I kinda agree with BronyHeresy. Not about gay ships or anything, but about Appledash specifically. I personally think they have too much in common in all the wrong ways (like being too competitive at the same things), and way too many differences when it comes to important things like emotional maturity for it to ever work out. Aside from that it’s just personal preference… way too much testosterone imo and they work better in pairings like Rarijack and Flutterdash/Rainbowpie or something which balances their personalities out better. Just my opinion.
Did you or did you not see how she reacted to essentially everyone else but Fluttershy?
Flutters is the only one she’d keep in touch with long-term.
Also gotta go with Monkey about the dress. She was diggin’ Rarity’s duds. Applejack just wants to throw’em off and get back to working. I daresay I know her character more than Merriweather at least.
I’d have put Rainbow Dash in the dress. Despite some impressions, I think Applejack is way more butch. Dash seems to like dresses when she puts two seconds of effort into her appearance.
@BronyHeresy Logic only works if you look at an issue from different angles. You have proven to incapable of that, so your logic made you look like an insensitive idiot tonight.
@BronyHeresy Is that reason enough for them to never even consider love for each other? No. So get over it.
@BronyHeresy Hypocrisy? I respect your opinions, and just find flaws in them on a intellectual basis. What I do not respect is insensitive and self-rightous assumptions you are making on couples everywhere. There is a line between the two, and you crossed it without caring because you seem to be an insensitive asshole who thinks the ‘hypocrisy’ card can solve every failed argument.
You’re equating familial love with romantic love between two people who aren’t related, in an attempt to belittle a hypothetical marriage between two fictional ponies of the same gender.
@CronoM
I’d like to point out how INCREDIBLY hypocritical it is for you to call me self-righteous when you’re the one telling me to go to hell for my opinions.
On a totally unrelated note, I hate autocorrect so much.
@CronoM
All the points you make are fair. Rainbow Dash rescuing people is a fine example of being selfless. However, there are multiple facets to her rescue(?) of Applejack; One, she really likes Applejack, and wouldn’t want to see her go. Two, she has been through a lot with Applejack, and that, through reasons which I don’t entirely understand, seems to strengthen our bonds to someone. Even supposing Rainbow Dash and Applejack are both lesbians, or at least bi, and they love each other, is that reason enough for them to get married? No. Do I love my sister? Yes. If she weren’t my sister, and I had the same affection for her, would I pursue a romantic relationship with her? Never in a million years. Brotherly (or sisterly) love, does not translate to romantic love.
Well Niggoslav is completely clueless to how Rainbow Dash’s character is like, so he’s easily ignorable. Now for BronyHeresy, who is only slightly less clueless.
@BronyHeresy A selfless act to another person by Rainbow Dash? You mean like saving people by pure heroic instinct like Rarity and little kids? Or on a personal level, how about Rainbow Dash going through hell and high water to get Applejack back no matter what. I don’t normally ship, but despite the continuous fuel to the fire the average episodes give, RD’s desperation to get AJ back in that episode gives very little room for doubt to the shippers.
Its kind of bold thing. Pairings like ApplejackxRainbow Dash and SpikexRarity were already big shipping material before season 2 came out. When they did get an episode to strongly address their relationship, instead of casting it to aside as ‘just normal friends’ or ‘just a little crush’, they reinforce it.
@BP
I take love very seriously. Infatuation (I can’t believe I’m AGREEING with our resident Neo-Nazi, but hey, Hitler ate sugar) is NOT love. What David and Johnathan had was love. What most people today have is just infatuation. Why do you think so many RL relationships/marriages lose their lustre later on down the road? Because the people involved never genuinely loved one another in the first place is my answer.
…setting the blatant homophobia aside, I’ll just leave you too your opinion then, since I you really don’t seem to get what I’m saying about relationships coming and going in different forms, and personal growth through being in love.
Everyone thinks they know about compatibility and what ships are “right”, when we have different mindsets and experience on the subject.
The fact that Dash is easily the most flawed of the mane 6 is what makes her so shippable, it makes for great character exploration and a worth while challenge story telling wise, to see said flaws would factor and be overcome/compromised for another.
But once again. I’ll just leave you to whatever you feel is “right”.
Ya’ll using the wrong words. RBD only shows INFATUATION
That’s why it’s so easy for her to lose attention when it comes to her idols/BFFs. As soon as someone gets more ‘coolpoints’ on her cool-o-meter, she dumps the previous one. She probably would have stopped associating with AJ upon meeting Soarin’ and Spitfire for really reals (until the eventual fangirl dream crush sequence anyway) if not for the responsibility of the elements. Then of course she’d come crawling back afterwards.
She’s essentially still a 10 year old fangirl in how she handles relationships.
@Blackbewhite27
Right off the bat. Yes, that just about describes me. When I’m not lying through my teeth, (quite often) or being facetious, you can count on me to be brutally honest. I do not hide my opinions on what I believe are important issues.
While I believe that Rainbow Dash is shippable, Love is an action word. Until RD starts to show me a little more selflessness, I don’t think she’s really right for anypony. A spouse-to-spouse relationship needs to be a deeply committed one, and right now, the one Rainbow Dash really loves the most, is herself.
