Are bronies invading the forum?

[MasterNetra]

Yeah, I don't get that, either. And then it's always presented as crossing gender barriers, as if that was the same thing. It's like there's this weird, unstated equivalence between the two that's being drawn.

Yea, and the whole man points/card/whatever stuff sounds like a invention by college duds in/from a frat house.

I'm curious though as to how this gender categorization of stuff started.

Longer, actually - it's evident in all higher apes.

Edit: But yeah, even Brony is painfully frattish.

[MadmanRB]

Well I was a linux user before being a Brony so...

[KiwiNZ]

words fail me

I have no problem with bromies.

Should Ubuntu Forums really accept their pony overlords?

Would I be considered a higher ape?

[QIII]

I prefer the common equus asinus africanus (since I can't use a common term for them - "a" followed by "ss" -- without it getting replaced by three stars, I have to use the scientific one) or "donkey" (which, strangely, does not get replaced by six stars) to a cartoon pony.

So, when my wife is angry with me, do you think she says "You equus asinus africanus!"? Of course not. She uses the three letter version!

Yeah, I thought that phrase was a thing to exclude gibbons. It's apparently just not a thing (the phrase I meant is great apes) and there are apparently monkeys that show a gender split between "hunter" and "nurturer" inclinations, anyway, so it's a moot point. I'm guessing that KiwiNZ was referring to specialized "labor" roles, hunting and gathering, for which his figure sounds rightish without looking it up.
