Try and change my friend?

[jacibobsthebrony 115]

My friend recentley reviled to me that he is a brony and has been a brony secretley for a long time and he is also a clopper.I know that alot of people dislike and disagree with cloppers.I didnt really care about cloppers at first but i dont know if I should try and stop him clopping. I dont really care about him clopping but I wanna know what you think.

You don't need to change him. He's your friend right? Its not affecting you. If he's trying to get you to look at those pictures and get you to be a clopper too, then we have a problem. You also most likely never going to get him to stop anyway, just accept for the way he is.

Personally, if he was my friend, I would either tell him stop or I wouldn't talk about my little pony with him - ever. Maybe he wouldn't but it would at least get him to stop talking about it around me... in theory

Implying that cloppers actually feel the need to talk about clopping experiences. Really, thats not a very good reason to stop discussing MLP with him. Why the heck would they ever talk about the time they clopped to X pony or saw of R34 of X?

[jacibobsthebrony 115]

Well he does show me the pictures on his phone alot but he not trying to force me to become a clopper.Id stay away from him If he tried to do that.

[Twi Rubix 726]

Well, i think he can decided if he wants to be a clopper or not if he keeps it to himself. I mean, just as long as it doesnt get out of hand...

Did you tell him your not interested in that kind of stuff, and tell him to keep it to himself? Edited August 2, 2012 by Twi Rubix

Just the fact that jacibob knows tells me his friend at least talked about it once in the first place... I don't know why anyone would talk about it. And I would say it's a good reason to stop talking about mlp with him cause obviously we would have two very different ways of looking at the show

 

but thats just me. Obviously Jacibob doesn't care too much since he lets his friend show him pictures on his phone or whatever

I'm sorry but, Bullshit. Thats the worse generalization of cloppers you could ever say. Cloppers view it the exact same way as everyone else. Just not all the time.

Well first and foremost, don't try and change him. Unless he's doing activity that's actually dangerous to himself or others, I don't really see a problem. It might be a thing you or others disagree with, but that doesn't make it wrong in the slightest.

 

As for him showing you pictures on his phone, just simply tell him that you aren't into that stuffs and if he could stop that. That's crossing the line of putting you in the situation, which if you don't like it, you shouldn't have to be apart of. Now if he keeps on pushing it, maybe have a talk with him about your feelings, but hopefully that just does the trick.

 

I wouldn't treat him any different though, we all have our things, and he's still the great friend you have regardless of this, =D

[False Perception 482]

Honestly, does it matter what other people do behind closed stables. It only becomes your problem when he tries to force R34 onto you. That's when you have to set boundries. Really, I don't care if he dresses up as Big Mac and roleplays with someone playing Luna (other than the fact that I wish I could get my GF to RP as Luna), and neither should you.

 

And personally, I'm into bondage both ways. Totally not into RP however.

[Shankveld 4,952]

LIVE AND LET LIVE.

I didn't realize you were his wife or parent?

He's your friend, you have no right to change him or tell him what to do.

Obviously just contradicted yourself, you can't even make that claim straight up without the disclaimer "Just not all the time" lol.

 

No they don't see it the same way I do or else they wouldn't be doing what they're doing. End of

[KakeiTheWolf 652]

Let me put it this way: If he clops ON you, then you have a problem. If he clops NEAR you, then you have a problem. If he clops in the same house/room as the one you live your life in, then you have a problem. But if he's doing it in some remote room with blackout curtains and the lights off, YOU do not have a problem.

But your implying we want to do them all the time. When I watched the show, I don't find them sexy. I don't want to do them. I enjoying the innocence of the ponies. Having a good time. The only time I think any other feelings towards them is when I'm clopping.

I feel like I've had a similar conversation with you before...

 

A thief isn't just a thief when he's stealing something

An arsonist isn't just an arsonist when he's burning something to the ground

 

Actions carry a stigma with them

 

Do what you want, be who you wanna be, I'm just telling this guy what I would do if my friend was talking about this stuff around me because as much as I respect your right to do it I'm not going to sit there and tolerate it and try to make you feel like your actions are justified

Thats not what we are talking about. We were talking about how people don't always constantly think that way about the ponies and don't view it differently.

[Haven Celestii 9,385]

Why would you want to change him? As long as he isn't throwing it in people or your face then he is fine.

 

And if you don't like it or wanna see it, then just be all like: "Hey man bro dude bruh. Ion't like dat shiz. Ion't wanna see dat shiz. Ya understand me, bruh? Ya keep it to yourself, man. We good? We good? Aight."

[MetalDash 1]

Well, he's not. If he was, I would say, run for your life! Also if he's your friend, why would you try to change him?

[jacibobsthebrony 115]

I think i shouldn't of posted this. To be honest all I wanted to know was your opinion and i didnt even think about changing him at all. I knew that alot of people hate cloppers and are negative twords them. So yeah Im ok with him being a clopper and Im sorry If I offended any cloppers bronies pegasisters and everyone else.
