Techno Universal 2,575 August 27, 2017 Share August 27, 2017 Yeah I'm 16 myself plus I've been a brony since June-July 2014. I've also kept it secret for all of this time to plus knowing my parents it just wouldn't be a good idea to tell them that I'm a brony. 1 Message from UNIT: UBC-001 (Original image used made by @chaosprincess signature composed by @Kyoshi) My theory of MLP OC: Techno Universal ask me!: Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libra 11,691 August 27, 2017 Share August 27, 2017 My parents know, and they're okay with it, since they attributed it to me having more positive feelings (and believe it or not, it does give me positive feelings) and a Walmart checkout employee. (I bought merchandice, with silence a few people with the same line, that was the longest 2 minutes of my life.) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FluffyGoat13 375 August 28, 2017 Share August 28, 2017 When I became a brony 4 years ago now I was 14. Luckily I had some friends that were also bronies, and my friends that weren't were cool with it, so I didn't have too much of a bad time. Considering a lot of the kids at my school left me alone unless they needed something from me (they'd usually ask me to hack their MyMaths homework and give me a quid or two, or something like that), I didn't really have a hard time. But I do see your point. You aren't an independent adult, so it is nigh on impossible to go to a con without everyone knowing. 1 "I love deadlines.

Jedishy 3,549 August 28, 2017 Share August 28, 2017 @Ponyboy sodapop Ok first of all if your username is an Outsiders reference kudos Secondly, I am going to give you some advice. At 16 you are about to become a man by many societies standards. However, manhood is not something you just get. You earn in. How do you earn it? Well that is in the eyes of the men around you. But one thing that is an almost demanded part of manhood is the ability to take being tested and push back. Do not let others around you make you ashamed of what you enjoy. Now that does not mean that you are required to share it with them. Just don't be so scared of it being found out. Enjoy what you enjoy and if people give you crap ask yourself why do you care about their opinion? Why does there word matter to you? In short buck up kid you can do this and remember the people that make fun of you likely have way more embarrassing stuff that they hide then liking a TV show. May the Friendship be with you.

You are right, my best friends already know and they take it ok, but I won't tell my family unless is necessary yeah my name it's an outsiders reference, is one of my favorite books and I though it would be funny naming my oc ponyboy without them noticing it's a outsiders reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PretendPrawn262 0 July 31, 2018 Share July 31, 2018 I feel I'm in a pretty bad predicament because I'm a brony along with having social anxiety Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Partialgeek514 5,011 January 19, 2019 Share January 19, 2019 I was a teenage brony for a while, but I'm 20 now, so I guess those days are gone. I guess it's true I have a bit more money for pony stuff now, but most of my money has to go towards school and life expenses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lua 106 January 21, 2019 Share January 21, 2019 (edited) Well, I'm 14 and well its cool and all, but yeah getting stuff or going out to cons or even finding others who like the show is hard (although my friend is getting into it thanks to me) EDIT: friend is no longer gonna watch, it just isn't his thing. but oh well i'm not gonna force him Edited January 22, 2019 by Jakeduhcreeper no alarms, and no surprises.

Sondash Studios 4,853 January 21, 2019 Share January 21, 2019 It okay, just go with the flow, keep the secret to yourself, and live what years you have left of your teenage hood. If you want to tell one of your parents that your a brony, moms tend to be a little more calm on the subject. Tell me this isn't the cutest thing you've seen all day?

Cash In 22,525 January 23, 2019 Share January 23, 2019 (edited) Yeah, I'd be considered a teenage brony. I was 14 when I started watching the show. Edited October 16, 2020 by Cash In At first I rejected the zero, but that was because I simply didn't understand it. Now I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O-78 28,607 January 24, 2019 Share January 24, 2019 I was 14 when I started watching MLP, and I'm 16 now, so yes, I am a teen brony. I'm not super open about it, but if anyone asks I won't deny it. Signature by @Mellow Mane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narcissus 355 February 2, 2019 Share February 2, 2019 I'm a teenage Pegasister and I never care what anyone thinks of me for it. I like what I like and to hell with anyone who can't get behind that. If someone gets in my face about anything, I 'educate' them on why they shouldn't pick apart someone else's interests when they don't have a clue themselves. I love putting idiots like that under their own spotlight and making them analyze their own stupidity, it's funny as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirox the pony 1,336 February 2, 2019 Share February 2, 2019 I find it quite surprising that these conversations come up at all in this day and age. I got into MLP at age 13 in 2012. Back during the prime of the brony scene. From what I saw online this was far from uncommon and there were a lot of MLP fans around that age. I'd say I handled the situation pretty well. I got teased but never a punch thrown at me. It's amazing what simple confidence can do. No matter how hard I try these ponies will simply never leave me.
