Spark Flight 28 March 14, 2014 Share March 14, 2014 Never would I have pictured me as a young man, a welder, and soon to be father as a brony. So what do I do? How bad of a wrap do bronys get? But who cares. The show is awesome, and my welding hood at work now reads " This hood just got 20% cooler" Thankfully they aint figured it out yet. Thanks everypony. Hope to hear back Anypony gonna help me out? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheChosenPony 279 March 14, 2014 Share March 14, 2014 Theres nothing wrong with it. You dont have to conform to the "norm" that society beats everyone down to. You will be an even better father as a brony I can assure you %500 Nobody who isn't a brony will figure it out really- 2 May the force be with you, always Subscribe to my youtube channel, It'll give you a laugh, hell maybe two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugar Cube 4,843 March 14, 2014 Share March 14, 2014 @, Hello! I just wanted to let you know that I moved your thread to Sugarcube Corner. The Welcoming Plaza is better suited for introducing yourself, but since it seems you are more interested in seeking advice and information about the brony fandom, Sugarcube Corner is a much better fit for your thread for now. Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scootalove 10,689 March 14, 2014 Share March 14, 2014 Nothing wrong with that at all, a lot of people have a soft side to them. You are who you choose to be, nothing weird or morally wrong about it. 1 Credit: Moony © Forum FAQ Forum Rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanks 10,816 March 14, 2014 Share March 14, 2014 I didn't think I would be into cartoon ponies either, I think most of us didn't see it coming. I had a period of disbelief too and moments of "what the hell am I watching and why can't I stop" toward the beginning but eventually just thought "who care if this show is about cartoon ponies, it is still awesome." For the most part I have treated it like I would any other interest even if the intensity of it is a bit greater than most of my interests right now I have had a few other strange hobbies over the years and ponies isn't all that strange now that I think about it, it is really only viewed as strange by "polite society" but I have told it to kiss the fattest part of my ass years before I ever got into ponies. Yes bronies do get a lot of unjustified hate from idiots who are insecure about their masculinity, sexuality or both and feel the need to project their perceived inadequacies onto what they view as an easy target and of course there is also the fact that bronies are giving traditional gender roles the middle finger (it is about damn time too) which does scare a lot of sheep who have been conditioned to believe whatever they are told instead of thinking for themselves. This is not to say that bronies are perfect saints as there are some rather annoying and unpleasant ones but still.
