(Anonymous) 2011-08-14 03:04 pm (UTC)(link)A lot of the girls I knew and interacted with when I was younger (preteen/adolescent age) were obsessed with telling and keeping secrets. If you couldn't keep one, no matter how big or small it was, you were a bad friend. Period. Even if revealing it would have done everyone a lot of good or it was something dreadful that was bringing the kid down outside of school, like a divorce. That's just how things worked. You were trusted with a secret and then trusted not to tell that secret. If you did, then you betrayed whomever it was who told you the secret, and you were shunned as a bad friend. It was that simple.
Seeing as the show is primarily aimed at young girls and this behavior of secret-sharing versus secret-keeping seems to be fairly common, I'd say Pinkie's reactions were appropriate. She's not a psychopath or whatever; she comes across to me as (rather comically) trying to keep Twilight in the good graces of the other two by urging her to keep her promise in not revealing either of the other girls' secrets and thus breaking their confidence in her.
