2011 is when things really kicked off, the fandom started making a tonne of music (classics like Rainbow Factory).

Embarassing moments, eh? Well, my computer is clogged with porn of all kinds, and this one time one of my classmates (I told him to stay out of my skype, my desktop, my downloads, my documents and my browsing history) accidentally stumbled onto my clop images. It was hilarious, actually. X3

Dear Blue, I don't want to watch any movies with you because you refuse to shave your armpits and that really stinks. Sincerely, your lover.

Now here's where I can agree with you. Bronies, as a defined term, fits all of us here, but as a label, I agree that it should not be used. No one wants to be labelled anything unwillingly, and especially when it's a negative label..

Mate. The definition of the term "Brony" is quite clear. It is used to describe a fan who is older than the target demographic for the show, and generally used for males. So if you call yourself a fan, fan = brony, so you can't escape the inevitability of being reffered to as a brony. It's like, someone who is black will probably be referred to as "Black". Nothing mean or racist at all, we all do it. The criteria for that is having dark skin. So if you have dark skin, you are black. This term isn't mean or anything, it's just easier to say than "African-American", or whatever race that person is from. Someone who is an older fan of the show fits into the criteria of the term Brony, therefore, whether you like it or not, you're a brony. Again, there is nothing mean intended from this term, if you look at the criteria. I have nothing against disliking being called a brony and saying not to refer to you as such...But really, you're all bronies :U
