Golden Oak Library: My Little Pony Friendship is Magic

[Wisconsin9]

Because that's how it works. Butt apple => straight.

Well considering that The Apples tend to be more traditional minded (canon BTW), it would only make sense that they would believe in a more traditional kind of relationship & marriage.

Plus...NOT EVERY MARE NEEDS TO BE IN A LESBIAN RELATIONSHIP!

Assuming that's actually a tradition among ponies, which I've been presented with no reason to believe.

Nature would like to speak to you about heterosexuality.
And that it's pretty common.

I assume it would also like to say something about relatively equal gender ratios?

[Ameriganastan]

Well that's why Ficksitup is a guy. I saw lesbian ships everywhere, I wanted to write a straight one.

I'll still always be one of the first and only guys to have a well rated OC/Mane shipfic that is also straight. One of the earlier straight fics, at that.

Hope you didn't hurt your shoulder patting yourself on the back like that...

Are we doing the gender ratio in equestria thing again.

Are we really.

Are we fucking really. Because it's retarded to ignore the fact that young girls are still the demographic, so naturally we'll see more ladies than men in the show.

Come on. I can't tolerate a strawman like that.

[Ifreann]

Long, har...

Or that

Not very long, adequate though.
But certainly hard.

And full of sailors.




Wait...

Among the main characters, yes, I agree that it is completely normal to see characters tailored towards the target demographic. Considering, though, that most of the characters seen period are female...

...Yes, that's my point exactly. We're flat out going to see more women.

You're not REALLY making this argument are you? You ARE pulling my leg right? Because I hope to god for my opinion of you, that you are.

[Ameriganastan]

Well someone's got to.

Humility is a nice trait for a writer, be they published authors or fanfic writers, to have. It's a little tasteless to laud yourself like that.

[Orangi]

I really rarely do. Most of the time I beat myself down or don't allow praise. I'm proud of very few things that I'm done.

I'm allowed a little self praise.

[Ifreann]

Soon.

[Orangi]

Soon.

Dayum.

If you have a better explanation as to why most of the utterly meaningless background ponies who get a few lines of panic if they're lucky are female, I'd love to hear it.

There's a difference between "A little self praise" and going "My fic was so original and amazing! And I was one of the first to do it!"

How many female autobots or decepticons do you see?

Who is the show marketed to?

What company is in charge of the I.P.?

There you go.

Maybe I should have specified that I was hoping for an in-universe reason.

Well, sadly we won't find one. But we can safely assume this is the true reason, and thus, equally assume that there is a reasonable ratio.

A pony's innate magic corrects genetic abnormalities in utero. Unfortunately, this sometimes leads to Y chromosomes getting edited to an X, thus the greater number of mares than stallions.

Or in other words, there is no in-universe argument, so you're claiming the actual reason has edited said universe despite all appearances to the contrary.

So you're telling me with this random logic, that men have a higher chance of being flawed than women.

That's not very friendship.

Do you just poop words and then try to form sentences with whatever came out

Wow, fantastic counter-point that.

No, magic is just derp sometimes. And it's not my logic, I think I'm cribbing it from A Xenophile's Guide To Equestria.
