Do you like My Little Pony?
of course. I'm a huge fan of Lauren Faust, its creative director. she also did Powerpuff Girls, another great show
I was unaware of that. I grew up watching Powerpuff Girls, but I can't say I'm an MLP fan. Can you fill me in on its concept and fandom?
well, it's meant for young girls and their parents....meant for.......
Yeah, I know a bit about the spread of the fandom. I still don't see the appeal for those outside of the target audience.
yeah around 2010 or 2011 suddenly there was a huge amount of adult men on the internet who loved it
Some websites even decided to ban it outright, or form a "containment board" where it was MLP only and any MLP posts outside that board would be deleted and result in a ban
yeah the "bronies" as they're called are a weird group indeed
Luckily I know none in real life. Or so I think.
you should watch Bronies: The Extremely Unexpected Adult Fans of My Little Pony (what a mouthful) if you want to be creeped out even more! haha it's a good documentary
