I’m female so by the technical definition I’m LITERALLY not a brony  
I’d be…like, a sisony  
yes I know the common term is pegasister

Can such a person state definitions of those words?

Although, I don’t mind the term, that guy looks a bit like myself… Minus the number of items.

I’m in despair.

I don’t own any merchandise, watch the show only occasionally (but every week if new episodes come out), don’t do much fan art, haven’t attended a convention… But I’m fine with being called a brony. In my opinion the only qualification is that you are a guy who likes the show.

I prefer the noble term of horsefucker.

I like how this is supposed to be troll, but people actually like it. I like it too.

@LightningBearer  
All this.  
Every person I’ve met in the, “I absolutely love MLP FIM, buy toys, go to meets and write fan fiction… but I’m not a brony!” club are absolute asshats.  
Of course, it has only been three out of, about, a group of around twenty, but still, no positive impressions there.

Heck, even I agree that the word “brony” itself is kind of silly. That’s not really what I was talking about. I was just criticizing a mentality that I often see.

ponyfag is the superior label anyways

@LightningBearer  
Considering that I’ve actually written clop I’m not exactly in a position to claim moral superiority to anybody. I just hate the word brony.

/mlp/ in a nutshell.

I don’t mind if people simply don’t identify themselves as “bronies”. That, in and of itself, is their business.
 
What I take issue with is the fact that a lot of the “I’m not a brony; I’m an MLP fan” crowd are dicks who act as though their rejection of them term makes them superior in some way. You can reject the label all you want, but you’re still in the same boat as the rest of us, and if you’re not prepared to deal with the baggage that comes with that - people giving you funny looks, assuming the worst about everything you do, and lumping you in with whatever stereotypes they’ve latched onto - then a simple matter of term-usage will never be anything more than mental masturbation.

@gasmaskangel  
This.

I think everyone has met this guy.

I say this only because I think brony is an incredibly stupid term.

i’m not a brony, i just come to this site because my mom makes me

@derroflcopter  
This is how I am.

I hate it when people say this. It’s like they’re in denial.
 
They don’t even have to think of themselves as bronies, but they need not bitch when they’re referred to as one.
