My Little Ponies as lesbian feminist separatists?
"...a lesbian feminist theme emerges nonetheless. As the movie opens, we see the MLPs’ happy little world…all female, adults and young-’uns living together communally. Interestingly, there are often “baby” versions of the same pony sold in stores. This would support the theory that the ponies reproduce by parthenogenesis, an asexual reproductive process that would result in the same genes in the daughter as in the mother. And, due to age differences within the colony/commune, reproduction is probably going on."
