In my experience, people hate either our show or our fandom for a multitude of reasons. One of my very best friends, we'll call her Amy, finds the show overly sweet and absolutely hates the "sickly sweet shit" as she terms it. Another guy I speak with is afraid of the fanbase because the few people that are bronies that he knows are slightly more obsessed than the average fan. My own father and uncle hate us and our show because "that show's stupid and you're an idiot for watching it willingly" apparently. This upset me, actually, but helps to prove my point in this instance, I think. A fifth person I know doesn't hate our community or our show, but he finds the quality of MLP substandard and enjoys trolling us to get a rise out of people. Basically, there are a lot of people that 'hate' on us for different reasons. The main thing I've seen, as many of you probably have, is the sexist/ageism hate. However, there are other reasons that we take crap. One even being that some people just don't like MLP, and end up getting aggravated at hardcore bronies who insist on discussing it.
