Jesus christ it is a tv showI don't care if Mom knows. But I care if she sees it as a bunch of poorly drawn girly girls having tea parties with stuffed animals discussing makeup and tea parties.
I was watching it, too. And thanks to it I've got the last few Invader Zim episodes I was missing on my DVR c:=D
Speaking of Invader Zim.. I was just watching a 24/7 marathon of it yesterday o-o
(No I didn't watch the whole marathon LOL)
Oh, they do watch some of that, but they're awesome and watch awesome shows to even that out. But pretty much everyone else in my grade only watches that crap =/@DaniNomsYou

The herd. It grows.I will say that I turned two people into bronies. c:
I realize this is a bit late, but bloody hell, get off your selfrighteous high and mighty pony.Like she would know about the specifications. All she knows is the MLP franchise as it once was in 1980. Only aimed at girls, not meant for all audiences.
quote from a Q&A by lauren faust (the creator.)Friendship is Magic is her attempt to rescue the genre of girls' cartoons by presenting a clever show with a strong and diverse cast of female characters who aren't pre-occupied with fashion and boys. Her goal was to create an intelligent show for girls and thier family to watch without wanting to instantly shoot themselves.
So basically, yes, it's aimed at little girls. and then it's been tweaked so families can sort of enjoy it instead of just having to endure it.I didn't create this show for little girls, I created it for little girls and their parents
I'm not trying to compare it to coming out of the closet, I only meant to state how my parents have the mentality that a boy who likes things intended for girls is gay. At this point, I've made the decision that since they saw my wallpaper, I won't openly admit unless they suddenly start pestering me about it.I realize this is a bit late, but bloody hell, get off your selfrighteous high and mighty pony.

Stop using the cartoon as the excuse for your liking girl stuff, being socially awkward, teen angst, emo tendancies, or whatever, ok? It's not fair to the cartoon, it's not fair to the people that actually appreciate it for what it is (a cute cartoon. for girls.) And REALLY don't pull shit like "It's not for girls" out of your ass when the creator of the show, on her own defiant art page, specifically says it is, because THAT kind of factual fakery just pisses me off.

Believe me, I would tell them if they weren't all "oh he likes girl shows he must be gay".
My grandmother knows. She doesn't care. Yet, she doesn't have my father's mentality.
It's simply a case of dealing with a homophobic father whom I have no idea what to expect from.
I tend to be a complete idiot when it comes to arguements, especially when it comes to seeing the point of one."In one ear and out the other"
I think you may of completely missed deadl0ck's point, i think part of the point was
"You dont have to goddamned admit this to your parents like its some kind of sexual tabboo because it isn't, its a cartoon show, you watch it you don't preach it. I used to watch a shitton of childrens cartoons when I was 16, i didn't find the need to walk downstairs and go "EVERYBODY, STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING... I... WATCH CLIFFORD THE BIG RED DOG, I HOPE YOU CAN ACCEPT THAT AND ACCEPT ME FOR WHO I AM" Because i understood that its a cartoon show, not a sexual orientation, gender preference, religion, hobby or anything of the like. It's something i watch to pass time and mildly enjoy.
Hell even I have a homophobic "and" racist (Funny story, he still uses the term "wogs" in reference to black people) dad with a short temper, I don't find the damned need to explain to him why im watching a cartoon and I wouldnt bother wasting time announcing something no one cares about, it's a cartoon show, nothing more.
Edit - on that note, Im bisexaul and I worry less about my parents reactions than you do about a fucking cartoon show. I also find less need to announce my TALES OF WOE AND SORROW WITH MY HOMOPHOBIC PARENTS to the public than someone discussing their enjoyment (albeit, fanatical) of a children's show. Sort it out.
I am worried on how they would react,
Edit - on that note, Im bisexual and I worry less about my parents reactions than you do about a fucking cartoon show.
