Ew. And you make very good points. I suppose I want to give the benefit of the doubt to those fans that don't indulge in that skeeviness, but they don't seem to be the very vocal ones.

I don't think those are the same though. For one thing the Avengers fans were adults campaigning for changes to an adult franchise. For another, I don't think there is any other fandom like the Bronies. Maybe that's why it's so easy to pick on them and boil the fandom down to "icky they like girl things!"?

Browncoats don't often jerk off to cartoon horses, for one. I get it, I do, it's a nerd thing, all colors of the rainbow and all that, BUT IT'S A LITTLE GIRL'S TOY! I'd be weirded out by a woman with a collection anything like one guy I know.

I honestly just chose those two for the alliteration.

Except without the inexplicable back-and-forth conversation that makes you wonder if someone is coming back to the same stall to check his messages.

A lot of my problems with Bronies can be summed up by the fact that the fandom at large gets offended when reminded they are not the target audience and Hasbro/the MLP team is not considering them in every action they take with the show.

I'm perplexed by all of these defensive comments. I hang out with tons of Bronies and they acknowledge the inherently ridiculous aspects of their own fandom and have senses of humor about the same. Guess what? Every large group of fans has its weirder elements. Joking about those things can be fun! :D

Yes, I too wish to make fun of every fandom equally. But we must take these things one comedic video at a time— otherwise, we're going to have one neverending montage of ridiculousness, and frankly, we already have Tumblr for that.

Men aren't allowed to break their gender role. If they do they are ridiculed for it by both sexes. Also probably doesn't help that a lot of bronies are creepy.

I feel kinda bad for Bronies. There are plenty who legitimately just like the cartoon. I like it, too, but since I'm a girl, it's acceptable. But since dudes like a show for little girls, this makes them weird. Come on. Weren't we just celebrating a family that let their son wear tutus? :/ I can understand being…

I hope he and Allison choose to have 10 babies...they will be the dancingest babies in the whole wide world.

I was like "WHO IS THAT GIRL WHO IS NOT YOUR FIANCEE TW—-oh, it's not Twitch. Carry on, then."

A few years ago I went to a theater showing of Labyrinth. It was one of those fancy, smoke salmon sandwiches kind of theaters, and the crowd was mostly 30 and up. Despite the "maturity" of the crowd and the fact that most of us had seen the movie many times, every time David Bowie's crotch was on screen, the audience…

I feel like it's been forever since I've seen a clean-shaven Joe Manganiello. He's one of the rare men who I feel like pulls off bearded and clean-shaven equally well.

It's interesting how 25 is the cut-off point for gross, controlling, arrogant, vain men. Because 25 is the age at which your brain (allegedly) officially stops growing and maturing. It's part of the reason why rental companies don't loan cars out until you're 25. It is, arguably, when you gain a sense of self.

Apparently Presbyterians in Texas....

I normally dislike the majority of GIFs I see, but this one makes up for every single bad one I've ever seen. Bravo.....bravo! (clapping and fawning all over your genius).

I am just in the process of introducing my 12-year-old daughter to the magic of David Bowie. She's super-into "Five Years," "Ziggy Stardust," and "Starman," because duh. I explained that her grandmother, her beautiful aunt (my little sister, 11 years younger than me), and I had all nursed life-long crushes on David…

I always wear a bra with my pajamas. too much friction otherwise

There is no power in the universe greater than the attractive force of David Bowie's area.
