BornAgainBrony 2,398 August 17, 2018 Share August 17, 2018 I've been wondering about this one for a while. I know this is a thing in the world of Furries. Some treat it as just an alternate lifestyle to their normal one, little different from Cosplay or logging into an MMO to be a different person. Others see their Fursonas (main O.C.) as being who they truly are on the inside, and I think, "Does this also apply to MLP fans?" Is this concept a thing with any Bronies? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nye 1,652 August 17, 2018 Share August 17, 2018 (edited) I'm more into saying I want to be a pony; simply because of how much more cheerful it'd be than real life. Though I know I can't be.

Mellow Mane 5,931 August 17, 2018 Share August 17, 2018 I don't really identify as a pony but I would definitely want to be a pony. I think I'd feel more comfortable as a pony than as a human. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castle Bleck 19,448 August 17, 2018 Share August 17, 2018 Human. Although I wouldn't mind being a Unicorn or Alicorn for a day or so. By @Emerald Heart.↑ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally don't understand the whole 'more pony than human thing', you are what you are born to be. It kind of runs in line with the recent backlash against gender identity, which is exactly that: feeling like what you were born as isn't really who you are.

CandyCorn 429 August 17, 2018 Share August 17, 2018 Not really. I actually identify more with cats than any other animal. Happy Halloween | Banner by @Kyoshi <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MangoFoalix 25,058 August 17, 2018 Share August 17, 2018 What a bizarre topic. Of course I'm not delusional and identify as a pony. I am human and I accept that I am. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash In 23,107 August 19, 2018 Share August 19, 2018 I would identify myself as human, due to the fact that I've been one for my whole life. Saying otherwise will make the vast majority of things that I've endured in my life, a complete waste. 1 At first I rejected the zero, but that was because I simply didn't understand it. Now I do.

Gender makes sense, unless it’s about those imaginary non-binary genders . Identifying as an MLP pony doesn’t, as these animals don’t exist in real life however .

Ittoni 538 September 23, 2020 Share September 23, 2020 I don't think so... but at the same time I'm so ashamed of humanity and so disappointed, so out of their circle of understanding that I prefer to think i'm anything else than human despite knowing that i'm one of them just the same. I would say I feel more identified with other things that share in some way a quality that I do know have, that are more humble in what they are not. I've been trying to define what is to be "human" (not biologically of course, we are talking about identity here, the concept) and is a lot more tricky than it appears, well.. maybe for some the answer is easy but I do find a lot of conflicting definitions and usually my own does not match the majority's opinion on it. And of course the fact that I'm more accepting on identifying as something else ties up with my "chronic loneliness" and depression. I don't know people (humans) as much as I should and i can't identify or connect with them because of the mentioned before (i have a theory that i might be neurodivergent in some way), so it's only understandable that I would seek that sense of belonging somewhere else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppleButt 8,684 September 23, 2020 Share September 23, 2020 I don’t identify as a pony. I do wish I were one though and sent to Equestria. I’m tired of living here. I have no sense of meaning here and I think being a pony in Equestria would give me a sense of meaning. If only 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splashee 28,599 September 23, 2020 Share September 23, 2020 In 2012, I wanted to be more pony than human, because it was something they all wanted at the time. Nowadays, I prefer human over pony, because of all the school of Friendship and pillars and whatnot. It doesn't feel like the Lauren Faust world that everypony was do immerged into Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
