Secretive bronies.

Hi there.

 

I made this post to hear about how the stories of those of you guys that, like myself, decided to keep his status as members of this fandom as a secret.

 

How are you dealing with it?

 

Have you been caught?

I'm doing just fine with it myself, but I've almost been caught. When my friends looked through my pictures in my iPhone and saw a bunch of ponies, they all were suprised, but I just said my 6 year old cousin put it on there.

 

What's suprising is that they bought it (at least I think they did).

Unfortunately I have to hide it from my friends but I'm glad my best friend who is also my cousin is also a pegasister so I don't have to hide it from her but no one at school knows. Someone saw pics on my IPhone of Twi but I just said that it was my sister.

I'm kind of secretive about it.  Only my online friends who happen to like the show know about it, but I'm surprised that my family hasn't caught up.  I mean, my nieces love the show, and whenever the subject comes up, I have clearly shown to know stuffs about the show that I shouldn't if I wasn't a fan.  When the topic of bronies comes up, I also have shown that I know quite a lot about the subject, yet it's still clear that my family doesn't know.

 

On the other hand, I don't know if I am being secretive because I have never been asked if I watch the show or not, so I find no reason to tell anyone.  I don't just randomly walk up to people and tell them I like any of the TV shows I like, so why should it be different with MLP?

 

I guess it does help that I don't have any merchandise.

It is still a secret that I am part of the fandom as far as I know.

 

I almost got caught some times, the most recent time that I almost got caught was when I was in college while my dad was ordering some of my papers in my bedroom at home, and he most likely found my drawings of ponies, but as far as I know he probably just ignored them because he did not really got exposed to MLP in his life.

 

I'm still not telling that I am a fan of MLP to my dad. Fugget about it! Even if he's not exposed to that.
