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.

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"?
I'm guessing something to do with a pegasus.

Word for a female fan of the show My little pony: Friendship is magic. Basically: The female version of a Brony.
You sure are quick with the reference links. Again I'm picturing a thirty-something in his mom's basement in the middle of the night lurking my little pony fan forums. Roll

I figured, but I don't remember a pegasus in MLP (I can't believe I'm referring to it as "MLP." laugh out loud)...and my daughter loved everything My Little Pony for a while.

They have 'em. And unicorns too. I know this from helping to stuff valentines that had a different "pony" on each one this past February. laugh out loud

Did you not notice the rant icon next to the forum title? Or are you just defending your friend?
