My Favourite Mane 6 Pony: Fluttershy

How did you find MLP Forums?: by the power of friend ship

How you became a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: i gave it a chance! that's all. i heard of it, and i gave it a chance.

i stumbled apon the show... i wasnt sure what to make of it. i mean, i loved from the very first episode... but i was often beaten and made fun of being gay. when i found this show, i was really conflicted beacause i dont know what to make of it... i was a closet brony for a while but when some one very close to me took her own life, i had had enough! i walked out on the school stage during the assembly the next day and i screamed to teh school, "IS THERE SOME THING WRONG WITH WHO I AM?! IS THE WAY I AM BOTHERING YOU? WELL I DONT GIVE A BUCK (yes i said buck)!! EVERY PONY IN HERE MAKES ME SICK SEEING AS HOW THEY TREAT OTHERS FOR BEING DIFFERENT! WELL I HAD ENOUGH! I AM NOT TALKING THIS ANYMORE! MY BEST FRIEND DIED YESTERDAY BECAUSE OF (NSFW) SICK BASTARDS LIKE YOU WHO THRIVE OFF THE PAIN OF OTHERS BECAUSE YOU CAN'T EXCEPT WHO YOU ARE!" the biggest bully in the school walks up on stage. mind you he is about twice my size. he looked me straight in the eye... and said "bro hoof". the entire school went insane and he said "if ANYONE even touches him, they will have to deal with me!"

 

 

to this day i havent fully gotten over the heart ache of my death of my friend... our friend ship was "different". its not that we loved each other in a relation ship way.... i dont want to go into detail of it lik ethis. if you want to know, message me and i will be more than happy to answer ANY of your questions. keep in mind, i do not think it is wrong to ask questions.

 

so that's my story. well, a little bit of it. there's still alot to be said. message me if you have any questions for me. Bye!

To begin, I'll say, "Welcome to the forum"!

 

To answer the question in your OP title, no, there's NOTHING shameful about being a brony. I graduated from college almost a year ago, and I admit to being a brony unabashedly. There are hundreds of thousands of people all of the world who are bronies; in America alone, there are several brony-themed conventions, the biggest being BronyCon. I've got no shame to admit this, and nor should you.

 

And I'm very sorry about your close friend.

You don't have to be ashamed of liking something. As long as you never do anything that over-the-top or forcing it to others, everything is cool.

 

Anyway, welcome to the forum!

thank you very much... it means alot to be accepted some where... i mean, i have friends and stuff at my new school... but it's different. not much of them are bronies and even fewer are accepting to it. but thanks again on your kind words...

Oh, Dear Celestia! Your story is that of heart breaking news and a William Wallace tale! I am more then happy to welcome you to the Forums and the Brony community around the world. I myself am not gay, but I certainly don't oppose it, because of the fact that no one has any right to judge others. I can't even judge myself, so how can I doing anything, let alone say anything to you, except encourage you and be there for you as a new found friend

Holy heck on a stick, you've got quite a bit of a life-story thar!

 

I find it freakin' awesome that a bully turned out to be a brony and so on. Honest, I'm jelly of you.

 

Anywho, welcome to our little piece of the internet. Enjoy your stay.

 

P.S. No, it's not a problem to be a brony. It's not shameful in the least. If that were the case, then being a fan of SpongeBob would too be considered sacrilege.
