Why has everyone gotten it into their heads that half of the characters are dykes?

[up]I think it is the natural reaction from shippers to a show where most of the recurring characters are females who arent in relationships.

It's probably because shipping is rather widespread (although not everyone takes it so notoriously serious, like me) and the cast is mostly female. The mane cast even completely.

In my case, I'm also a Yuri Fan, so it's just natural.

[up] I don't understand shipping either , I first met Yuris when I watched Madoka.Still I really can't understand what's so fun on pairing characters.

I prefer Canon any day.

Ugh, how does this keep happening?! Well, anyway, it's a little bit rushed, but I managed to finish it with the theme and a stupid amount of panels. If it wasn't for the theme being in the last panel, dividing this up probably would have been in my best interest. :/

More Twilight mayhem!

Eh. Pretty much the only lesbian shipping I'm willing to acknowledge (for now) is Lyra and Bon-Bon.
But apart, all we are is just a pile of mush and some crumbly dry mess...

For some reason I really like Lyra but Bon-Bon's existence doesn't seem to register with me.

Which is weird because I'm pretty sure she actually talked in the show whereas I can'ot recall Lyra doing so.
Because "for the lulz" is a perfectly good reason to do something.

I just watched "Look Before You Sleep" again. For some reason it just struck me how oblivious Twilight was during the tree sequence.

Twilight can be remarkably dumb sometimes.

That was the second episode I ever watched. Twilight was pretty cute there in her obliviousness. Although it was very weird too.

I mean, this perception failure seems rather OOC for her.

A failure of the public school system, I guess.

Personally, they all strike me as affectionate, but straight. They might do gay just to experiment, but no more than that.

I really do hope the series ends with an episode about Twilight Sparkle's marriage though.

EDIT: That being said, I actually did recently have an idea for a TwiPie fanfic. It involved Twilight realizing her feelings and then travelling to an Equestrian version of the cursed springs of Jusenkyo in order to make the relationship work. Incidentally this would make a neat fanon explanation for genderflipped ponies.

And I hope that there won't be any form of romance. No, not even lesbian. I just don't think that it fits to the series.

[up][up][up]I dunno about it being ooc. She's shown herself to be preeeety oblivious more than once. And you could write it down to being half asleep, in addition to a new social experience - and let's remember, Twilight is scoially retarded.

To me, it just seems like a thing that Twilight's response to stress is being out of touch with reality. She doesn't get manic or mad or depressed, but the things she says just stop making sense relative to the situation.

Parasprites ate half the town, and the princess is a minute away? We'll just build a new one!

Tree branch in her bedroom? Yes, this must be part of a (slightly less than) normal slumber party experience!

Though the gala fiasco was an exception. There, she just blabbered incoherently.

[up]I read a pshycologal analysis of the ponies on EQD and I say that would make sense

Don't forget her schools test she was so desperate she stopped using her horn

when fluttersy kidnapped Filomena she tough that Celestia would vanish her and Fluttershy of equestria

She even tried to directly charge towards both nighmare moon and a hydra

[up]To be fair, her charging at Nightmare Moon was a ruse. She meant to teleport the whole time. Least that's how I understood it.

All those other times, seem like just fear or desperation to me. Like most people, Twilight really doesn't know how to handle it when things don't go her way.

Personally, I don't care about that "message" crap, but then again, as I said I'm not interested in canon romance in FIM anyway.

Canon-wise, I don't view any pony as gay. But I don't view them as straight or bi either.

useless musings: Ponies (as well as other sapients) only wear extensive clothes for show, when there is a celebration of some kind. Otherwise, they just wear a few accessories (and anything practical).

So, if confronted with humans, our constant multiple layers of clothing would confuse people: "Wait, are they dressed up all the time? Why?" And on that hypothetical My Little Human show, one group would try to reason: "Well, it seems they have no fur, so it must be so they have protection against the elements..." And they would immediatelly get the answer: "Duh, it's just so they can sell more outfits for the dolls to little fillies!"

I always sort of thought, since clothing is solely for decoration, wearing clothing would be considered enticing, as far as ponies go. Sort of the opposite of the way we view it, more clothes = more scandalous, in pony eyes. Like Trolls, in Discworld.
