If you found out one of your parents is a brony

[Stone Cold Applejack 381]

I would laugh and said "Ha hypocrite."

I'd be  so proud. Brohoof them, for sure.

I don't have parents...but if my husband's parents became bronies....lets see...

His mom...that would actually be understandable, she is not near as traditionalist as his dad...

but if his dad became a brony....omg...that would be adorable hilarious.  He is the type who will watch Hee Haw and the Marty Stuart Show (these shows are older than a majority of users are), and other than the occasional Family Guy, he's fairly a traditionalist in terms of entertainment (he is super fan of tractor cabs, he will talk all day about those if he could)....so to see him a brony, that would make mine (and my husband's) day....

LMAO! - In my situation I just find thinking about this hilarious!

I would be like WTF?   Did the Earth's magnetic poles swap? Did hell freeze over? Am I in the Twilight Zone?

 

BUT...I see pretty much a o.o% chance of this ever happening.

 

My dad is pretty much a "stay within the lines" kind of guy- which is fine if that's what he wants. That said, MLP isn't something he would take past face value.

 

My mom thinks cartoons in general are stupid- so yeah.

 

My parents don't know about the show or that I like it. My mom would probably just think it's weird that I like it, but my dad would probably be mad and give me crap about it.

Mother already is; it's quite enjoyable. She's quite pissed over waiting this long for the new season!

[Pomfritter 165]

My mother is very obsessed with cartoons from her childhood, so I suppose if she was ever interested in the earlier renditions of MLP then she may become interested in the current generation of My Little Pony. I still wouldn't really want her to know, it'd just be odd in my mind.

My parents think I'm weird for watching the show but they are supportive of whatever I do. They're great parents.

 

However, my mum and aunt have both expressed that Lyra is clearly best pony (?!)

[WindyParadise 59]

For my mother? It would be unexpected but not to surprising, sadly it hasn't happened yet. lol

 

As for my dad? Well... He suggested that I watch carebears if I liked MLP since the two are "basically the same show". Though I think that's more out of ignorance I guess but I can't really see him getting into the show like a Brony would.

Carebears and MLP.. Basically the same show? No, just no. He clearly doesn't know why bronies like the show. Edited December 21, 2014 by PonyLaces

If I found out one of my parents became a fan, I would brohoof them and exclaim, ”welcome to the herd!”

[ExplosionMare 18,060]

I’d be more confused than anything. My mom likes the show but I couldn’t imagine her delving into fan content.

[Tom Gallagher 33,581]

I’d love that. What are the chances?

[Cash In 22,180]

I'd laugh if that happened. It won't, but the idea of it is pretty funny.

[Splashee 28,560]

It would be creepy. Parents are not supposed to like cartoon shows.
