ReGen 1,466 May 17, 2013 Share May 17, 2013 I'm gonna go ahead and say no. Not for me, I suppose. Although i've never met a Brony before, so I maybe should stop talking. Er, typing...

Bucky McGillyCuddy 956 May 17, 2013 Share May 17, 2013 I'm yet to meet another Brony irl. I did see a guy wearing a Vinyl Scratch shirt once but i was working and never got a chance to talk. If you'd be so kind as to check out some of my drawings, I would really appreciate feedback. http://mlpforums.com/topic/82464-feedback-is-magic/?hl=feedback+is+magic#entry2127254 http://mlpforums.com/topic/82871-what-happens-when-a-pony-fights-a-griffin/?p=2178588 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutemutt 773 May 17, 2013 Share May 17, 2013 Well it certainly counts for something just for being a similar interest, but it's not very high on my list of desirable hobbies and interests. I find myself more attracted to those that play instruments (besides the piano and guitar [sorry pianists/guitarists]). Of course, any like interest would be a plus, unless it gets to a point where we're creepily similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just some guy 1,070 May 18, 2013 Share May 18, 2013 I've met up with a few bronies irl.Suffice to say,I think we both had a mutual dislike for each other. :L That being said,I personally don't find that being a MLP fan certainly makes a person more attractive or likeable.The character is the first and foremost important thing to me.Anything else is secondary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fhaolan 4,483 May 18, 2013 Share May 18, 2013 Sadly there seems to be no bronies/pegasisters where I live. Or if there are, they hide themselves very well. Now I have the mental picture of hundreds of bronies/pegasisters all around you, but in special camouflage gear just so you can't see them. I'm married to a non-pegasister, so I can't really comment on the topic as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa 5,553 May 18, 2013 Share May 18, 2013 I once dated a pegasister, (I'm bisexual fyi), I guess it sort of does make the person more attractive because you are both fans of something, so you would have an easier time in conversations and...stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GummyPie 106 May 18, 2013 Author Share May 18, 2013 Sadly there seems to be no bronies/pegasisters where I live. Or if there are, they hide themselves very well. While I don't make it a requirement for someone to like ponies for me to want to date them or be their friend, it does make them 10,000 times more awesome to me. Same way I would feel if they shared any of my other interests, but for some reason meeting someone who also likes ponies would make me even more giddy. I try to put the beacons out there (wearing pony merch, etc.) but nobody ever seems to notice. Oh well, at least I have a community of online pony fans to turn to, so that's something! I know what you mean :/ According to most people I dont look like I'd like MLP. I dont know what that means but it almost feels insulting. -_- I once dated a pegasister, (I'm bisexual fyi), I guess it sort of does make the person more attractive because you are both fans of something, so you would have an easier time in conversations and...stuff. To me MLP is not just an interest, it's more unique than that. I'd say it's a lifestyle. I see the world in a different way because of MLP, so it's hard to connect with someone who see's it the way most people do. I'm not sure I can explain... Am I making sense? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyPoni 564 May 19, 2013 Share May 19, 2013 Yeah XD If I met a Pegasister in real life and she was mildly attractive to me (and nice), I would probably see her as being much more attractive because of ponies It may be shallow, but it is the truth XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavelColt 22,881 May 19, 2013 Share May 19, 2013 I haven't met any bronies irl that weren't one of my close friends that I ended up getting into the show, but by general principle, I guess it makes sense. You look at someone, find out their a brony, and just by that, you can tell they're probably not narrow-minded or judgmental about things like the show and societies' retarded stereotypes. Making a big connection by finding something out about someone would probably have that effect. 'Is probably intelligent/has a good head on their shoulders' sort of thing. I'm drop-dead hot regardless of bronydom, personally :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrashy 2,800 May 19, 2013 Share May 19, 2013 Not necessarily the case with me. It would be pretty cool, just to have that one extra thing for us to share in common, but my own personal prerequisite for a potential mate would simply be that she'd need to be into technical music (classical, jazz, metal, etc.) and have a personality/sense of humor that meshes with my own. And if she were into MLP, I'd prefer it if she wasn't hardcore about it. I respect the die hard fans' passion and everything, but I'm not such a fan myself, so being around someone who never shuts up about the show would drive me a little nuts after a while. I'd be like "Dude, aren't you into anything else?" "No, gimme ponies!" "How about Red Dwarf, or--" "NO. PONIES." P.S.: If you're a girl and love Red Dwarf, marry me. Right now.

~Luminiferous Ether~ 107 May 19, 2013 Share May 19, 2013 Yeah, i've noticed this.

Love4discord18 269 May 19, 2013 Share May 19, 2013 Ive never experienced this. I smile because i found another brony, but i dont find them more attractive. I dont find anyone more attractive because they like or do something lol 1 ~If You Want Me To Reply To Your Post, Quote My Post~ ( Siggy by me.

MrHaru 217 May 19, 2013 Share May 19, 2013 I wish there were more bronies where I live T-T My friends dont like mlp and frown upon my mlp ways. I couldnt date someone who wasnt even a little bit into mlp Same exact thing with me here, but trying to find girls that are into MLP here where I'm at is....a bit rough. The girls I know now are either: 1) Across the world and have kids of their own or 2) Underage so I'm pretty bummed about my chances but oh well. Perhaps someday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheStareMaster 45 May 19, 2013 Share May 19, 2013 I don't know any bronies personally but I have a few suspicions who who is a brony.

GummyPie 106 May 21, 2013 Author Share May 21, 2013 Well, while I do agree that many bronies are more attractive because they are bronies, I cannot say it's 100% true the whole time. Want a example? Well.... *points at himself* WAITAMINUTE! what do you mean by that? are you saying your not attractive?? Hey! For me what makes a person attractive are these following qualities: 1)a tard sense of humor 2)Intelligence/Nerdy 3)Drive 4)A good heart. I have dated really good looking men in my life but I hated it, they were so vapid and it made them really ugly. I know it's a cliche but the way you look is not what matters. Not to me. And I also don't dig that whole overly self confidence act, just because you're "pretty" it doesn't give you the right to invade my personal space with your "hey baby". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this, just because two people like a show doesn't mean that they're going to be similar, are two people similar because they like spongebob? I've met quite a few bronies in real life, I've had good experiences with most of them, but it's just remembering that just because you both like a show doesn't mean you will both have similar interests. So for me, it doesn't really matter to me if the person likes ponies or not, as long as they don't stop me from doing what I like. For example, my current boyfriend hates bronies, but he'll still help me with pony projects and stuff. 2 wut wat?

Well reading this made me feel better even though this wasn't even directed at me. Girls where I'm at are so vain and fake NOT to mention my own personal experience with...well stuff...that I have all but given up bothering. But it makes me feel like I have a slim chance with at least ONE person like you existing and throwing a monkey wrench in society's cogs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antismurf9001 1,271 May 23, 2013 Share May 23, 2013 Yeah, I'd have to agree with the original statement. It's nice to have a common interest because it gives me something to talk about, since typically I don't speak unless I know what I'm talking about. I suppose ponies is definitely a good interest to have in common, because you know that they at least tolerate it. I also admit that it would be a little exciting actually meeting another brony (I've met very few), so that would work to their benefit as well. Sadly, I won't be reaping the benefits of this attractiveness boost anytime soon... The chances that anyone would discover my involvement in the fandom are exceptionally slim, given that I do my best to remain discreet about it.

None42069 520 May 23, 2013 Share May 23, 2013 While I believe that random mashing on the numpad doesn't count as a legit number, I would have to agree that bronies are more attractive. Case in point: I'm practically sparkling here. No, I'm not a vampire and that Rachel doesn't sparkle (except for that one time I delivered that sparkle bomb to her).

Krys9 456 May 23, 2013 Share May 23, 2013 Wow dating someone who is also a brony would be...heaven.... Seriously, just thinking about this makes me really happy and even a bit anxious to go back on the dating scene. LOL! Signature made by me.

Freewave 1,145 May 23, 2013 Share May 23, 2013 Finding out someone else is a brony is like having a special connection. I know that doesn't mean they have to be a nice person or have a similar personality as mine but the likelihood is we'll have much more in common then any joe off the street. Def makes them 20% cooler in my book. I have made brony music since 2011. I like all kinds of music and genres. I'm sure you'll like some of it.. Here's My YouTube..I have several albums on Bandcamp and Pony.FM. Check out the 20+ Musician project Maressey which I am running. Check out the Brony Music Directory and FimMusic.

~Master~ Button Mash 2,307 May 23, 2013 Share May 23, 2013 (edited) I know I already posted in this thread, but... Since going to ACen, and seeing the kinds of couples I've seen there, it only helped to further drive home in my mind, the importance of mutual interests. So many people there bonded over a common interest like anime, gaming, etc., and it seemed like they were having so much fun (there were a couple brony couples, too). I know you can't judge a book by it's cover, but I just got a...vibe that they were all really happy (plus if my best friend's relationship with his girlfriend is anything to go by). I know it would be like heaven if I could go to ACen or Bronycon with a pony-loving special somepony. Best. Vacation. Ever.

hawkflame 3,310 May 24, 2013 Share May 24, 2013 I would love to find a pegasister in my age group (preferably late 20s- mid 30s). Being a brony is "odd" enough, being 10+ years out of the typical Brony age range makes things a bit more challenging... I don't know if it makes them more attractive, but having that common interest does give that instant "leg-up". Sig by Thunderstorm Check out my Rarity fansite!

BaneShea 10 May 24, 2013 Share May 24, 2013 I can agree with this. After finding mlp, I tried to introduce my boyfriend for months. Finally he gave in (with some bribery ) and now he LOVES it! I've never been more in love with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~StatesTheOblivious~ 1,795 May 24, 2013 Share May 24, 2013 Too bad, that I don't know any bronies in real life and we seem to be pretty rare here in Germany ... Or am I wrong?
