Did I already post in this thread? I genuinely have no clue... I don't actually use my OCs for anything, they're usually just designs, so I have a lot of Alicorn OCs just because I think they look pretty...but most Alicorn OCs that have actual biographies and personalities are admittedly a little off, to put it gently.

Bronies defying gender roles.... A bunch of nonsense?
ToastedScone replied to CupcakeEmpire's topic in Sugarcube Corner
Honestly, I don't see watching a pony show as defying anything except maybe society's standards for adults (meaning that you SHOULD like gore and more mature media, I suppose? I don't know, I've luckily never really been subject to these). Maybe it's because I'm a girl and can't see it from a male standpoint, but I REALLY don't think just watching a show for girls is defying gender roles; if guys were dressing in pink and frills and cutesy stuff BECAUSE of the show then yes, that's a defiance of gender roles, but just watching the show by itself is just that, watching a show. The early fandom in particular though really was desperate to still be seen as manly despite liking the show, and it got to a point where the "hurr durr ponies don't make me gay! I'm not gay!" spiel started to feel...kind of vaguely homophobic instead of defying of gender stereotypes? I don't know how else to put it really, but again, it's just watching a show. That in itself isn't a huge defiance!- 76 replies

Ok, I have a LOT to say about being a girl. First off, I absolutely cannot stand the rampant sexualisation that almost every woman faces (97% of women have been sexually harassed in some way); I was an early bloomer myself and was unlucky enough to have certain uncontrollable traits that I was relentlessly sexualised and slut shamed for. I hated my body for years, I seriously thought I'd end up as a hooker just because of how my body had naturally formed. It's only since I met my wonderful girlfriend that I've begun to understand that my body is just a body and shouldn't be sexualised unless I say so, but even nowadays I'm terrified of catcallers and I generally avoid men after dark. Second up, what's up with teaching girls that a boy bullying or hurting them means they fancy them?! Again, from personal experience, there was a boy in my class who used to pull my hair, call me names, all of that junk...and people just laughed it off as him fancying me. I don't care if he did or not, why should I (at the age of TWELVE!) have to laugh actual violence off because "oh, he likes you!"?! It's disgusting. Lastly, though this is more of an issue with sexual education, why are only girls themselves taught about periods? We go into the world and get mocked because it's "that time of the month" and people don't take us seriously, and men often find periods completely disgusting. The sexual education system, at least in my opinion, has this weird view of women being pure and not teaching boys any of the ugly things our bodies do...which only FURTHERS the harassment and objectification women experience! Women are not dolls to be played with. We are equal beings. Okay, this ended up being a lot longer than I intended...but there, I got my feelings out

Unbelievably angry dinosaurs. They threw the meteor up in their rage, not realising what they'd done... Why is it that sometimes food tastes like something completely unrelated smells?- 3,847 replies

Create a stupider MLP episode title than the one above
ToastedScone replied to Octavia Heartstrings's topic in Forum Games
Twilight Sparkle gets into a heated online argument about how AWFUL the remakes of her favourite game look, despite having hounded the company for years to get it... "I want it to look just like how I remember!" ... "Why does it look like that?! It's running on (unbranded current gen pony console)! It's terrible! I can't support this company anymore!" ... *buys it anyway* -
It's not my cup of tea personally, but my gf's older brother used to be super into it, so I guess it's just a community you've got to search for instead of stumbling into! Am I the only one who can't get Newgrounds games to play without it crashing my pc? (I just want to play Friday Night Funkin', man.)

animation Longest Anime You've Watched?
ToastedScone replied to Fluttershutter's topic in Media Discussion
It's not one whole show exactly, but I've watched about 95% of the Fate series, including the magical girl spinoff, Carnival Phantasm, Cooking with Emiya Family and ALL of the Stay/Night routes. It's really not necessary to watch all of that to get into the show, but I decided to torture myself -
gaming Where do you buy your video games from?
ToastedScone replied to Kyoshi Frost Wolf's topic in Media Discussion
Honestly it's some kind of mystery...I give my parents the money, they get the game. My dad has some kind of hidden talent of finding games at slashed prices, so...as long as I give him what I owe, he'll find games for me- 68 replies

Movie/TV show genres you can't get into
ToastedScone replied to Kyoshi Frost Wolf's topic in Media Discussion
I don't know if it counts as a genre, but anime/other media with a harem kind of plot. They feel really fake and the girls never have any character outside of "I think the male protagonist is hot". That, and end-of-the-world style movies where the main characters ALWAYS live! It's the end of the world, HOW do these people survive EVERY SINGLE TIME?! -
