Stereotypes about Bronies that you disprove?

[Toothpaste 114]

The stereotype that we all love and tolerate.

Just look at all the comments breaking down the situation and logically trying to determine the future outcome and if it will work.

 

Oh wait, nevermind. It is a thread made of a noticeable amount of concentrated hate. We have no right to hold the title of 'love and tolerance'.

 

We're humans that like a TV show that nobody thought we would. Not another species of advanced mental condition.

Don't get me wrong, I love this fandom to pieces. I have gained many friends, and have gathered more inspiration than I could have otherwise imagined. But we aren't all a phenomenon community of only people who mean well for everyone. We, like all people, are subject to getting caught up in a moment, or an emotion that will make us say something brash, harsh, or downright hateful.

 

We can be pretty darn awesome, but we ain't perfect.

I have 0 mental problems, i have a rather respectable job, i lifeguard, i'm not a giant pile of fat, I dunno.

I can't say that I really disprove any Brony stereotypes. I am an asocial, nerdy person who generally spends all day lurking in his room, and I have no problem with that.

I might be some of those stereotypes due to my own disabilities

I'm quite active as a fencer, and I work out to complement that. I also don't have a neckbeard or fedora. Sadly, though, over the past months I didn't work out enough or eat very healthy due to moving and the entirety of December, so I am actually a bit overweight at the moment.

 

Since autism seems to be considered stereotypical for bronies, I also disprove that since I'm not autistic.

[Chuckles4lyfe 441]

1. I'm Asian and clean-shaven (stereotype that most Bronies are Caucasian with neckbeards)
2. I'm very active (swimming, running, basketball, weight-lifting) and am in the normal weight range (stereotype that Bronies are overweight).
3. I don't have any mental problems and am a very outgoing person (stereotype that Bronies are all Autistic and antisocial).

If you were to meet me in real life, I don't think that the term "Brony" would be the 1st thing that would come to your mind. Even my boss was shocked when she found out that I liked the same show as her daughter  .

(Redoing mine, as I don't like my original post/decriptions...)

 

1. I am Female (As some people assume that females are not active in the fandom)

2. I do not fall under the "Pedophile, overweight, fedora-wearing" brony stereotypes.

3. I do NOT draw.look at clop/pony R34.I personally get quite a scare when seeing it.

 

Although I fall under some stereotypes (I'm antisocial, not very active, and am not straight), I disprove a few.
