Honestly?

I identify with her like whoa. I'm ADHD and all over the place and waaaaaay to enthusiastic about everything, and I'm good at jumping from point a to point 35.

She's fun and goofy and sweet and honestly cares about her friends. I don't know. I just really like her. I don't understand the hate, except that she's exhausting, but... why hate her for that? I guess because I'm hyperactive and have more energy than most of my friends know what to do with, I can understand her a lot better. *shrug*

But I also love the shit out of Rarity so I think I just have unpopular opinions.

Aw, Rarity is my favourite, I didn't know that was such a rare (ha!) thing.

I did not initially care for Rarity: I didn't DISlike her, she just didn't compare to my favourites (Twilight, Fluttershy, Spike, and Pinkie Pie)--I'd say that A Dog and Pony Show is where she won me over a lot, and now I appreciate her previous appearances much more, too. I think I'm not alone in all of that, either.

[identity profile] oddityangel.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
Heh, I actually went through something similar with Twilight. I never disliked her, she was just kind of 'there.' It was only late in the season (around 'A Bird in the Hoof,' I think) that I started to appreciate her. Now when I look back there's a kind of long suffering yet earnest air about her that I really like, and an understated (comparatively speaking!) humor to her that's unique to the character.

I think it helps that she, like Rarity, gets beaten with the moral stick a lot, so any faults she has generally aren't left unaddressed.

Yeah, I've seen a lot of Rarity hate, which weirds me out because I adore her.

Apparently being a typical girly girl is HORRIBLE, especially in a show for girls ;)

She's my favorite. I'm not in the fandom so I don't know how hated she is, but reading this sure made me a little sad. Now if she was a shallow, arrogant fashionista stereotype I could understand it, but she isn't. She's just as friendly and caring as the other ponies, she's just interested in fashion and pretty things *shrugs*

That episode in which she made all these dresses for her friends? It moved me a little.

I love Rarity too! She's such a big sweetheart. I could understand people disliking her if she was your standard 'rich bitch' cliche' or something (like an adult Diamond Tiara) but she represents the Spirit of Generosity: she's very considerate of her friends and does wonderful things for them. The episode where she made those beautiful dresses for her friends and they all gave her crap about it? I wanted to smack all of them for being so rude! I loved her in the 'Diamond Dog' episode too for showing that you don't have to be a tomboy or a hardass to be a cool female character; a concept that a lot of fandoms in general can't seem to grasp.

Funny enough I like Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy the least, and they seem to be the most popular.

[identity profile] mskye.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
Wait, people dislike Rarity? How is this possible?

[identity profile] reanimatrix.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
She's 'girly' and likes fashion and generally... feminine things. People don't seem to like that. Which is... troublesome in its own way.

[identity profile] oddityangel.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
Aw, but Fluttershy likes those things too! I guess she's less 'in your face' about it.

I can think of some legitimate reasons not to like Rarity (especially if you're not the type to forgive her rather unpleasant behavior in 'Sonic Rainboom'), they've just never bothered me because she usually has to own up to her mistakes. Plus she's just generally a fabulous pony!

Different strokes for different folks, I've never been a huge Rainbow Dash fan.

Yeah, Flutter is more subtle and less melodramatic, I think.

Which honestly, it was her melodrama that won me over. XD

But honestly... I'm very snotty about some characters in other fandoms, but I don't understand how anyone could hate ANY of the ponies. I love them all.

(Anonymous) 2011-08-14 02:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess it's because Fluttershy is so fucking insecure. People like insecure girlies. Now if you're a loud, dominant girly girl you're just a bitch for many folks :/

:c

There's nothing wrong with liking fashion, as long as you're not a sheep. Rarity sets trends. She's an artist. And she's not "girly," she's ~*~FABULOUS~*~!

Bawwww she's my favorite character, hahahaha~
