I even made a rather cruel joke about making a Madness: Project Nexus Arena Mode mod....... one month later I'm watching the show, reading fanfics, and generally addicted to ponies. Now he teases me

I think that was some good point that you have given.But my elder bro didn't realize that I like MLP...only my sister and a few of my classmates know about it.

Heh, if I ever became a Brony my parents would probably disown me or send me to an insane asylum, the Brony Kid in my little brother's school already has a hell of a hard time for what I've heard from him. MLP really doesn't seem near as big in the UK as it is in the US, probably because of it only being on the Hub, and not everyone has Sky or Virgin... including me.

That's essentially what happened to me, except it was just my dad and he did it through smart ass comments. I had to tell him it was all a joke to get him out of my hair.

Any parent who disowns their kid just for liking MLP must be a real big asshole.

So what if you like a little girl's show? It doesn't kill you or turn you into a bad person. Hell, it doesn't always make you weird either. There are plenty of bronies who don't go out of their way to look like dorks or weirdos.

That's, sadly, not what society says today.

"You like MLP? You're a pedophile cuz you like a little girls show!" is all I hear nowadays. Seriously, I agree with you. There's nothing wrong with liking a show. In fact, the brony fanbase is rather huge now. It makes me wonder how many little girls watch MLP anymore. I doubt any do. I'm pretty sure it's gotten to the point to where the men watching it is the new normal.

I'm pretty sure that everybody else hates bronies because some bronies are stupid and they make idiots of themselves on the internet, going as far as to praise the show like it's a god. Like my English teacher said, "it takes one person to set up the image for an entire group".

I agree with both of you, but my dad is a complete jerk sometimes (and so is the rest of my family but we aren't talking about them). He would nag me till either he or myself dies, and believe me when I say, I'd have to shoot myself to get away from it.

You know,I think I heard a hater said:"One does not simply shout out that MLP is some good ass show or something."
Yeah I know that,but that does not give the haters the opportunity to start a flame war between bronies and them.To this very day,flame wars between haters and bronies are still going on.
This bullsh*t will never end.
I agree with you that the society does not say that liking a little girl's show is not wrong.Not trying to offend them,but some haters in the society still call the MLP fans gays,pedophiles,lesbians,retards,dicks,stupid assholes,or whatever sh*t they're calling.
Seriously,haters are not giving up till this day,so we just let the haters hate.
And I admit that I am a MLP fan despite being a male.

Okay, I was slightly exaggerating on the disowning thing.
