I wouldn't say the other ponies aren't compassionate about their duties or fields, but in an earlier post I mentioned that I sense a deep seated and long lasting passion for her work. But that could either be my own ability to actually relate to her on the fashion level (having gone to fashion design school) or the fact she's the artist of the group. To create real world equivalents, artist types often stay in their fields longer than other professions or just retire on 'paper' but still active in the field. Art is life. Twilight would be Academics fields, Dash is Athletics and Sports Fields, Pinkie Pie is PR and other Social Events fields, Applejack would be in the Agriculture or even blue collar/labor Fields, and Fluttershy would be in the field of Zoology and possibly even Medical field to an extent. Many of these other professions and life works usually have some expected retirement age while artists often do their thing until the day they die. Again, not saying that any of these professions with real people or with ponies have any less drive from their demographics (I know players love their sport, and people get personal fulfilment from healing people, etc) but in something like sports, farms, and medical there is only so much you can do before it's time to put down the ball, research paper, scalpel, or wrench. But when it comes to art, it's never finished. History if full of writers, painters, actors, directors, musicians, and other creatives that died with unfinished work.

Well count me in this apparently small pool of males that have Rarity as #1 pony. Sure, she may act outside her element sometimes, but that makes her very dynamic and real. Also, I do relate to her very well, being one of (i suppose) very few male bronies that share her sense of class and style to the point of even going to fashion design school. But I would agree that the larger portion of males in general just can't relate to her or characters even like her. The others have much more common themes and behavior that plenty of males could see in themselves or at least enjoy (partying, competition, nerdyness, etc) while Rarity and her entire manner of character is just "the other" But maybe if her behavior could be looked at deeper they'll see something to relate to. Like while the others have a lot of drive for a goal (like Dash) I feel Rarity is the one with the most deep-seated and honest passion for what she does. And maybe it's that passion that she has so much of that it seeps out into the more apparent generosity with others.

She speaks in Mid-Atlantic English As for my own views, she it definitely best pony and I very much identify as the Rarity amongst my friends lol. Oh, and we both do share a sense of fashion and style, I even went to Fashion Design School for two years I just love her characterization and depth, and relate so well to her mannerisms. She needs more lines and episodes.

Well, not going with a literal opposite of the known elements of harmony, but rather the other side of the definition in meaning things that keep people separated, we'd have quite a few things. Things like fear, insecurity, obsession, superiority, unknown, jealousy, malice, zealotry/dogma, etc.

I think that would've been pretty cool. There's a sore lack of fleshed out and involved male ponies, good guy or otherwise. Kinda hoping season 4 gets some more colt/stallion presence on screen and in the stories.

I died through the whole thing, but lost it best with the line "WOW! An ill advised tattoo!" The 'message board rant' thing was also a nice touch. xD

Anyone seen this yet? I do hope folk here can have a sense of humor about themselves lol. But here is a very well done fake commercial for Brony toys for girls. My Little Brony Commercial I mean, you do know some of this is true
