How open are you about ponies?

[EddG 554]

Very open...

Everyone in my school, neighbourhood, friend circle knows ^^

[Ice Fox 1,145]

I won't say anything about it to my family until I'm able to move out.

Reason being they'd be really mad I've been watching videos without them knowing...

So yeah, I'm a huge closet brony. Kinda wish I could buy some swag though, I have a bit of a collector's mentality.

[Ironbyte 257]

Hm i'm pretty open, I'm occasionally wearing a hoodie or T-shirt or something pony related.

I like what i like.

not very open only a few of my friends know

so yea

[cdx561 238]

I sometimes wear Rainbow Dash shirts in public but if anyone asks il tell them all about MLP and how awesome it is =D

 

BEST SHOW EVER!!!!!!

[Ironbyte 257]

I probably dont get judged as much for it since im a girl, so im very open about it. If something reminds me of ponies or i just happen to feel like bursting out in a CMC song, then i will. But, you know, in the right situations. 

I feel very sad for the people on here who are so scared of being judged they cannot even openly express their interests. 

 

It hurts to know that two MLP fans could walk past eachother, both depressed, not knowing the other was just like them. But since they're afraid of being made fun of, they cant even wear their favorites t-shirts or backpacks. Had people been more open-minded, those two could have wore what they want, met over seeing eachothers merch and became best friends, pulling eachother out of depression.

 

Yet they just walk past eachother, never knowing that could have happened.

 

This is pretty much why i'm usally wearing something Pony related. Incase i ever get the chance to make a new friend. 

[Alex Z 848]

I'm very open about it. Most of my friends and family know I'm a brony.

[HorsesandMOARGaloar 300]

I keep it mostly to the Internet, a few friends, and myself, although I throw a few pony jokes sometimes to annoy people.

And the only MLP things I would most likely buy may be just a few bookmarks for a family relative to own.

[Dingo_Dash 1,401]

I was seriously thinking about wearing something to identify my "faction" and see if anyone in my city recognizes it and ask me to brohoof...

[Pokemons are gaaay 113]

Im starting to become more open with my family, but not school.

I draw ponies at home, I even wear my homemade wonderbolts necklace, but my dad doesn't know. He will when he sees me purchase mlp merchandise!

[MysticShine 529]

Not open at all. No one knows, and no one would expect it. I would only tell someone I really trust and knew wouldn't make fun of me.

YOU WATCH A SHOW ABOUT PONIES? NERD! HAHA HAHA! Jk, I told my mom, and she doesn't care.

[MysticShine 529]

Oh it'd probably go down worse than that. My friends at school would call me a faggot and never let me hear the end of it. My mom would get all concerned and think there is something wrong with me.

Well, my friends at school would do the exact same thing. But my mom knows the shows I like are good due to the fact I'm a cartoon connoisseur, so she didn't care.

[An Unknown Pony. 370]

Not Really Open,Only All of my friends know i'm a brony.

[The Professor...8D 823]

HMmmmmmmm...............I'm not secretive about it, but I don't really talk about things like this with my family, friends Yes but even then, I don't talk to much about anything I like with people unless it's brought up. So no, but then again I don't go screaming out to the world "I LIKE MLP FIM, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!" It's just something I enjoy along reading, other shows, games, my business.

*Shrugs* I don't know.

[Poetic Stone 1,040]

I have no problem telling people, hell I'm proud to be a brony, I wear my shirts proudly when I go out, and yes people stare, but the hell with them I care not what people think. 

 

        

[MLPFiMBrony2232 19]

I personally don't wear a lot of the merchandise. But, if anyone asks me a question regarding what shows I like to watch I say to them "I say this without the slightest bit of shame or guilt. I like watching My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic." It's true I am not a ashamed to admit that I watch the show.

[The Fiery Brony 32]

I'm very open, that's maybe because I'm a very open person, but everyone knows I love My Little Pony and their all pretty cool with it.

[Suyu 108]

I usually wear an MLP shirt once twice a week or two. No one really minds that. As of my friends and family, most know that I'm a brony.

[chirox the pony 1,336]

I'm not that open about, I try to hide the nerd/fanboy side of myself as much as possible.

[Mane Quest 104]

I am not very open about it, I am really worried about what my friends and family will think.

I did tell 3 of my friends though since I know I can trust them enough with it, the one I was least able to trust I made them watch a documentary on Bronies first so that they would understand the fandom more, they went from the "Bronies are faggots" end of the spectrum to being more like "It is weird but I understand why people would like it", and at that stage I thought it was likely fine to bring it up, that friend was cool with it and did not laugh at me for it.

[A goat 323]

I have nothing against baby horses, I just think that goats are intellectually supperior.

 

Jokes aside, I have no problem telling people that I'm a brony. But I don't cram it down people's throats, at least not anymore.

[Duster Dawnhorse 248]

I don't hide it or shove it in people's faces. I have pony stuff I tote around in public without comment, most commonly my RD purse and mane six belt I take to work. I used to wear pony enamel pins on my work shirt collar until I got moved to a different department.

 

I'll talk if people ask but otherwise I stay quiet. Funnily enough I've become closer friends with the dog trainer I work with at Petco from my RD purse.

[BigBossFoxtrot 34]

I regularly wear a very small, subtle necklace of Big Mac. I'm very open about being a fan but I don't shove it down anyone's throat. That necklace is the only hint. My friends are cool with it. And if they weren't? Well I could always find better friends who accept me. Thankfully, I'm kind of a scary guy so no one has ever given me flak for liking the show.  :comeatus:
