You’re good, you can slap me if I’m totally out of line. I probably internalized the cultural response to Bronies and, really, haven’t thought about MLP for 15 years.
I mean, a good friend of mine watches MLP because it allows her to live through a tiny bit of the childhood as a girl she wasn’t allowed to have due to … well, being trans and being traumatized out of liking girly stuff when she was a kid, so it’s kinda harsh to come here and hear some dude make a connection to a “weird pedo thing”. Especially given that whole groomer discourse the fash keep harping on about. I get that’s not your intention, but bruh.
Completely valid, and as I said I’m sure there are genuine adult fans as well. I’m surely tainted by my exposure to the Brony internet and the fact that everyyyything that comes with it is not always especially savory.
Having said that, please don’t quote things I didn’t say. I’ll self-crit.
