text. Also, this wasn't just a reply to you specifically so much as it was a reply to everyone in this section, can't we all just get along no matter what we find sexually appealing? It's such a small part of who we are as people and as a fandom.

      With so many people discriminating against artists, writers, and their audiences, based on ignorance, bias, and just plain making shit up...I'm starting to feel like I can't call myself a brony. Not if people like that go by that term.

      Totally agree bro. Thanks for posting that before I head out tonight, I appreciated reading it.

      The sad thing is so called "clopping" used to be such a very small part of my love of the fandom anyhow. I would say the ratio of "sexy or suggestive" pony stuff I viewed or read was about 5 percent tops of all the pony stuff I enjoyed.

      But, I have a dumb ass personality and I jump to the defense of anyone's right to make or enjoy art or whatever else they like with far too much gusto because it feels like there is a constant stream of hate towards it. You know? But, I think maybe both of us will be happier when we stop posting and reading here.

      @Basharoonskis

      Na don't worry, you're cool.

      I know you want people to be more tolerable, but it's just human nature. No matter what, you can't even hope to change human nature. Not unless you start something huge.

      I'd like to say that to some people, the brony fandom actually isn't that great. I used to love the fandom, and even now it's truly something special. It's produces a sizable amount of entertainment for me, and it's the cause for pretty much all my stress. Never in my life have I been so concerned of a fandom's appearance.

      But I can say anyone leaving is not missing out on anything. I mean, they already experienced it. What exactly did they miss out on? They saw it and they just saw that it's not for them. That's just all there is to it.

      I know what you think about what I said that those people have to hide their fetishes no matter what for the sake of the fandom. But it's just culture. Unless you want to go out there and change it, you're just going to have to either adhere to it or get mocked at for going against it. No one made the world like that, and you're just going to have to choose one or the other.

      I know you're not monsters. I can't change that you'll be seen as such anyway. I personally think it'll be less stressful if you just hide it. We all have something a bit fucked up, and I find it much easier to just hide mine.

      Also, this is going to be harsh. Cloppers are the main reason this fandom is worse off than it should be. I go to an anti-brony club, and their main insult to bronies is the clopping. That's... just something people should think about. Yeah? You gave them a lot of fuel. They can easily convert normal people to brony hating by just mentioning that one subject.

      Btw. Less people have a pony ringtone than clop. What's with that? Maybe I'll see to getting a pony ringtone! XD

If I stopped following a fandom because of every explicit picture I found I wouldn't be following anything, ever. Suck it up and calm down, this is the same thing that was trying to tear apart the disney vidding community on youtube.

      Fair greetings, Colts and Fillies!

      To answer the question, I'm the kind of brony that watches the seasons multiple times without being fed up of them. I grasp onto the lessons provided at the end, and honestly, I get emotional during the episodes (no joke, Ikr?), no matter how many times I've watched them over and over again. It just gets to me! I also learn all the songs by heart and sing 'n' whistle them everyday non-stop, including "Find a pet" (with the dialogues XD). Though there's a lot of "Brony Hatred" around these days, don't despair, ladies and gentlemen. I always keep one concept in mind: "Love & Tolerance" in a way of saying it, yes. With it, I remain calm in situations that would have people pitted against me in being a brony and watching My Little Pony. But, by showing no hatred whatsoever and a strong desire to love and respect others and the thoughts of others, I see those that bash me either become curious and see what I see, or respect me back! It's important to show Love, especially. Stay strong, my fellow brony friends, and take care!
      Keep in mind that friendship is indeed a "magical" thing, if I may say so myself, since I've seen its effects in the works.
