Would you REALLY date a pony?

I can't really give you a straight answer to this. The fact that ​they're exactly like the ones in the show isn't enough data. If one were to ask me out I would have to consider/know these things first:

  1. I would have to consider the fact that explaining that my partner is a pastel coloured sentient micro-horse to friends and family could possibly be the strangest and most awkward thing I would ever have to do.
  2. Whether or not I have the option to flee to Equestria.
  3. I would need to know whether performing cer​tain activities would be harmful, physically or psychologically, to either of us.

TL;DR: I don't know.​

Nope. Even if I wasn't currently in a great relationship I still don't think I'd date a magical talking equine. That would be awkward quite considering I quite enjoy horse meat.

Dating Rainbow Dash: 

 

Pros: 

 

She wouldn't cheat on me 

 

She's awesome 

 

She would keep me safe 

 

I would feel safer 

 

I know she wouldn't abandon me 

 

I would have more motivation to work out. 

 

I would be dating Rainbow Dash. 

 

 

Cons: 

 

She may eat all the food 

 

She would destroy the house

 

She wouldn't want to date me because I can't fly 

 

 

Rarity: 

 

Pros: 

 

I won't have to worry about money. 

 

I would be able to cuddle with her a lot 

 

I would be dating a beautiful pony 

 

I wouldn't have to live in a messy house 

 

I wouldn't have to tell her to clean up her mess. 

 

I would be dating Rarity 

 

 

Cons: 

 

I would have to deal with her being melodramatic 

 

I would have to deal with an evil cat 

 

She would be too busy to spend time with me. 

 

 

 

If I was single, and I was given the option, I would date a pony. I would rather date Rainbow Dash and maybe have some way of living on clouds and being able to fly. If a tortoise can do it, so can I. I know she wouldn't cheat on me or leave me out of the blue. I have a fear of abandonment, so I would rather be with someone I know wouldn't just leave me. (I am still scared that my girlfriend will leave me even though she had a hard time finding someone to date until me.) Rarity would be more likely to leave me for someone better and more cultured.

Pony.jpgIf it were real life they would look like that, and with that I'd have to say nope. 

 

If they looked and act like they did in the show, sure I'd go out with Big Mac :3. But only if they didn't look like our real world counterparts, cause I can't find them attractive what so ever for obvious reasons.

I could tell you why there's nothing wrong with it. I could tell you why they're most certainly nothing like real horses, physicality aside, and why a relationship with an Equestrian would be nothing like bestiality (if you need a tip, try googling it. Or working with the word beast and starting from there). But, all i'm going to say is that i'd have no issues dating a pony. And i'd have no issues showing them off to my friends and family, or the world at large. Because, you see, provided they keep their hands and mouths off the both of us, I couldn't possibly care less what they do. And if my friends/ family are all shallow and self-centered enough that they would hate me, or attempt to ostracize me, just for doing the thing that makes me happy (and isn't causing harm to anyone)... Well, they probably weren't the best people to be around to begin with.

I don't think I've ever wanted to applaud a post on MLPF before.  Or, if so, it's been a long damned time.  *Applauds.*  Well said.

Okay, here are some scenarios.

 

1. The easy one. Humans and ponies have lived side by side for a long time and it's not really a big deal to anyone.

 

2. It's like an interracial relationship in the 20s. Lots of people disapprove. There's a potential for violence. Your family might approve but probably not.

 

3. She's the first pony on earth. She's recognized as a free being but you would be "that guy who's doing it with an alien." That would get you some respect, some fear, a lot of "that's weird" and "that's gross."

 

4. Same scenario except you're the first human in Equestria.

 

5. She's the first pony on earth and she has to hide from the government. She has to hide out in your basement or whatever until you can find a way for her to get home(assuming it's even possible) then you could probably go with her.

 

I say yes to all of them because fuck prejudice.

Pretty close to the plot of the first book I am writing. :-)

If they are the same from the show, then I definitely would! It would be strange of course, but they have a complex personality, so the only main difference is how they look, which definitely wouldn't bother me assuming they are like how they are on the show (Rainbow Dash is so cute :wub: ). 

Obviously I would date Rainbow Dash, although she might not be interested in me.

Heck yes! If they were real, I could trust a pony more then a human. Sure, there a bad ponies too, but compared to humans I probably rather end up with a pony really loving me then a human just using me. Tough if I had a human to love already, then probably no ... or? Dunno, let them become real and I respond again XD

Legends never die. Ponies neither.

Romantic relationships would probably just get in the way for me. I think that's the case with Humans anyway. I would find them fascinating though, and I won't sit here and say I wouldn't fall in love with Twilight because I don't know that. Now maybe after some time my psyche would change and I would begin to experience other feelings and pull a Dipper Pines but for now I can't say that I would.

Date a pony? Goodness, no! I prefer humans only.

 

What if you were a pony?

 

 

So yeah... no.

 

If I were a pony in Equestria, well yeah I would because duh,,, I would be a pony to. What else am i going to do?

 

But here, I would have to say nope most likely. I do see them as intelligent, complex thinking beings and would actually support those who could look past the physical differences and just see them for who they are, but personally I just don't think it would work for me. I would gladly love them as a friend though.

 

To be honest though I don't think anyone can fairly answer this though to some degree. I mean everyone says what they are and are not attracted to, but put into the right situation and discovering someone connects to you in a way you never though anyone else could, could make love bloom in a place you would swear was impossible.

My initial reaction was 'no', but when I really thought about it for a moment... Why not?

 

They are obviously people rather than just animals, since they talk, have developed a complicated society and whatnot. And there are some human beings I find far less attractive than an average pony, so... If they were real, if they were walking about among us humans every day, and one asked me out.... Maybe. Who knows?

@GrimGrimoire While the original poster's question was about inter-species dating, if I were already a pony in Equestria, then I suppose that I would only be attracted to other ponies, as you mentioned. But if I became a pony right now, unless my brain's preferences were altered along with my body, then I might still only have a thing for humans.

Sure, why not. I mean, if I could get to even GO to Equestria, that'd be amazing. I wonder how that would work, being a human in Equestria...

You have laid your eyes upon my post. Be afraid. Please. With a cherry on top? I'm dying here...

 

Oh and here's my OC, I guess: Lance

If I can't find a real girl this seems like a good option to fell back on XD ... T-T

In all honesty I really wouldent mind dating an equestrian :wub: they are quite an improvement on the horses we have irl... Those things scare me ;-; at least you can cuddle a pony :blush:
