[diet_poison]

But according to your logic, calling yourself a "vegetarian aspiring artist who likes Wagner" is tacitly associating yourself with Hitler anyway.

[visp]

Not at all. Liking something isn't the same as saying "I'm an X."

[(Anonymous)]

Potentially clarifying analogy:

"FiM fan" is to "brony" as "Star Trek fan" is to "Trekkie".

SA

[(Anonymous)]

Or perhaps even more aptly, as "anime fan" is to "otaku".

[(Anonymous)]

Except Trekkies are only guilty of being generally awkward, overly-enthusiatic nerds. Plus Trekkies are Trekkies because they're huge fans of the show. Bronies are bronies because 'ooh, look at me! I'm a dude who likes a little girls show!'.

[diet_poison]

Except that's what brony generally means. It means, "I like MLP [and I'm male, unless I'm using it in a gender-neutral way]"

[(Anonymous)]

It's what it used to mean. Now it has taken on a connotation of unsavory (usually male) fan of the show. Even many legit fans don't want to use the term for that reason.

[diet_poison]

I'm not going to argue that the connotation isn't there. It is. But I like to think people are more intelligent and less knee-jerky than to assume it's a universal definition. The only real definition I have seen is the one I mentioned. Enough bronies aren't even involved in online fandom that I think it's silly to apply that connotation to all of them.

[fuchsiascreams]

So the difference is only the difference between liking something and giving yourself a nickname because you like something? I just don't understand the point you're trying to make. Usually I agree with the things you post on here (as far as I can remember), but this doesn't even make sense.

[visp]

"brony" has a lot of shitty behavior implied. "I like MLP" doesn't have the same implications.

[fuchsiascreams]

I guess I just don't understand the difference. I've only ever seen "brony" used in reference to men who watch MLP.

[(Anonymous)]

wow there are not even words to describe how wrong and fucking gross this comment is.

[diet_poison]

lol, okay? I'm not the one who came up with that analogy, I was just running with it.

[(Anonymous)]

how is that any different from the comment that diet_poison even responded to in the first place
