But Laruen Faust makes it very clear that MLP: FIM is a show for all the family to enjoy and that includes grown up males and females. If you weren’t thought about while the production team plotted out their target audience, then I guess all those booze jokes, adult movie references (The Big Lebowski) and mature themes were for nothing. Despite this, I agree with your point, although I wouldn’t call people questioning bronies “sick and wrong”. It’s good to question things. For all the general public know, bronies are sick and wrong. The problem is some people just assume this and don’t look into it any further and that’s the major problem here.
