Is Big Macintosh like a male Fluttershy?

Recommended Posts

Personality-wise, both Big Mac and Fluttershy are very shy but incredibly kind and gentle by nature. So, that said, is Big Mac like a male Fluttershy that's stronger in his resolve?

Mac is far more assertive and confident. He will always speak his mind and give his opinion and isn't afraid to fight for it to be heard. I wouldn't even say Mac is 'shy' but rather just a 'quiet' person. People just see that as shyness in a pony as big and strong as Mac.

It is for such similarities-yet-differences that Fluttershy and Big Macintosh are theorized by fans to be an adorable couple together. That is, if their visual character design wasn't appealing as well.

 

You've made a few different yet similar threads, @@ggg-2-- specifically regarding how you'd like to make opinions known and thought about Big Macintosh. I like him too, but it is not out of the question to comment on your own threads.

Applejack has said that Big Mac is shy but tha dosen't mean that he is as shy as Fluttershy, she has been shown to literally be afraid of her own shadow. Aside from that and being fairly quiet and introverted we don't really have much to go on for Big Mac. I think they probably have a few things in common and as a lot of people suspect might make a good match, but I don't think they are similar enough to say that Big Mac is a male version of Fluttershy though.

This.

 

Why can't I "like" it twice?

 

I guess since they are, in certain ways similar, it explains the constant Fluttershy and Big Mac shipping.

No. I don't think that Mac is shy, he's just very calm and collected. Which means that he's actually a total opposite of Fluttershy, who can be afraid even of her own shadow and is always nervous about what others might think.

No, not really. He may be quiet, and even a little shy but not as much as Fluttershy. He could get in front of the crowd to sing no problem, whereas it gave Fluttershy stage fright.

Scootaloo: Sweetie Belle is right. Big McIntosh is the perfect match for Miss Cheerilee. He's really nice, super hard-working. Apple Bloom: Hmm... but he's also pretty shy. He's never gonna ask Miss Cheerilee to be his very special somepony     So here you have it. According to his sister who should know him Big Mac is shy and is canon. (and hinted toward Cheerilee you silly fluttermac shippers)

Sort of, but not completely. Big Mac is the "strong silent" kind who can talk, sing, and exert himself through physical strength when working on the farm even though he is still generally a quiet person. On the other hand, Fluttershy is more talkative, meek, soft-spoken, and afraid of attention.

 

The only things they both have in common is that they are under the general descriptions of being reserved and socially awkward at times.

Mac has no anxieties and can talk to anypony with out the awkwardness which Fluttershy shows. He's more assurtive and will flat out say nope if the situation demands it. Even if its his own sisters in the wrong he'll say it.

 

Mac is just your regular working class silent badass. :)

Can't really say anything that hasn't already been said. Big Macintosh is internally stronger and more confident than Fluttershy and takes his work and family very seriously on a personal level. He's very practical, only talking when he needs to. Fluttershy's quietness comes from a lack of internal confidence. Both have kind and level-headed personalities (except when Fluttershy is pushed to rage) and can be like parent figures to others at times.
