    I'm the worst :D

    I know! Terrible.

    Just popping in for my periodic State of the Dancer, you know how I do.

    Previously, I was lamenting my lack of free time due to the whole working full time and having my smol child. I decided to add to that by rebooting the soap business.

    Oh hey

    Wow, been a hot minute, eh?

    I've missed this site. Last year, I went through Some Shit over the summer and fall, and then I got engaged in November to a very nice man.

    We get married in five days, and I had noticed a lot of registry gifts coming in all of a sudden with real names attached that I did not recognize.

Serious question · 8:30pm Feb 16th, 2013

The hell is wrong with wanting to be a princess?

The show has shown that being a princess is clearly not all fun and games and being pampered. It's work

Remember this:

or maybe this:

Or how about this

plus that whole thing where they run the entire country and oh, are responsible for moving the fucking sun and moon.

I'm getting mighty annoyed at the folks that are assuming that being a princess means a cakewalk and no real work or character development can happen because eww, girly!

^that's another form of misogyny. Stop that. Bad ponies.

834624 it's always creepy, who you kiddin

The whole fucking immortal thing might play a part in it.

Pfft, you love it.
Plus, princesses kick ass(even if they're all technically queens) my only issue is that they are queens, and are given the title of princess because it sounds cute.

834660 do i thinks he should have just been made a princess without being asked? fuck no, and I hope that had she declined, celestia would have turned her back. that's a huge burden.

But the people whining that she's a princess now because 'every little girl wants to be a princess' and they take that to mean 'every little girl wants to be a spoiled little bitch that sits on her ass and does nothing' need to get their heads out their asses post-haste

It's because people continue to think this series is about humans and the majority of humans are chauvinistic pigs, so thus, to them, princess = pretty bargaining tool/fuck doll, when in reality they are the hardest and noblest beings in Equestria, since this show is about PONIES not humans

834686 then those people have not been fucking paying attention to the show at all, and I wonder if they're even fans because really, one must be blind to think the way they do

834698

And that is my issue with a lot of this fandom, they clearly are not paying attention to what's happening in this series. Same thing goes for the fics that are cast aside because they don't follow the same bullshit their parents shoved down their throats, they continue to think these ponies are just humans in pony suits or something, it's so dumb, there is zero logic with these people.

Yup. That is why I am looking forward to S4. There is so much they can do with Twilight now.

The wait will kill me.

My point is that throughout time, being a princess was a do nothing job. The same applies to a prince.
The duties always fell upon the king and queen. Cadance and Shining are both rulers, they're married which makes them king and queen. Celestia and Luna are both the rulers of equestria so they are queens.
Twilight and Blueblood are princess and prince, because they are not ruling anything at the moment.

Dear Princess Celestia,

Queen it up bitch.

your faithful student,
Princess Twilight Sparkle

834765 Throughout time-on OUR planet. Not Equestria. It doesn't matter if they're called a Princess or a Queen-they're doing the damn job, the title shouldn't matter. Princess is more equitable and approachable. And Cadence is NOT a queen, she is still a Princess.

Given how many fandoms make up words to suit a purpose already filled by an existing word, this is a red herring

835144
King Sombra.
QUEEN Chrysalis.

835471

It doesn't matter if they're called a Princess or a Queen-they're doing the damn job, the title shouldn't matter.

And perhaps they differentiate themselves from those two, and use the other title for that reason? I'm also not sure it matters that much, Chucky boy.

What do you mean? This is the most important thing of all time.

The funny thing about my writing is Celestia making Twilight a princess so suddenly like that Jossed me more than anything else because she wants to let Twi have chance at a real life first and puts off giving her extra responsibility as long as possible. Of course my stuff is already AU anyway so it's not a big deal but I"m trying to keep the characters the same as much as possible, just altering events.

Uh, so yea, I agree with you.

I wanna be a princess
