      Bronies are like furries in a way, if you look at the big picture for a second tou realize they run the (digital) world

        For me as outsider they look even more desturbing, it’s about a kids show and they dress up really fucking weard but I guess it could be a unfair assumption for om my side too, kinks are always kind of weard!

          Not a brony myself either. But most of them are just fans of that show, its not just a kink, a lot just really like the pony show.

            Interesting, I thought it was comparable to Furries or am I wrong about those too?

              Depends on what you mean by ‘comparable’! I think the two fandoms are quite similar, just that bronies focus on being a fan of one series whereas furries are more fans of the idea of anthropomorphized characters, or animal-ish characters.

              And there’s a lot of differences between fans, too. Just in like any fandom. I’m pretty sure for some it might be a kink like the stereotype says, but other MLP fans use it as a vehicle for self-expression or self-discovery through the prosocial messages and themes. Ultimately it’s a complicated topic that one could write a lot about!
