How easy is it for people to know you're a brony?

[Stone Cold Applejack 381]

I don't mean havin a neckbeard or anything else. Based on behavior and clothing appearl how easy is it for people to know you like MLP?

 

For me it's not very easy.

 

P.S. Applejack is best pony. <-That will end on Oct 8

Not easy at all. I don't flaunt it around. But that's how I am with everything I like. I don't wear Fender or Legend of Zelda apparel. The only way for you to know I was a brony if you don't know me on that level is

1) I really trust one enough to tell them about it. 

2) The get my PC's password and dig through my files or 

3) They see my comic books in my really high up cabinet that most people aren't tall enough to reach. 

 

I'm not all that open about MLP, really. 

[Rainblow H. Ash 5,091]

Most of my friends and family know but that's just because they've been over my apartment and have seen my pony merchandise.

 

Outside of that, most people don't know. Looking at me, it would be impossible to tell. Though I do wear Transformers and GI Joe hats and shirts a lot, so they'd at least know I'm a fan of some other Hasbro properties.

[NotoriousSMALL 1,984]

Only way people would know is to recognize the sunset shimmer fan art or dig through this pile of papers in this mail tray beside my monitor with some pony drawings in it.

[SwigglySwiggly 358]

No-one can tell, I look like an average (sexy) person. 

But if you listen closely, I never say yes. I say "eeyup". That's how I usually get caught.

[Blue The Pikachu 537]

Let's see... I wear a beanie with Derpy on it, my bag has Doctor Hooves on it, I occasionally wear a pony shirt, my 3DS has the mane 6 on it, and I have a bracelet that says brony... REALLY EASY!! XD

[Azure Envy 1,092]

If I'm wearing my Derpy or BABScon shirt or Vinyl Scratch/Octavia hoodie.

 

If they see my computer wallpaper/slideshow screensaver of which is 95% pony.

 

If they are subject to my MMS texts which are about 95% pony depending on the lucky recipient.

[Andaasonsan 3,205]

I have pony wallpaper on my phone so I suppose if you're looking over my shoulder you'd know, but so far no one has said anything.

 

Lately I try to be a bit more subtle with my merchandise and go for things that don't look like much of anything unless you're familiar with the property. For instance I have the official Max Payne 3 Hawaiian shirt that Max Payne wears at one point in the game. To most people it's just going to be a regular Hawaiian shirt.

 

So if I got a pony shirt it would probably be something really stylized.

[M'aiq the Liar 5,804]

Well after that time I wore a pony fursuit to work...........

 

 

 

Nah, unless you are a brony most of my stuff just looks oddly stylistic with various symbols and colors.

[shy0wl 484]

Not many people, only one (or maybe two) people actually know I'm a brony. I actually feel weird talking about ponies even with people (that I know in real life) who know I'm a brony, even if they happen to be a brony too.  I guess I'm socially awkward for that aspect though XD

It's not easy for people to know I'm a brony.

[Naiya The Brony 483]

not really. I only have few pony merch when I'm in public. One Pinkie pie pin clipped on my bag

But when in conventions and stuff... that's where I am always OPEN like  very open

[rarity1 461]

I wear black clothing and that makes it difficult for anyone to know I'm a brony.  The only way someone could tell I'm a brony is if they see my home desktop wallpaper.

[mars 4,862]

Probably pretty easy. On my schoolbag, I have an Alicorn!Twilight button and on the weekends I take it off my schoolbag and put it on the bag I take when I'm out. I also wear pony shirts, as well. I don't try to hide it, and I don't try to flaunt it. But, well, I like the show- heck yeah I'm going to show my love for it!

[SnipSnap 432]

The only way people can know I'm a brony is if they find my Pinkie plushie or go to my Steam Profile page.

[Sigma 768]

About as easy as it is to steal a bar of gold from Fort Knox.

[Solid 1,327]

Nope, Not until I tell them, or when they see me working out or giving haters their fair share of nightmare. Don't have a ton of haters where I am though, so probably only when I tell them or when I'm working out.

[Stone Cold Applejack 381]

Not at all.

 

Does this look like a sterwotypical pegasister?

No. Not at all.

 

P.S. Applejack is best pony. (That makes great filler but is already gettin on my nerves.)

[Vertigo_95 572]

It's not that easy. I really don't wear my pony shirts as often as I did when I first got them, but I do occasionally wear a Rainbow Dash and Brony wristbands, so it is not very often someone would just randomly look at a persons wrists, which I find strange. Another Brony actually found me in school by my wristbands.

 

I don't wear Fender or Legend of Zelda apparel.

 

 

I love my Legend of Zelda apparel very much. Now you know that.

 

I hope someone understands this reference.

[Gone Airbourne 21,977]

Hardly for me I never wear any merch anymore and I just watch the show nowadays here and there.

[Petal Dancer 55]

No one outside my immediate family knows. But if asked I would be honest about liking MLP.

[Soul Flare 403]

Impossible, unless you look at my phone, pc or desk :v

[Leonard Smix 421]

People will only know if I am a brony by looking through my social media stuff... youtube, twitter, ETC...

 

However something inside of me wants to say, IM A PROUD BRONY EVERYONE!

 

But I don't.

[The Boulder 121]

If you saw me on the street, you'd never know. I have no pony shirts or merch (unfortunately... ) But Every once and a while, if someone asks what I'm doing later or something, I'll say, "Oh you know...homework, ukulele, running cross country, *mumbling* watching ponies..."

 

Oh and I say "Eeyup" and "Nnope" pretty often.   Its like my radar ping to find other Bronies, but if there are any, no one's picked it up yet...

[Jackleberry 1,921]

Pretty easily, in real life.

 

I only ever wear pony shirts and a pony sweater nowadays, so it'd only take one look at me to find out that I'm a brony.

[Odyssey 5,716]

Sort of easy. On occasion, I wear a shirt featuring the Mane 6. I also tend to buy MLP Funko figurines and my phone wallpaper features Rarity. I'll admit at times I try too hard to show off my love for MLP.
