    Who here is a Bronie?
    We know at least a few of you are MLP fans...

    http://www.wired.com/<wbr>underwire/2011/06/bronies-my-<wbr>little-ponys/


    Each day, out-of-work computer programmer Luke Allen self-medicates by watching animated ponies have magical adventures.

    The 32-year-old, who lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico, loves his daily fix of My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic, and he’s not alone. He’s part of a growing group of “bronies” (“bro ponies”) — men who are fans of a TV show largely intended for a much younger audience.“First we can’t believe this show is so good, then we can’t believe we’ve become fans for life, then we can’t believe we’re walking down the pink aisle at Toys R Us or asking for the girl’s toy in our Happy Meal,” Allen said in an e-mail to Wired.com. “Then we can’t believe our friends haven’t seen it yet, then we can’t believe they’re becoming bronies too.”

                    I am "happy" (gay)... absolutely... Just because I sing theme songs and showtunes does not however, make me a homosexual... (not that there's anything wrong with that as mentioned)

                    I'm looking for a show to watch and wired told me there are people out there in my age bracket that like watching cartoon pony's... I figure I could at least get some honest opinions here..

                      Judging by his PONY post and "his chicks" avatar you might
                      be on to something.

                        friendship is magic is an ok show, not nearly as good as the powerpuff girls was

                        there are a lot of "female" shows with male appeal, stuff like one tree hill, gossip girl, buffy, 90210, etc

                        every time someone criticized me for watching a show like that, i responded "so it's masculine to go to a strip club to see girls but somehow it's more masculine to watch men in tights (wrestling/football) than to watch cute girls in skimpy outfits (charmed)?

                          I don't believe there is a correlation between cartoon pony's and homosexuality...

                            I read it's the same chick who produced Powerpuff girls...

                            You forgot all the clinching in boxing... especially from the light weights...

                              ^^^
                              i know it's the same producer, that's why i made the comparison

                              she even admits she made powerpuff girls to reach all audiences like the simpsons, but fim was supposed to be primarily for young girls

                              good writing is good writing
