So, at this point, every new thing that comes out is just shipping them more.  
We could continue to play the tag games where someone tags lyrabon, shipping, lesbian and then someone else removes shipping and lesbian (which is incorrect because lyrabon is a ship name), but it’s pointless and I’m tired of having to make a decision on every single screencap of them together.
 
There is one permanent solution:Lyra and Bon Bon hugging etc. in a screencap? Tag it lyrabon, shipping, and lesbian.  
I ran it by the admins a while back and it was approved, but didn’t implement it because I had a slim bit of hope the problem would go away. Then this image came up: >>952011t (merged)

We can’t stop it, it has already begun. And yeah, I don’t think it could be anymore obvious unless they said “lesbian” or “girl/marefriend” in the show.

Pretty much. You can argue semantics all you want, but the instant you go with something like a heart shaped closing frame with the two huging really close, you’re pretty much one step from flat out calling them a couple.

Frankly, I think if they want to call them a couple, then they need to just come out and say it. If they can’t do that, then it’s not an official pairing. One step away is still one step away.

@Millennial Dan  
Only chance of seeing that is if Hasbro says “screw you” to quite a few of their international markets. And that isn’t happening anytime soon unless Russia or places like Turkey truly fuck up.

It does, given that Russia and Turkey aren’t exactly too keen on same-sex relationships in media. The reason you see shows do it is because they’re likely only airing in the US/Canada area. Plus they dont have to risk a massive loss in profits.

@And Brother I Hurt People  
Well, like I was trying to say before, I don’t see why we should be interested in what their reasons are. I’m only looking at things from the perspective of officially confirmed or not.
 
@soundtea  
Suspect perhaps, but at most that’s still just “shiptease”. Besides, this show puts hearts everywhere, even in the title.

If Hasbro wanted to call Lyra and Bon Bon lesbians, they could probably just change the words in the subtitles or translations when they air in areas hostile to homosexuality, and avoid or edit out kissing or overtly lesbian things. I’m not an anime expert, but I know Sailor Moon has done it, although maybe not with too much success.

Why should Hasbro have to specifically announce in so many words that Lyra and Bonbon are lesbians? They’ve never been challenged to come out and say “Cadance and Shining are indeed meant to be a straight couple” for everyone to accept what their affection for each other clearly shows.

@Background Pony #3776  
They still haven’t fucked on screen, nor had a foal. Shining’s never even gotten an erection around her. Maybe Cadance is a fag hag, and Shining is a gay fan of his feminist lesbian icon, like Andrea Dworkin and John Stoltenberg. They can love each other without being sexually attracted to each other.
 
You just assume they’re straight, on the basis of unconfirmed implications of their obvious affection for each other. Much like how Lyra and Bonbon seem quite obviously affectionate for each other now…

Okay I admit I was kind of a dick for that.
 
But do you understand what you’re saying? You say they aren’t straight, yet they had a big wedding for them, one of the early comic arcs was him falling in love with her. And they even have a kid on the way going by cons and the leaked poster.
 
If that doesn’t mean they’re straight for each other, then I have no idea what is.

How this turned from “Obvious shipteasing” discussion to “Totally not straight even though they’re married and in love and kissed at least a few times” of another pairing, I’ll never understand…

The site already does make some assumptions, like that cloudchaser and flitter are sisters (shipping them is tagged incest). I don’t see why this is any different, especially when it’s so heavily implied.

@Ferrotter  
Ferrotter. No. Bad weasel.
 
@cheezedoodle  
“Heavily implied” is still a matter of opinion. They’ve left things open ended enough so that people can interpret things however they like. I wasn’t aware of what you’re talking about with Cloudchaser and Flitter, but that practice seems pretty illogical, and doesn’t strike me as a good precedent-setter.
