    You can change. You can.
    Just because it can be enjoyed by an older/male demographic doesn't mean it's not a girls show...

    "In a jokey fashion, would you automatically understand that? "

    What I want to know is how you say that in a serious fashion.

    "But when a show like this has such a strong following in older/male
    demographics, I'm not sure how much you can really say it failed at
    creating a show that can be enjoyed by people other than little girls."

    I'd say that would count as objective proof to its family show status.

    Just because older males gush over it doesn't mean only older males gush over it. I like it just as much as little girls do. I also don't have to wear the title of brony to make myself comfortable with it. I can even like it at work and nobody would have a problem with it.

    Till shade is gone, till water is gone, into the Shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath, to spit in Sightblinder’s eye on the last Day.
    "Just because older males gush over it doesn't mean only older males gush over it."

    This.  I would say that it's definitely a girl's show.  But it's a girl's show that presents itself in such a way as to make it appealing for people outside that one demographic.

    You're missing the point...>_>

    ^ I can agree with that, actually.

    If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    This is one of those cases where it is a little kids' show, but it's been picked up by a periphery demographic.

    And you can't really say how many adult males watch it unless you actually survey this. People on the internet do- but then, people on the internet love Homestuck, which is very unknown in real life.

    @Cygan:But what I said has nothing to do with how many adult males watch it, just with the fact that some do.

    Coming out of lurk mode to say that this:

    "That's about it before Gelzo banned me from his stream."

    never happened.

    I wouldn't say it's really unkown so much as it is not universal as most media juggernauts. But it is a juggernaut.

    I wasn't responding to you, though, INUH ;~;

    I was saying that it's not a good idea to judge how many adult males enjoy the show by how many people talk about it on the 'net.

    You might also consider how many people just tolerate it, rather than actively liking it, for their kids' sake.

    It is intended as a family show, and is watched by people of all ages. What more is needed than that?

    Ah. My bad.

    Well, that's probably the last indication for the night that I need to sleep. Night, everyone.

    Proof that many people of all ages actively enjoy the show. NOT taken from the net.

    Again, just because it is enjoyed by X and intended as Y doesn't stop it from being Z.

    then how come I couldn't get back onto it?

    Okay, one more post. When talking about the intentions behind the show, you have to consider that more than one mind was involved in its creation.

    Right, now I'm going to bed.

    show you've created for little girls is obsessed over by sexually repressed manchildren

    I immediately thought of magical girls, particularly the ones in rather revealing outfits.

    Then I thought of the porn that gets made of them.

    I think fyre-flye may be thinking a little too innocently when the person said that males can be interested in "girl" things as well.

    ^^^I'm not sure. I'm going to check it again.


    Try it again, and be specific about the problem.

    Well, someone by the handle of Tara Strong is typing there. I assumed it was you.
  • VorpyVorpy
    ☭Unstoppable Sex Goddess☭
    Yup. It be me.
  • Central AvenueCentral Avenue
    Fuck, I was hoping it was the real Tara Strong.

    Or wait, maybe Vorpy is the real Tara Strong!

    Yeah, I'm going with that, since it's coolest.

    Logic criteria + facts behind the show's conception - Author's interpretation - Fandom interpretation + academic/critical thinking = Z.
