I had to make something really scary, I think it turned out well. What do you think of it? I know what I think. AAAAAAAAAA MY EYES -
Thanks guys, I am sure I will enjoy my time here. With a lot of people with the same interest, what could go wrong?

Okay I agree with that. I was just having trouble understanding why females would rather be called bronies over something specific to their gender, but your example was helpful. P.S. See you on equestria tv again sometime. -
I'm assuming you are talking about the /b/ origin, but as I said before, the r isn't meaningless. The term brony was created due to males starting to watch the show, right? I would think they used the term bro, because they are male and because of b also meaning /b/.
-
But guys wouldn't start using pegasister, because the term is clearly gender specific. Why should brother not be treated as gender specific when it really is? Gamer isn't gender specific. Brother is, so when people call themselves 'gamer girls', they don't need to as the term isn't gender specific, but when females call themselves female bronies it sounds like a contradiction.

Brother and sister are different to male and female. I can see your point as our population as a whole is referred to as 'mankind'. But Brother and sister are gender specific really.

What if the term 'Pegasister' was started by a male? I think that would be more likely than brony being started by a female right?

Hello everypony, just a quick introduction. I like pony music and stuff. Favourite ponies: Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie - ah screw it I like a lot of ponies. Anyways, hopefully i'll be posting a bit.

It's just like males trying to call themselves 'Pegasisters', it's just not right. Yes, you could argue that the word brony originated from /b/ meaning that it's not gender specific; but the 'r' in brony didn't come out of nowhere. /b/ didn't call themselves 'bonys' did they? IMO female viewers of the show are just regular viewers, the difference being they are older than the intended audience. Btw, not trying to sound sexist or anything, just what I think.
