It's a show for little girls.

Not really. Faust did in FiM what she did in Fosters' Home for Imaginary Friends, as well as a Powerpuff Girls, aiming to make things very gender neutral. And it worked. Their target audience is meant for younger kids and preteens, but it is not 'for little girls' :3 Just sayin~

I don't mind shippings. There are times where people just do it for the sake of it, and I don't really mind/care, and then there are times where I can see it happening and I kinda wanna see it, but for the most part I'm indifferent about it.

Yes, I know. But even still, there are certain places that animators shouldn't go when making any cartoon for kids. Besides, it would just be weird and more than a little creepy.

Not a huge fan of shipping; I prefer to think of the show as canonically as possible as much as possible (i.e. no relationships unless explicitly defined), but then again it does make for some good fan art sometimes.

I think it really depends on the writer. I'm cool with lesbian ships but if the characters seem very out of character with words and actions it ruins an otherwise nice experience. I've read a few "clopfics" that focused lightly on the sex and more on how they would deal with the relationship. Getting onto a personal level like that always feels like you've been let in on the secret and you can't help but root for the characters as they struggle with the situation. Each argument can be heartbreaking but that can make the reunion that much sweeter.

 

I think I overall enjoy the love story. The sex of the characters involved really has little impact for me. Anyone can be happy with anyone else. Love is the important part.

Funnily enough, I think RD x Pinkie Pie is the way it should be. However, I don't really like Applejack x Rarity; Rarity goes with Spike thank you very much.

 

But yeah, overall, I enjoy the lesbian shipping more.

This poll was hard for me. I support lesbian shipping, but there's so CELESTIA DAMNED MUCH OF IT!

 

So now I very much prefer hetero.

The only Shipping I support in the entire show is Spike X Rarity, because it's cannon. The Shippings between the Mane 6 I personally don't really enjoy but to each their own, after all Love and Tolerate.

 

Also happy 1st non-introduction post to me!

Awesome, welcome to the herd :lol:

 

On topic, I do support the lesbian ships. Of course it always depends on how well it's written; I think quality of writing can make or break any ship. For example, I was very 'meh' about OctaScratch until I read University Days, which I definitely recommend if you don't mind shipping.

I honestly don't care for shipping. I don't see much point to it. I can sort of see why some people may be interested in it, but I've never really been able to get into reading shipping of any sort.

I really don't have the time to read fanfics, but the few ones I do read I enjoy; they have to be well written though, they can't just turn into a horribly unrealistic sex orgy within three paragraphs.

To be fair, the only Heterosexual shippings involve Pipsqueak, Big Mac, and Braeburn. Not much variety there...

 

Or depth. Plus, girl on girl is hawt.

 

I've once read a Spike x Rainbow Dash shipping, lol.

 

I personally don't mind any sort of shipping, so long as it's a good read. Of course, the mares having the deeper personalities, they always manage to be the best reads.

I really don't mind any kind of shipping. As long as the individual's interested in it, it doesn't bother me.

I'm against all shipping. But that's probably just because I'm against any relationships/sex in... No I'm not bitter I just don't think its necessary... its messy and overrated.

 

I think the Scootaloo Diaries is a good example of how quickly relationships can go south if left unchecked...can you read it? You can skip the sex.
