I used to cut all the hair off my ponies...
I did that to my dolls, too.
Was a weird kid.

[sodapopconnect]

lol I used to pull the heads off of mine.

[djan31]

I did that with my Bratz dolls.
My brother used to tell me they were whores. O_O

[poemwithnorhyme]

I used to hang all of my toys. When I was asked about it, I swore they were just 'leashes'. Hmmm... We were all strange kids, to a degree.

She sounds like an idiot

There's a difference between little boys liking a "girls'" show, and creepy adult men watching a show about sexualized horses

[wauwy]

Sexualized?

[nuclearcouture]

Yeah maybe that's a bit extreme, I moreso meant they're anthropomorphized and become fetishized for the adult men watching (the ones not watching it cause of their kids)

[kaelstra]

Yeah protip, she doesn't draw them to be sexual, people are sexualizing them because they can.

There is a world of difference.

[wauwy]

Good for her tbh

[ext_382399]

I'll just ditto this. I've never even heard of this show, or her, but I like her already.

[bagelofdeath]

There are definitely some creepy, creepy man-children fans of the show. But I think that applies to any fandom you can name.

[mac7u3]

And that's exactly it. You can find creepy fans any where.

[forcestrong]

Yep. Rule #34 exists for a reason.
