Your thoughts on Bronies/Pegasisters?

113 18 June 29, 2012 at 11:17 AM in Rant (2)
Personally, I am sick of adults obsessing over a show made for prepubescent girls. Would like to know what other 'non-fans' think of the phenomenon.

The hardcore bronies are weird.
Their extreme fandom really discounts any good that might come out of the show.

A few, and there are some in my daughter's school (high school). It does not appear to score them any points with the opposite sex (unless the female is a "pegasister" I guess, which I had not heard before now).

These freaks are invading VG threads too. Here's an example I found:
Quote :
Seriously, I'm actually upbeat and optimistic ever since I started watching it! Even with Mass Effect 3's ending brutalizing my faith in one of my favorite video game franchises of all time... Hell, even with the recession going on, Hollywood and Japan going down the crapper, and not even the video game industry could make it up, I still go back to My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic just to do what this very show expects me to do

I know I shouldn't ask....

So "bronies" are guys that like My Little Pony, right? I've at least heard of MLP (we all know that's the common acronym). But what is "Pegasister"?

That would be kind of silly. Yes, I have my eccentricities, but being a brony is not one of them.

That's exactly what we'd sexpect a closeted Brony to say!

Word for a female fan of the show My little pony: Friendship is magic. Basically: The female version of a Brony.
