Tara’s stating the obvious. Somehow, I’m ashamed she had to do that.  
I mean, whatever happened to basic conversational manners? ‘Do not discuss masturbation in public’; seriously, it’s like oldest law in the book…

Awesome.

Shouldn’t I be doing that inside the closed stable?

Of course it doesn’t count here. This website automatically hides clop material, and since you’ll only see it if you unhide it then you shouldn’t really care what people say in the comments section.
 
I do think some people get pretty crass on DeviantArt, but I’m not really sure what could be done about that, since you’ll get those kinds of comments on any saucy material on DA, pony or otherwise.

Not being vocal in real life/places that don’t tolerate that sorta thing. Being vocal about clop on Derpibooru/pony chans doesn’t count.

@Vree:
 

 
HAHAHAHAHAHAH, OH MY SIDES!

What Bb said

^yep

I think it should go without saying that you don’t talk about the things you masturbate to.

I find it ironic how Gitton is talking about not being vocal about the clop subject, yet he is a very VERY vocal pony pervert.

i don’t think it’s the cloppers who talk

Hmm…..I could sell my personal story and BECOME FAMOUS!

Well at least she still likes us.

If I was asked if I clop, first I would ask the reporter if Howard Stern faps to women o whoever he likes.

All things pass. But on the off chance the media does want to know about your masturbation habits always tell them that you are a normal person that only masturbates to real life exploited women who may or may not be forced into their situation on the internet.

Gitton, the perceived norm is a middle aged, divorced white guy with 2.5 kids.
 
I don’t really want to be part of that norm.

@Gitton  
normal is a very subjective term. constantly changing all the while. not too long ago it wasn’t normal for blacks and whites to attend the same school, for woman to wear pants …  
normal is an illusory state, the only constant is change

we are all outcasts of the norm, you just have to not give a fuck and know when to stay quiet….

@vree  
no, trying to explain it and making it seem normal which it is will only make it seem worse idiots will begin to think you’re deluding yourself think about furries it’s the same deal except maybe worse

Clop, same but i hear such interesting tales of them xP

Poor Tara, she’s taking it so hard. (Or Strongly?)  
I don’t think the rest of us can disown any part of our membership though, especially for something as innocent as masturbating, something adults and teens just do.  
On the internet, everyone will know what the truth is anyway.  
But it is true that the outside world always overreacts because it has a warped world view. Something like that if it is made into a story and exaggerated would even influence Hasbro.
 
But still, I can not bring myself to lie. Isn’t there a way to convince world not about that such things don’t exist, but that they are so widespread that they shouldn’t really be considered unique to one group?  
Then again, knowing how many other subcultures hide…

That should have been obvious from the start  
and closed stables? I know it’s a pun and I know what it means yet it still doesn’t seem to make sense

Who are these “normal” people you speak of gitton?
 
I can tell you I’ve never met one.
