MLP R34 Status Update / Famous Bronies · 7:13pm Sep 5th, 2012
Some of you may remember my blog post from last month that examined MLP's rising dominance in Rule 34. For those who missed it, or want a refresher, you can find it here.
It's been one month, so let's examine the stats again. (Data based on information gathered from rule34.paheal.net)
Year series Series name Number of porn images Number of new Number of porn images Monthly percentage
Started as of Aug. 5, 2012 porn images added as of Sept. 5, 2012 increase of porn images
1996 Pokemon 50758 895 51653 1.8%
1996 Touhou 28914 1114 30028 3.9%
1934 DC 16386 459 16845 2.8%
2010 My Little Pony: FIM 13424 1941 15365 14.5%
1987 Street Fighter 13340 129 13469 1%
1939 Marvel 12417 285 12702 2.3%
1999 Naruto 10798 172 10970 1.6%
1991 Sonic Team 10338 175 10513 1.7%
My Little Pony is still in fourth place, but considering that MLP generated more than four times as much porn as DC last month, it shouldn't be long before MLP firmly entrenches itself as one of the top three Rule 34 producers.
From there, it will be a long, hard struggle to make any headway towards the coveted first or second slots. When compared to Pokemon or Touhou, MLP produces roughly twice as much porn per month as either of them; but even with those number, it could still take months, if not years for MLP to take the number one spot and surpass the Pokemon porn powerhouse.
Oh, and for those who are interested, here's how our lovely leading ladies stack up in terms of smut.
Name: Number of porn images Number of new porn Number of porn images Monthly percentage
as of Aug. 5 2012: images added as of Sept. 5, 2012 increase of porn images
Twilight Sparkle:
1924 580 2504 30.1%
Rainbow Dash:
1825 458 2283 25.1%
Pinkie Pie:
1560 488 2048 31.3%
Fluttershy:
1438 440 1878 30.6%
Rarity:

Applejack:

Having reported on last month's fourteen percent increase in new pony porn, now seems like as good a time as any to discuss celebrity bronies. Not counting those who have worked on the show, famous bronies include Lady Gaga, Seth Green, and motivational speaker Andrew W. K.
I bring this up because celebrities are people, too. They have their own sexual fetishes that might be shared with some of their fans.
For example, Quentin Tarantino, the writer/director behind such films as “Pulp Fiction” and “Kill Bill,” revealed on the Tyra Banks show that he has a penchant for female feet, but he would “not go so far as to call it a fetish.”
“Kill Bill” star Uma Thurman confirmed Tarantino’s foot fetish in an interview, citing that he would constantly film her feet and other female feet on the set “every chance he got.” (His films "Pulp Fiction,” “Kill Bill” and “Grindhouse” include close-up shots of female feet.)
Comedian Jack Black also has an attraction to feet, which he revealed in an interview with “Playboy”:
“They have to be clean. I’m not into, like, funky odors, but I do have a bit of a foot fetish, yes. I find myself staring at feet. I like a heel. If she’s wearing clogs, that does something for me. Flip-flops. Sandals. Bare feet are the best.”
Ricky Martin has a watersports fetish. In an interview with "Blender" magazine, the "Livin la Vida Loca" singer admitted to enjoying urinating on partners during sex acts.
"I love giving the golden shower. I've done it before in the shower. It's like so sexy, you know, the temperature of your body and the shower water is very different."
I bring this up because I wonder how you would feel if there was a celebrity clopper? For example, what if Lady Gaga said she got turned on by Rule 34 images of Photo Finish?
(And before anyone points it out, yes, I'm aware that Photo Finish is based off of Anna Wintour, not Lady Gaga.)
My point is, would a celebrity brony who enjoys clopfics or Rule 34 images of MLP be a good thing or a bad thing for the fandom? Would it add credibility to the brony community as a whole or would it simply reenforce the negative stereotypes associated with cloppers?
Feel free to discuss this in the comments, as well as any other topic related to MLP Rule 34.
I'm not sure what to make of it honestly. If a celebrity digs Rule 34, then they do. Celebrities have a lot more social pressure than regular people do, and if such news got out, it'd reveal topeople the world over that even celebrities like something so nationally hated.
Would this incite an assault against the celebrity in question? If you're FOX News, most likely yes. If you're a regular person, you'll shrug, accept it, and walk off to your room to think about life and the universe. If you're a person who really can't stand this kind of stuff, you'll go on your Twitter and bitch about it.
When it comes down to it, a celebrity will remain a celebrity; this kind of thing would only add to their notoriety and throw Rule 34 of ANY fandom into the spotlight for all to take. Who knows, maybe it'll even shift what society accepts as 'normal'? Our famous people are considered trendsetters.
Maybe Rule 34 is about to get its chance in the spotlight, if celebs really do like what fandoms do?
We can do it. We must all do our part and post pony porn
SETH GREEN IS BEST BRONY MUTHAFUCKA.... YEAH!
Gaga is worst, cuz she's a she. Intolerant much? (stfu me)
Now non-bronies or the creators will be even more dissapoint in us. May Celestia have mercy on our souls.
You know what... Rainbow Dash is best porn pony. If you clop to Twilight Sparkle.... then my message is pure and simple, I might not know who you are, I don't know why you do what you do, if you are looking for something to clop to, I can tell you, I don't have clopping material, but what I do have, are a very particular set of links and pictures, links and pictures that I have acquired over a very long time of internet browsing, links and pictures that make me a nightmare for people like you, if you stop clopping to Twilight Sparkle now that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will spam you.

Twilight Sparkle best pony in all categories
Personally I think it would hurt the fandom if anything. If word got out that a celebrity was into pony r34 I think the media would sort of look over the celebrity and focus more on the amount of mature content is produced by the fandom. To anyone that didn't know about the fandom or doesn't know much about the fandom this would increase the negative view that people have on the brony community.
Also, I don't think MLP will ever pass something like Pokemon in terms of mature material produced. If MLP was around for as long as Pokemon will be around then I think it's possible. I think the reason why so much mature content is being created in compared to other r34 is because MLP is still new and fresh to people. You never know though, I've been wrong before.
~Have a good one.
... This is still really, really strangely interesting. Strange how MLP's become a porn powerhouse in it's own right.
i did not know Lady Gaga was a Brony. Seth Green, yeah. Andrew W.K.; ever since it got mentioned on Conan. but i did not see Lady Gaga as a brony. sorry, Pegasister.
Kinda scary how it has all snowballed across the scale this fast.
More disturbing facts!
Also, I didn't know Seth Green was a brony!

i like that picture a lot
Well, It really depends on WHO the celebrity is.
so... who's currently beating who's pants off?
COME ON GUYS! WE CAN GET TO FIRST I KNOW WE CAN! DRAW ALL THE PORN YOU CAN!
I think it has the potential to go either way. If a celebrity that has a lot of hate comes out and says something like that, a lot of hate will then be directed towards us as a, "See? This is why we don't like blahblahblah."
But if that celebrity has a lot of fans and is widely loved, then it could make people take pause and go, "I wonder why they like this. Maybe I should see it for myself and find out."
Just my opinion though.
338159What do you have against Twilight?
338170While you put up a valid point, both about the media and pokemon. True, celebrities tend to sometimes get a 'get out of jail free' card when it comes to stuff like mature pictures, but that's just some BS reason the media gives to cover the fact that they are HATERS! And also, I doubt MLP porn will pass Pokemon porn for one reason alone:
The Pokemon Company will not die. They will cling to anything in order to keep their franchise afloat, even if it includes seriously fucking with the actual series. As long as they continue to rub out more and more complete crap they call Pokemon, people will draw porn of it.
I don't mean that in a bady way, it's just that I think the Pokemon Company is getting really desperate when it comes to new ideas. I mean, the new games they're coming out with are just a revamped version of black and white. And the legendaries of the game are just fusions of the previous versions' legendaries. They are literally grasping for straws, and even though I've loved Pokemon ever since I was a kid, the series is dying. Slowly of lung cancer. And the Pokemon Company is providing it with cigarettes.
I'm not surprised that there is a lot of pony porn pictures on the internet (I'm just glad that I don't come upon them) considering that us bronies were forged, as Saberspark said in his documentary, in the fiery pits of 4chan. Where we waged war after war with waves after waves of pony porn pictures.
I just hope that in the next decade, the kids, who are the target demograph (did I say that right?), don't find these pictures that would ruin their pony filled childhood. It's just my opinion.
338159 >Rainbow Dash is best porn pony
Silly Prescott, that's not how you spell Twilight Sparkle! dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/Twilight_Sparkle_lolface.png
338770 I hear you on Pokemon going down the tubes slowly. Shame really.
~Have a good one.

This video seems highly appropriate for this discussion.
339924 *sniff* T_T What happened to you~
~Have a good one.
If you fap to Pokemon, you're either a pedophile, a beastiality person (Because Pokemon aren't intelligent unless it's a Meowth) or you like Team Rocket alot.
339721>>338770 She's just ugly.
338161 What's dat Ponies name again EH? When I look at her... I feel like she's just a whore.
338161 What's dat Ponies name again EH? When I look at her... I feel like she's just a whore.
I... feel so ashamed of the fandom right now....
I can tolrate clop-storys as long as they are well-written, but actual pony-porn-pics make me sick...
That's just so waaaayyyy beyond fucked up and in my opinion, it has nothing to do with being a fan of something...
A celebrity clopper? ... no thanks
339932Screw you, Twillight is best pony!
339924I would watch that video, but my laptop hates Youtube.
340104 WRONG, YOU ARE WRONG, WRONG, WRONG! I would smash Rainbow Dash.
Would smash everypony except for Twist and Twilight, because they have ugly mane cuts and faces.
340121Okay, while I agree with you on Twist, I DISAGREE on your view of Twilight. And if Twilight is so ugly, how come she's the one with the most rule 34 pictures? And don't say 'cause she's a slut, 'cause I don't care wether she is or not. Twilight is best pony, RD is second best. RD is coolest pony, but Twilight is best.
340125 Twilight isn't a slut... are you kidding? None of the Ponies are lusty unlike some Humans. Well, I still believe that Twilight's mane and personality ruin it all for me. She's so much smarter than me... too smart for her own good. Her mane reminds me of.... women with short hair.... eeewwwugh.
340147Okay, I don't see how her mane would remind you of women with short hair, but that's your own opinion. But what's wrong with brains?
340149 Oh, it looks like short hair because it looks like it was cut... so it looks like short hair! Oh nothing is wrong with her being smart, I just feel so inferior, then I thnk how powerful she is... and then well, I get a fucking boner. (Just kidding, that doesn't happen unless I talk about it.)
340154 That's what I thought her name was.... I look at her, and i'm like... smoking is bad m'kay.... so is being goth. BWAHAHA.
340240 HEH HEH HEH, I DON'T LIKE THAT GUYS ART.... NOT AT ALL.
...It never occurred to me that people would actually formulate those statistics, but I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. It's hella funny, though.
And hey, fan content is fan content IMO, so if we're producing it at a faster rate than the fanbases of already well-established franchises, then I suppose that's... good, right? I mean, that's the funny thing about rule 34: Plenty of people are offended by it, but if a franchise's characters are compelling enough for people to develop a sexual attraction to them, then isn't that, um, a... um... good sign? Doesn't it indicate that people really care about that series? Am I still making sense? Was I ever? Gah!
*Huddles in the corner*
*Turns around*
Uh, at any rate, I'll be expecting more updates on the situation!
*Goes back to huddling*

I'll update on the fifth of every month. Any predictions on how many porn pictures we'll have by December 5, 2012? That date is just five days shy of FIM's two year anniversary.
340164Go Twilight Sparkle!
Wow. I didn't know that some of the popular celebrities were bronies/pegasisters! I find this highly interesting. And where the fuck did Seth Green take that picture? Is there a My Little Pony land or something?
Andrew WK damn i never would have thought that would be. :) celebrity cloppers im okay with this, but who would have the balls to come out thats the real question because i know there out there somewhere.
340828
Shoot, that's a rather difficult prediction to make at the moment. I think I'll have to wait another month to get a sense of the average monthly rate of image production. With just this one set of numbers, I'm not sure if this is a massive spike in new images, or if it's just a few hundred more than last month.
339932 >Team Rocket alot
If I were an artist, I would consider drawing a Team Rocket alot. Here, have a Discord alot:

... My intention was not to insult anybody.
I said I TOLERATE clop when reading it, not that I'm liking it while hating ponyporn.
Also this is just my opinion, you don't have to give a * about it.
Clop to whatever you want, I just think that all this porn makes the community look worse then it is... but again, this is just me.
Hm... so this is completely "natural"... weeeellll... ok...
Oh, and I think it's a bit unfair to call me "stupid" for hating on ponyporn...
345636 >all this porn makes the community look worse then it is
Sure, it looks bad to morons. Do we care about morons?
345915 >They would think about things on a logical and emotional level.
Reminds me of me
>Best examples would be on these fics
Don't forget about Momma Fluttershy! dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/Fluttershy_lolface.png

I get your point and again, I'm sorry if I hurt anybody's feelings.
I'm not trying to change people or how they think, and usually I would have kept my opinion for myself, but this was the author's topic/ question.
Thanks for reacting as polite as you did and not simply starting a shitstorm.
I shoud have chosen my words more wisely, being as blunt about it as I was doesn't help anybody.
346779
Well, you are a good example of how to NOT handle criticism...
your second comment was as useless as the first one.
We got your point, you can stop
346874 >your second comment was as useless as the first one
Are you implying that I ever post things that are not useless?

Never change, R34 community.

To be fair, I'm sure alot of kids who rediscover old series through porn after they grow up would probably feel nostalgic about finding it. Then fap to it since they were on that porn site for a reason.
If I ever make it anywhere in the music industry (upcoming high school senior songwriter with a band/duo project), I'd probably be the first. XD
The only question is, who would ever admit to something like that? I understand that some celebrities like the ones you mentioned are totally comfortable with revealing what gets their rocks off, but I believe a thing like a person's fetish should only be known to that person and whoever their partner is. If a celebrity ends up being a clopper, good for them, I guess, but it's not information anyone really needed to know.
Also, I have a more-than-platonic crush on Twilight Sparkle, so I don't care if she's "ugly", I freaking love her!
