Women: when a guy tells you he’s a brony, what goes through your mind?

20 comments

1. A brony, as in a My Little Pony fan? As in an adult man who’s a fan and probably sexualizes a horse cartoon made for small children?

   Gross and creepy, to say the least.

2. What the hells a brony?? 🤔

3. [removed]

4. People still call themselves Brony? 😂😂

5. It depends on the context. If I asked him if there are any shows he enjoys? Fine, whatever.

   If we’re just making smalltalk and he drops that in there? Kinda weird.

6. In The Year of our Lord 2023? Nah. Red flag.

7. I mean… I’m not about to yuck anyone’s yum, but for me personally… that’s a no. But you do you. As long as you’re not harming anyone, all power to you.

8. “Oh cool! Wait, I hope he’s not one of the creepy ones.”

   I knew lots of people in college who were bronies/pegasisters and weren’t weird about it. There’s nothing wrong with liking cartoons! MLP: FIM was a genuinely fantastic show, more people should watch it. 🙂

9. It entirely depends on why he is imparting this info. Are we a friend talking about kinks? Ok. I’ve been told weirder stuff.

   Is he just offering this info out of the blue? Abort abort abort

10. I work with dolls. Probably half of the collectors are men. Better than half of doll designers are men. If a man tells me he’s a Brony, it’s really no thing.

11. Never heard of that term

12. I immediately start plotting my exit. Out of the conversation, the room, the building, that relationship, all of it. Like Homer backing into the bushes.

13. No

14. “Ok, cool, I guess. You do you, kiddo.”

15. I offer a hoofbump.

    Of course, I’m married to a Brony, too.

16. When I hear Brony, I think of one of my wife’s favorite nicknames for me, Jabroni… she says that to make fun of me so yeah, do with that what you will

17. I was thinking Jabroni.

18. Nope, I need to curtail this convo.
