Has anyone pointed out yet that for a story filled with earth pony hating antagonists, an earth pony princess coronation would be one hell of an event to crash?
He he. Poor Sentinel. Betrayed by his own wings again.
[mandatory "holy shit, 700 is almost here” comment goes here ]
The hype is REAL!!!!!!
I sure fuckng hope that the colts of the dance will realize that they have, not so much a responsibility as a fucking OBLIGATION, to make sure that not a single filly leaves this coranation without having danced at least once.
I sure as hell Bucky has some cleverness planned for it, like a cadance surge or something.

Messing with Bucky on his home turf, with Celestia present, and an army of golems that are trained to take on unicorns... that's a party waiting to happen.
Not to mention that several interesting beings are also present.
Haefer Aestus likes earth ponies...

This becomes a mathematics issue. Too many fillies, not enough colts. Dinky's already aware of the problem, which is why she wants no part of it. She's become aware that there is a major issue in society.
6070479 Yeah, a alicorn-powered magical-enhanced love surge in the middle of already hyper-excited teenage colts and fillies...there is no way that can go wrong, right ?
coff coff coff ORGY coff coff coff...
But if Bucky planned something more romantic that would be very clever from him. Unicorn level of cleverness.
In a less fun note...Dinky is really digging down the depression pity...PTSD settling in hard or she is just too smart for her own good ? I sense another patient for Dr. Bazinga...Gazebo...Mabowa...errrr, whatever !
6070529
Doctor Mawu.
And no, it isn't about pity or depression. Think of it more as a frustrated child trying to make a very adult statement but not knowing how to say it, so they fall back on very childish methods. Like... going to their room.

*thwap* is so much more satisfying than *pompf*
I love what Pinkie did, and Bucky's all like:

Sounds more like a perfect setup. With your history I've learned to expect shit like this happening regardless of how silly it seems. The enemy has proved themselves to be ballsy and foolish before.
Maybe the enemy is already there. Who knows. Maybe they don't want to win. Maybe they just want to make a statement.

From fate from choice from destiny and from persnickety amorous women. Better?

Imagine the difficulty of finding another gay stallion in a society where there is a shortage of males.
Woo... downvoted for pointing out a statistical issue. Somebody hates science.
6071027
THIS. ALL OF THIS.
Well, I picked a heck of a time to fall behind on this story. Still, I'm glad I caught up in time for chapter 700... assuming it wasn't posted as I was catching up.
In any case, looking forward to more. And it's nice to see Pinkie back to her inexplicable self.

By that logic there would be fewer gay stallions who are not gay by choice. But also likely to be more bisexual stallions in genetic compensation, yet so far all the ones we've seen are pretty much straight to a fault.
Though being gay or bisexual would actually be shouted down in their society, since that'd be two males spending ANY amount of sexual time together that some selfishly needy mare could have had. Thus my point that stallions are essentially a resource in Equestria rather than much of anything else. In which case Equestria doesn't need feminism, but rather... masculinism. You don't need feminism when females are more than 70% of the population and dominant, both politically and socially.

I think I'm interpreting "bear the burdens socially" differently than you said it, but can't see how you meant it. Men bear a lot of burdens in our society, even today. They are expected to work no matter what their preference is, are given (as far as I can see) less sympathy for failure, and are judged more harshly. I see that as bearing the burdens socially.
... Hm... out of the male pony protagonists we know, which ones do we know are actually willful go-getters?
Bucky is submissive, Rising Star is submissive, Sentinel is submissive, Flash is submissive, Filthy Rich was submissive, Thunderlane is submissive, Silver Shill is submissive. Not that all of them are complete pushovers but... all in all, they cow to an assertive female pretty quick.
Way back in the Shetlands Isle arc... I was all up in arms about the gender disparity, and I've, since then, wanted to comment on the broad trend... The pony (or pony raised. I see you there, Spike, too afraid to make his desire to be family to Twilight known before, and bashful-seeming when asking to join the LoEEP now) males are still very submissive characters, pretty much across the board.
The ones that aren't are the Sombras and Night Stallions, the villains.

Males still have something females need, and this is the how and the why of how the noble houses, which were male dominated, stayed in power.
Females are nothing if they can't make offspring. A male refuses, a matriarch is all but done for. A matriarch refuses, the male just goes off and has a few bastard offspring, which inherit their father's wealth, leaving all the females in the family in the lurch. So it is in the female's best interest to be submissive, at least in the noble houses, which is part of how everything got turned upside down. The noble houses were basically masculism, but done in the worst way possible. Males seized power and held it. By getting rid of herds, males kept themselves in power. It became a one on one fight for power instead of one male fighting a half a dozen females for what he wants to do. Monogamy put the males and females on even footing. With so many females and so few males, females wanting to carry on their proud noble bloodlines had to submit and do everything that the males dictated, because if they didn't, the males would just keep looking until they found a submissive female that would.
It is horrible and fucked up.
Applebloom's in on the Tourmaline secret right? If not, one look at her with her crown on has the potential to go very wrong...

And if they didn't do that, they would continue to be the submissive ones. You can't tell me that a matriarch was helpless if the male didn't get his way. That's like saying a mare's never raped a stallion before, which is ludicrous. Even if the male was sexually compliant, his life would still be effectively dictated by the mares keeping him. The wants and needs of half a dozen or more leaves no time for your own and I know this by experience, especially when it's something passed down in society for many years.
It's fucked up on both sides, which is why going back to just female-dominated herds and thinking that social progress is wrong and is something Dinky needs to get figured out. There's no real equality if you just say 'the biological prerogative is correct and we messed it up with our monogamy'. because that's suffocating one gender. Just because they get sex out of it doesn't mean that makes it okay. She needs some perspective here. Preferably someone other than Berry or Bucky, the former being a staunch feminist and the latter liking where he is. Talking to someone who finds this to be unfair would give her something she could work with, try to figure out a happy medium.
I mean, I assume she's going to be a force of social change in the future.
6071569
She ends up a monogamist.
6071572
But, from what I can tell, not with a pony from the three tribes.

I swear for Celestia, if a jagged horn unicorn appears on that episode, I´ll have a heartattack...they´re confirming pretty much 99% of the fandom already !!!!!
The problem here, the real problem is you can't deny biology in the end. It has been shown repeatedly that nature has ways to nudge the game when there is a sexual imbalance. Even to the point of some critters being able to change sex if stuck in a same sex environment. It has been shown that if the population is skewed in one way or the other toward one sex for a long period of time, births of the outnumbered sex increase...... this is, of course, in species where something like a 1:1 ratio is considered desirable. However, in this case, nature is set up for something like 1:5. It stands to reason that if you force ponies into an unnatural state of monogamy that nature will respond by increasing the number of female births, thus making the inbalance worse.
Nature tries to fix the problem.
Why do I suddenly have this terrible foreboding feeling?
New Princess to be crowned . . . Check.
All important figures to be present . . . Check.
Really good time for an assassination ? ? ? FUUUUUUUU----
Will someone please give me a newspaper? Preferrably rolled up.
Did I not call it? Did I not call it? Mother fucking called it~ Dammit Dinky, talk with your overly understanding parents! Like seriously... how do you take decent conversation with your parents for granted? I'd kill... literally slaughter all of you to have a deep conversation with my mother without God getting mentioned a thousand times. It's such blind devotion too. It's disgusting. Then she'll tell me, don't let another enforce their opinions on you, always look for the facts... also, believe in Jesus or your ass is kicked out. -.-
Oh shite, i wanna see that.
I wonder what Celestia would think about Harper telling Luna that she should zap "Auntie Celery" >=)
Typo typo?
The three of you look smashing,” Bon Bon said in what could only be described as a mother's voice. She looked at Barley, Luna, Sentinel and Piña. As she did so, she felt her barrel swell with pride.
Says"three of you" but there is 4 that she is looking at
6070500 and shaggy ones if I am not mistaken
Legend has it, that on that day, the coronation was assaulted by a thunderous snap of a thousand young pegasus wings standing at attention at the same time... The sound was so thunderous it managed to shatter a couple windows from air pressure alone.
