With no other options left, Applejack and Dash turn to Rarity to help teach the girls some manners. Surely Ponyville's most prim and proper mare will be able to help?
Lovely new chapter. My favorite part is Bloom and Sweetie getting to know each other, they're just too cute.
How can Applejack and Rainbow Dash be ok with Scootaloo or Apple Bloom wearing a bridle? Is it not as big of a deal as I think it is? They just trust Rarity that much?
9725009 Well, as Rarity said, ponies mainly wear them for decoration. Plus, if it's to keep them from swearing, I'm sure Applejack and Rainbow Dash won't see a problem with it.
9725115 You're right, somehow I missed that passage. Looking back on it,
“Of course, ponies today still wear bridles. Sometimes as strictly decoration, or for fun in the bedroom.”
I'm still not sold on such an accessory being appropriate for children. It seems to me that bridles today are toys mostly intended for sexual use, sometimes doubling as fashion accessories with a strong sexual connotation. The time in which they were used as an educational tool are long gone, it wouldn't surprise me to find out that such an use today is frowned upon. Furthermore, like the butt plugs, bridles may get uncomfortable if wore for long periods like Rarity encourages.
I must take notice that very little has been said about bridles in this story so far, and I'm likely biased by what I've read elsewhere. A lot will likely get cleared next chapter.
Rainbow Dash and Applejack have shown clear interest in going through with Rarity's lessons
“All ah know, is my sis tanned my flank last night when ah tried to get out of going back. She told me this was happenin’ whether ah liked it or not.” Apple Bloom said softly.
“That’s nothing. Dash told me she was sending me to some weird camp near Los Pegasus if I tried to get out of it again. She told me it got shut down for a few months for being too rough on the fillies there…”
They also are aware of the long-term benefits her lessons will have on the young ones. I doubt that they are aware of her methods and of their short-term side effects.
Maybe I'm overthinking this, but I'm excited for what light next chapter will shine on this topic

I kind of figured that was the whole point of them being used in this story. And I'm still hopeful that this story will end in an orgy between the CMC and their big sisters.

I'm strictly going off the show. We can see bridles on display with some of Raritys mannequins in episodes. The pony visitors from Saddle Arabia wore bridles. Cant remember the game, but a Hasbro branded game had promotional art featuring the mane 6 in bridles. There were some points in the show the mane 6 wore bridles but they were mostly tongue in cheek gags.
So my take is that its probably super uncommon and very much a relic of the past. Ponies would see it like wearing a top hat around town. It would definitely be seen as odd on children.
It's probably very embarrassing but not necessarily sexual to most.
My initial impression was off, now I have a better understanding of what bridles mean in this universe and of what they can mean with strict regard to the show.
Thanks again for taking the time to explain me this detail
I would also add the bridles in this story are purposely designed for sex play, as they have rubber gags on the bit. Of course, you wouldn't be able to easily tell that just looking at them. The filly wearing them would have to show you, or you would have to know some other way.
A normal bridle a pony would actually want to wear to a fancy shindig of some sort wouldn't have a gag in it to prevent talking. I would imagine the bit would be as unobtrusive as possible so the wearer could still speak normally.

So basically their sisters want them broken.

We'll be seeing this next chapter. I plan to get Dash and Applejack more involved, even though I'm bad at writing apple horse dialect.

I really hope that Rarity puts Applejack and Rainbow Dash in those bridles later for swearing in front of the fillies.
I wonder who will these 3 want as their mate?
