Man... · 1:52am Sep 6th, 2012
My mom found out about my brony status and is accusing me of being gay. -_- Lovely. I love being from a old fashioned Southern Conservative family.

Don't feel bad, I get the same thing from my family. I actually got before I was a brony. Why is that men must be devoid of any feelings to be seen as strait?
339276 No idea. But I did get a point in. It's not the worst thing I've ever been involved in.
Don't worry we shall over come.
339325 Ugh. She just refuses to listen to the fact that we're like... actually a fairly large community. We have celebrities and crap.
Have you tried to show her anything that the community's done? Like the charity work, games, animation and crap? Also I hope your not catching a bunch of flak.....that would be really bad.... I do hope everything will turn out well for you
Oh and if you don't mind me asking how did she find out anyways?
339419 My youngest brother probably told her. And no, she's too stubborn for me to even attempt to prove her wrong. -_-
does she read twilight or 50 shades of grey? or anything else that is mocked via internets?
on the other hoof i know a guy from trotcon who was in the same boat, if you got to point out other stuff you do... are you into D&D- say its a nerd thing, anime?- fandom, ruff work/school days?- then its a funny show with clean humor that brightens your day.
when my family found out my mom and sister were confused, my dad didn't acted like it was a new thing like doctor who or avatar. it helps that i neat him in his own fantasy football league, am a better shooter than him with his .357 magnum revolver and ask for a beer every now and then
Just don't let it get to you
339478 i'm not. This isn't the first thing she's blown out of proportion. Shoulda seen her reaction when she discovered I watched anime. -_-

Damn that....sucks I feel sorry for you man I hope it'll get better
339502 ah, so it seems like its more of a she's going overboard rather than old traditions kinda thing,
I know that feel, i know that feel all to well... when i was learning to drive 5 years ago my mother grabbed the steering wheel almost causing us to crash, now that my sisters driving she's doing much the same and we all just go then "stop! you're making it worse!"
339533 Nothing a proper shovel blow to the back of the head won't fix.
339544 Bahaha. Oh yeah, she's a bit weird like that, too.
339558 let me play you the song of our people
Who's more gay: The man who watches big, masculine action man flex his muscles and accomplish heroic feats, or the man who watches female ponies?
I'll admit, there's something wrong with my pony-liking, but it DEFINITELY does not fall into the "gay" category.
339684 giggity.
340202 I don't think anything wrong's with it. It only feels wrong because we don't want to feel ostracized by the people we love. But I mean hell, there ain't nothin in the Bible that says I can't like cartoon horses. Not even in the red words, and thems the important ones.
I hear ya there.
341484 Some things i'm trying to figure out is how people of ALL ages watch 'keeping up with the kardashians', 'Swamp People', and 'American idol' but ALWAYS have some downwards critique about males watching a show about colorful Ponies that actually CARE about others.
What the heck is going on here?
