Why aren't the ponies naked after going through the magic mirror?

[HailTrixie 239]

I was going to say that since there is another Twilight in the human world, then maybe the mirror doesn't just transform you into a human, it transforms you into a direct copy of your already existing human counterpart, so it basically copies the clothing as well. But then I remembered that the human Twilight doesn't wear those clothes, she wears a labcoat. So maybe it generates clothes based on the personality of your already existing human counterpart and the location you're in? Which is why it made an actual school uniform and not just casual clothes because it's Twilight Sparkle.

 

This is probably looking at things a bit too in depth, though. Casually walking around naked would totally have been the best thing to happen though

Insert Terminator joke here...

I've seen several fanfics which went into the fact that, unlike Americans, ponies don't have a nudity taboo.  Not all of them were clop -just most of them

Starswirled the Bearded made it. Judging by his attire you can tell he was quite the fashionist and like Rarity find it a crime to be naked so he installed an apparatus that will cloth all those that that use it.

It's because of the Magic of Friendship! (and the FCC)

[NotoriousSMALL 1,984]

Because it's a children's movie about ponies becoming real girls and going to high school... they aren't too worried about realism.

There's going to be new Terminator jokes in a few days. Just saying. 

 

The reason they have clothes is the same reason the Hulk has those shorts/boxers/whatever after he transforms. It's necessary to satisfy the cultural mandate of the society the show is made for. 

[Prince Firemane 309]

Because Twilight had saddlebags on when she entered the portal. The portal acted as a kind of computer that analyzed Twilight's departure point and transmitted the matter stream through to the receiving portal. That one in turn analyzed the human world and used a biomimetic magic based upon the data collected and compared from both worlds. Thus the matter stream was converted based on environmental factors; ponies are the dominant lifeforms in Equestria and humans are the dominant lifeforms at Canterlot High. The biomimetic magic then altered the matter stream to accurately reflect that by turning pony Twilight into a human. The saddlebags were then used as a raw material by which clothing was created, as the receiving portal surely would've analyzed. So it's not a matter of modesty, it's a matter of mimicry.

 

But all that aside... yeah, Hasbro reasons.

[Discordian 6,013]

Because they wanted to deprive us of her jibblybits.

[Red Cedar 1,407]

Very young children watch this show. They were never going to go there.

unrelated question, spike is a dragon and he became a dog, right? and vice versa, right?

 

winnona's already a dog. so...if winnona were to go though the mirror...

Well, then you'd have this.

On the other hoof this is how she should come back as.

 

[Megas 27,064]

Because of the TV-G rating

[Trixio 443]

simply because it is a cartoon.And they probably did not consider appropriate to include a nude scene in the cartoon

[Shimmer Quill 35]

I agree with what we all seem to be saying: it's a children's movie.

 

But I also believe that the clothes (like other things) would have some bond with her because the parallels between the two worlds are close. Not picking it up? Think of it like this:

The closer things are, the more they have in common.

EG World is really similar to Equestria because their worlds are close in the space-time continuum. This results in easy travel between worlds and slight variations in the world's "programming".

 

I hope that made sense.

Hold on... 1 mirror... 1 statue... 1 Twilight... That's 3... A triangle has three sides... ILLUMINATI CONFIRMED!!!

[Dakcka 182]

She had clothes?! You guys must have watched the wrong movie, cause they were all naked!
