Idk, it's just that they're my two faves in Equestria Girls, and they have some hella-cute moments together. And (dog) Spike likes (human) Rarity, so why not ship him with Sunset? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, in FiM, I get that dragon Spike's relationship with the mane six ponies are kind of similar to what dogs are to humans, which was translated into EQG quite cruelly. But at least dragons are sentient beings, while in EQG, dogs are just dogs and Spike just magically became a smart speaking one of a kind dog. It's kinda... odd... never mind. Everything is possible in a fantasy, they would be a beautiful lovely couple, it's all good, it's way easier this way than trying to explain something that even I can't even fully understand.

Yeah, but would it work the other way around? And I also think Spike is way younger. Edited March 27, 2020 by Sepul-Coloratura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Bolt 35,246 March 27, 2020 Share March 27, 2020 There's no doubt about it, Sunset Shimmer is HOT. Let's just be honest here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is possible in a fantasy, they would be a beautiful lovely couple, it's all good, it's way easier this way than trying to explain something that even I can't even fully understand. I always felt that Spike was nearly an equal to Mane 6 ponies, so I wouldn;t say that he is like what dogs are to human's. But putting him as a dog in EQG was kinda stupid and did make him seem like pet. Since the pairing of Sunset as a pony and Spike as a dragon would definitively work, their human counterparts should also be compatible. 14 minutes ago, Lucky Bolt said: There's no doubt about it, Sunset Shimmer is HOT. Let's just be honest here. Nah. I've always felt that she had way too much hair. Tone that down, and then I might reconsider about whether she is hot or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, she is something when you put her on display like this I still think she isn't made to be a sex symbol. I am questioning what her clothing style really means, like, is she a biker? I would so like seeing her ride a motorcycle to school, with a cool helmet, and special leather jacket. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just bothers me that he essentially brushed aside that issue big time. Spike really deserves to be equals with the girls there. Not being demoted to some pet in EQG like that.

SunsetShimmerisBae 16 May 22, 2020 Share May 22, 2020 Well , im not sure about outside viewers/ little kids that watch the show , but for the bronie community , i think sunset is the most charming / atractive character out of the seven ( Even in there are other popular characters like sci twi , adagio, etc ) The main reasons , at least for me : Sunset's mature depiction in the show , she is shown as a bad ass , and has a way better style than the rest of the 6 (this is because the other mane 6 are kinda based of the equestria mane 6 , while with sunset they have the freedom of doing her as they want ). She's always in different outfits that match his character without falling in stereotypes. Also, her personality , idk what she has but really , i feel like has something that makes you feel atracted to her, could be the bad ass look? Or the fact she is the oldest/ most grown up? She is also a gamer and when i learned that i was like : If she was best waifu , now she is even better waifu!! Funny thing :my discord pic used to be a sunset pic , and when i joined a chat with some friends , they didn't recognize that was something MLP related , they just thought it was some hot "deviantart girl" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since they look human, why would they have any reason to link it to something about ponies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splashee 28,599 June 22, 2020 Share June 22, 2020 Why the need for a sex symbol in a show for teenagers? Really? Sometimes I wonder things... maybe Hasbro is full of old men fools Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of Canterlot 9,608 July 22, 2020 Share July 22, 2020 Yeah I suppose I probably would. As much as I love Twilight and Sci-Twi, when you think of EQG the first character you would more than likely think of would be Sunset Shimmer. This fact is what I think makes her the series so-called "sex symbol" just because she's is essentially the face of that particular branch of the MLP franchise. I do also agree with some of the others here in the fact that Sunset acting a little more grown up/mature than the rest of her friends can also attract more attention/people to her. 1 RA RA RASPUTIN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlet SoftPaws 3,588 February 26, 2021 Share February 26, 2021 A lot of fanart of the girls are good, but I have to agree with @The Wife of Hawks on this. To me, the characters in EQG just seemed like a reboot of the characters in Doug. 1 Signature by Myself! "Ara Ara" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abronymouse 6,144 February 27, 2021 Share February 27, 2021 OP answers itself. Characters are depicted. Some fans are het boys over the age of 11. Therefore some het boys want depictions of girl character as sex symbol. Therefore able fans provide for the het bois and receive attention. Saucy Sunsets are produced. Rinse and repeat. In terms of fan depiction Sunset is no more sex symbol than any fave female character of the 11+ het bois though since above process works for basically any female character of note. Any characters lacking things het bois want, like lil doodangs, are not depicted. On the other hand so many people are dtf wtfl...

Never Returning 28,615 March 6, 2021 Share March 6, 2021 I wouldn't necessarily call her a sex symbol, but she is quite attractive. Then again, so are most of the girls to me. 2 Signature by @Mellow Mane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonko_the_Sane 36 March 11, 2021 Share March 11, 2021 I'd definitely say that Sunset has emerged as a sex symbol, but I don't think she was intentionally designed as one. As one previous commentator noted, a good sized number of her fanbase are adolescent males and humans being humans, they're gonna sexualize her. I definitely find her attractive, but as a middle-aged male, I'm not so prone to the raging hormones of youth. In summary: Fans made her a sex symbol, not the creators. IMHO, of course.
