(Anonymous) 2013-03-05 01:56 pm (UTC)(link)Both things happened to me. When I first got into fandom I was told I absolutely couldn't call myself a brony. I think "pegasister" sounds silly so I went with "pony-fan".
Cue a few months later and I got fans telling me I AM a brony, no ifs or buts about it, omg why won't you admit you like the show, we have to show solidarity no matter what other fans do~.
And then I stayed the hell away from the fandom.

I don't really do much with the online fandom. irl I've encountered a variety of people - some I liked, some not so much or in-between.
Maybe the reason it has such a bad reputation is you'd expect the fandom to be so much nicer...but it's just as wanky and messed up as any other fandom =/

(Anonymous) 2013-03-06 12:27 pm (UTC)(link)You know, I think that's a huge reason for the backlash. I know several bronies are protesting about having "love and tolerate" applied to them because it's not true, but it was kinda their motto for a long time.
I think another reason is its size. It's as wanky and messed up as other fandoms, but it's so big that it's much more noticeable.
