Brony

A word used to refer to a fan of the show My Little Pony, normally the new revived version of the show known as generation 4 or My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. It suddenly became popular when released in 2010, especially in America and it is known there are now millions of bronies spread worldwide. Plural: Bronies The majority of these people are male and around the age of 20 although this varies widely. Many non-bronies seem to think all male bronies are gay/bisexual/pansexual ect. This, however, is a common misconception. The children's cartoon is well known for appealing to its adult fans, great animation and interesting characters which are not something you would normally see in a kid's show. Despite being known as a programme for young girls, in reality the creator of the new version (Lauren Faust) made it for families. A brony is often a happy person. They could be anyone, even people you wouldn't expect; for example, the most popular girl/boy, the geeky quiet girl/boy or your best friend.
