Hello, everypony. Yes, I realize this post is over a year old but I'm still responding anyway. So if you would kindly give me your attention I'd appreciate it. Now I would first of all start off with commenting on Killian Jone's title. The title says "How we should deal with clopping and cloppers" this I would think implies they are a problem of sorts. It's like saying how to deal with gay people, how we should deal with [insert ethnic minority of your respective nation here], or how we should deal with bronies even, (of course that isn't a thing here but it likely is on other forums). In other words it sounds like they are a pest of sorts. The truth is most of the time minorities are looked down upon which is why there are gay pride parades and there aren't straight pride parades. It's not just because they want everyone to know they are gay. It's because of how for a very long time between post Christian-Rome and now the response has been don't talk about these things (modern day, with exceptions) or you would be persecuted or killed (mostly a few centuries ago). If you start talking about the elephant in the room you promote understanding and not just sneering and jeering about those people who have said preference or said action. It then stops becoming an elephant and a majority grow to accept it or at least more people do. I am in no way saying cloppers struggle or bashing is the same as gay peoples but I am saying similar approaches are taken in how they react towards cloppers and gays. It's the same reason people tell others they are bronies. George Takai did a segment on just that (people that just didn't want to see anyone kissing) when he did an experiment. It showed that that was not the case and that it was indeed due to their orientation (in other words people thought it was okay to see heterosexual couples kiss but not homosexuals). Add onto this the taboo of sexual activity in European cultures and it makes clopping a topic that people "just don't want to hear about" or that anyone who agrees with is sick. That's why people like Pony Phuckcast made the video Why Bronies Masturbate to Ponies - (Clopping Explained)-. It's to promote understanding and have people stop treating it like it's something dirty. Of course not all people that clop to ponies are like this but there are different kinds of people in all groups. Although I believe I understand where you are coming from when you say why you dislike people talking about it because those outside of the brony community are always like "OMG that's the show that people jack off to the ponies" and thus people look at it disapprovingly or it's another reason to cross it off their list. As I've already said before that's why they talk about it, so people don't have reactions like that because they connect with people that do just that clop to ponies. The thought is likely to eventually have people stop getting their panties in a wad about it and stop treating it like it's just such a terrible thing and just accept everything as a spectrum and not so black and white. If I have misrepresented the views of anyone who is gay or clops I am sorry and please feel free to correct my inaccuracies.
