A Message About Tolerance

This is a status update that was posted on a Twilight Sparkle page on Facebook. I wanted as many people as possible to see this because it couldn't be more true. THIS is a reason why I like My Little Pony so much is because this is the kind of stuff it promotes. 

"I just wanted to take a moment to remind you all of something.. We were all born from the same elements from the supernovae of dying stars. We were all born onto the same planet, conceived in the same way, born through the same way and ultimately we all face the same fate. I don't care what anypony says or does, one life is of the same value as another regardless of personal accomplishments, and you will never have the right to talk down to me, nor will I ever have the right to talk down to you. Someponies would do very well to remember that!"


I hope everyone who reads this takes this message to heart.

By the way, I'm a brony

Well the title pretty much says it all. Tho ever since I became a brony, I've been hearing about mixed views of the brony community. A couple nights ago while searching for pony pics, I came across an article written by a 'concerned mom.' She was worried about grown men watching the show while holding little pink pony figures and getting turned on and she said that bronies were like a step below being a child molester. That part insulted me. I'm a grown man and I like My Little Pony and I'm not afraid to admit it. That certainly doesn't mean that I get turned on watching the show, nor do I molest children. That is disgusting. Fluttershy is my favorite pony because she reminds me of how I was when I was little, shy and quiet. Sure, MLP is geared toward little girls, but that doesn't mean I can't watch it as a 22 year old man. I have a friend who's older than me and even more of a brony than I am. I don't understand what's wrong with liking a show that promotes values like friendship, tolerance, caring, loyalty, laughter, generosity, kindness and more. It's a lot better than other things I could be in to. I wish some people would stop looking at the brony community so negatively. 

Just wanted to rant that out.
