@clayinthecarpet I already understand that from what you've said. Your view of the show being innocent and pure, and forming standards for fanfction based on an exoectation to uphold said innocence and pureness, is not consistent with your cited example of a fanfiction you like (University Days). While making an exception doesnt interfere with your opinion of ponies being best enjoyed at a g-rated level), it does impair your ability to logically defend your uninformed opinion of fanfictions you havent read. We both understand the show's intention, along with a standard of what a fanfiction should be, then you have prejudice towards anything that seems out of the ordinary. The only thing I really find intellectually offensive is how you say romance "perverts" a show's premise to perpetually grow and nurture relationships. In my opinion, having a story which toils through conflicts that adults face in the real world (debt, *college,* etc) is more antithetical and less pure than romance.
