My Little Pony

Something interesting and funny has recently come to my attention. Do you remember the show "My Little Pony"? I never watched it personally, at least not until recently. My youngest daughter shared a clip with me.

Did you know that, by far, the demographic that it is most popular with is 18-35 year old guys? I was surprised! They outrank 13-17 year old girls. As I understand it, there is even a nickname for the male fans: Bronies.

I wonder what there is about those ponies that has the guys in that age range all keyed up?

    How cute. :) I never had MLP anything, but I'm a zillion years older than you anyway. haha

    My youngest daughter showed me a clip of the show where one of the ponies (and, actually, I think it was a unicorn) was being held against her will by some bad guys and she talked them to death. It was so funny, because my little gal can be a talker, too. :)

    Thanks for commenting. I hope that you have a great evening!
