I have lost a lot of faith in internet mankind...

I've seen so many people that just have this "**** PONIES!" attitude that either stems from hombophobic sexual insecurity or they associate fans with furries and think it's purely a sexual fetish.

That brings up an interesting point, Cain Highwind. My attitude about shows such as My Little Pony is that I do not find it appealing for my tastes. It is not for any reason you gave; however, it is more of what I simply enjoy to watch. Many "sexual fetish" types as dirty minded people would see it as, also is referred to many games in the video game industry when it is done more as a sense of humor.

For an example, take Pi and Tabby from the .hack//GU and //Link series. They are not intended as "girly-girly" nor "sexual fetish." It was designed with the intent of having a sense of humor because of what real female players would make their characters look like, as well the obvious sex appeal marketing type. My answer to the graphics appeal would be like the signature of Dodie16, watching colorful images that leave some people gazing, "Yeah, that's cool." I was a little like that with the openning theme to Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex.

I have never watched those ponies keeping in mind the appeal to people that makes it a little better than most shows right now on tv with the remake, or anything such as Strawberry Shortcake or Care Bears, is a type I simply do not find amusing. Anything gooing with pink and sky blue is the mosting flaming, and the most flaming there ever will be.
