@dlcentaur I'm just saying that there's a certain line that goes from being a fan, to being just plain creepy. I'm talking about the guys with about $5000 of pony merch, (Don't laugh, I know a bloke who actually has that much, perhaps more.) I'm talking about the ones that scream at everyone they know, "OMG Y HAVEN'T U SEEN TEH SHOW YET????? FLUTTERSHY IS BESTEST PONY!!!!" etc. I mean the ones that cover every. Single. Inch of available clothing in pony pins and stickers and patches, who own every single toy ever made and can recite every episode by heart. I know people who've done that and more. Now, don't get me wrong; this fandom's created a lot of amazing things. I've seen some brilliant music, art, writing, and even some quality animation, but the media (and thus, the public at large) isn't going to show that. Instead we get portrayed as the "group of pedophiles that watch animated ponies"
