Well, I became a brony in January, so, about a year ago.
I had begun watching it at late-night on Netflix, with my volume extremely low, like, 6.
One night, in February, I asked my mom if she could hand me something real fast, and it was out of my room, so while she was doing that, I pulled up MLP on Netflix.
I said "Surprise!". She had knew, I felt very odd, as if I was in the middle of a speech, or something.
She didn't care all that much, matter of fact, she's into the show, BECAUSE of me.
I waited until my birthday-celebration (I get money and go buy myself some games and stuff.) and then, I bought some MLP merchandise. My dad saw it, and I was okay with it, since, you know, who buys something and hides it?
He saw it, and didn't care. I was a bit worried about telling him specifically, because I knew he made fun of bronies with some friends online... so I was worried he might think I am gay or something, I mean, if I was gay, I would just deny it and move on, until I came out of the closet, but I am not gay, or transgender, or bisexual, so yeah.
No one really cared, except one of my ex-best-friends on Xbox Live who insulted me consistently and lost contact with me for it. I, honestly, since we had been web friends for years, I was sad.
I hoped none of my other friends did said action, and later, I purchased a MLP Gamer Picture pack, and used it. They didn't care, except that one guy.
I messaged him a few times asking him why he de-friended / un-friended me and he said "Because you're a pony loving gay faggot!" in a message.
I, honestly, after that, reported him and blocked him, and of course avoided him.
Haven't talked to him since, and never plan on it.
(Too long didn't read edition: No one cared except one of my friends. My parents supported it, because why not? I'm going to EFNW 2015, as well.)
