 Breaking Brony
Back in the 80′s, the “My Little Pony” franchise was aimed specifically at girls, both in toy lines and animated adventures. Flash forward to this space year 2012… And MLP is still deliberately marketed and designed with pre-teen girls in mind. Yet somehow, for reasons unknown, fat neckbeards have taken to the show like they do to Naruto and Final Fantasy. In the face of well-deserved ridicule and mockery by the rest of the Internet at large, more and more sheltered young men are proclaiming themselves to be “Bronies,” admitting their love for the recent animated series spawned by the MLP franchise. I’m pretty sure the whole fad started off with goons ironically quoting it and putting down 5 dollars for pony avatars on the Something Awful forums, but I’ve heard people tell me it started off un-ironically on 4chan’s /co/. The fact of the matter is, it doesn’t really matter how or where it started: What’s important to note (for the purpose of this article) is that once Bronies made it to deviantART, we were all doomed to deal with some of the worst art to hit the web in a long time.
MLP fan art ranges from “pure shit” to “pure horror.” As far as the percentages are concerned, there seems to be an even split between “innocent” and pure pony porn. To MLP’s credit, this is a better balance than most franchises featuring anthropomorphic creatures seem to strike. Case in point; the Star Fox franchise, which seems to inspire roughly 9 pornographic pieces of fan art for every 1 worksafe image. On the other hand, the fact that MLP still inspires any amount of porn is goddamn terrifying. It’s not often we include warnings in articles here on DCQC, but I feel one is necessary for this article. For the purpose of getting across how awful fans of MLP are – not only as artists, but as human beings in general - we’ll be showing illustrated pony porn in this article. So, if looking at drawn animal porn upsets you - WHICH IT FUCKING SHOULD - you should probably stop reading now.
Fluttershy by ~PyruvateBelieve it or not, I’m actually easing you into this article with this deviation. I like to think that light bondage ranks fairly low in the rankings for unorthodox fetishes. I mean, bondage is child’s play when stacked up against shit like vore – which we will also be touching upon later on in this article. Hey, speaking of children, I feel like I should reiterate the point that MLP is a cartoon show marketed towards children. Also, from what I understand, the characters in the show are children / teenagers as well? (NOTE TO SELF: File this article under the “Pedophilia” category.) I think might understand how the artist correlated ball-gags with MLP. You see, “toys” are a common slang term for sexual aids. And, as I mentioned earlier, the MLP brand began as a toy line. See the connection? Pyruvate sure did! And the world is a worse place for it. Credit where credit is due: The artist is able to match the show’s art style fairly close. Which, to be fair, isn’t all that difficult. The problem is, this makes it very easy for impressionable children to accidentally stumble upon this particular submission. With a title and description simply citing the character’s name, and the failure on the artist’s part to tag the image as “Explicit,” it’s not difficult to imagine a scenario where a child might be looking for Fluttershy fan art on deviantART, and unwittingly click on the thumbnail without noticing the fact that their favorite pony is in prime position to be raped. For a fandom centered around friendliness and tolerance, Bronies sure don’t seem to give a shit about corrupting younger fans of the show!
Those condoms won’t save you by ~thebunnydenFirst things first: What is the title of this piece meant to imply? That the pony pictured has a sexually transmitted disease so contagious that it doesn’t even require fluid transfer in order for her partner to contract it? Perhaps something airborne? If this is the case, posing seductively and inviting people to have sex with her is incredibly reckless (Assuming, of course, she is aware she has a STD). Also, if “those condoms won’t save you,” why is she holding three of them? I understand that it might be one for each hole: My point is that it’s deceptive to offer them if you’re going to contract this apparently unstoppable, presumably un-curable disease. Or maybe the odd title is the result of some mistranslation from Italian – the artist’s native language – to English.
Well, that description was certainly enlightening! Apparently, the decision to submit this as lineart was based solely on the artist’s own laziness, and unwillingness to bother inking the damn thing. Bear in mind that this is supposedly a gift for another user: A show of gratitude or admiration. And yet, the artist couldn’t even be bothered to finish it? Shows how much he cares for “taliesinthedragoon!” On that subject, I’ve always been sort of curious about artists who are commissioned / compelled to draw porn for their fans. It always struck me as a sort of odd, awkward gesture. It’s sort of like saying, “Hey, you and I have been friends online for a long time, so I decided to draw a picture of a naked horse for you. Do with it what you will! By which I mean, masturbate furiously to it.” I suppose you’ll be wanting me to critique the picture itself. What do you want me to say? It’s not drawn badly: It’s just terrifying to know that someone thought of the idea of drawing a horse with huge tits posing provocatively, and then committed that same idea to paper. The artist obviously has a somewhat unique style, and an adequate of anatomy. There’s not much to say other than that. … Well, maybe there’s a few things. I’m not sure if the weird lump beneath the pony’s crotch is some sort of weird censorship thing, or maybe some sort of horrible hidden penis or something. The way the horn seems to blend in to the forehead is kind of weird, in the same way that the areola isn’t drawn as a complete circle on her breast. I’m fairly certain these last two issues were meant to be resolved when the picture was fully colored. The problem is, the artist never got around to that. I’m sure he’ll eventually submit a fully inked version at some point in the near future. Maybe he’ll even grace us with a 3rd edition with some hideous filter effects layered on for good measure, God willing!
SxRD: Not So Fast Now… by ~SammiTheHedgieWhat’s a DCQC article without a Sonic the Hedgehog crossover or a vore picture? I figured I might as well kill two birds with one stone with this one. Or should I say… TWO PONIES? ahahahahaha oh god i am a comic genius. I was ready to share my comedic wit with SammiTheHedgie via a comment on her submission, but was disappointed to find that she had disabled comments like a spineless coward after having received a few mean messages from the dA meanies! As she elaborates in the submission’s description:
So, there you have it, you fucking asshole trolls: Because you didn’t get the punchline in this obviously satirical and not-at-all fetishistic piece of art, Sammi had no choice but to disable the comments. I mean, it’s not her fault you’re all “butthurt” about the picture – an overused term which totally doesn’t describe Sammi’s own reaction to the situation. She clearly doesn’t give two shits about your opinions… As made evident by the fact that she disabled the option for anybody to submit to her their opinions. I see nothing hypocritical in her explanation for her decision, and nothing amusing about her handling of the situation. That being said, the only fault I could find in her explanation is her declaration that it is no longer possible to “baww at her anymore,” which I will prove wrong by complaining about the quality of her picture using this article. Markers and crayons are for children. I can never get over how unprofessional / unfitting they are when used for illustrations meant to be posted online. I guess the fact that both MLP and Sonic are series intended for children might justify the use of amateur tools. But all that means is that the picture itself is of an amateur quality. Many of the outlines are jagged / extend too far, while the coloring frequently escapes outside the lines. There’s something odd about the way that Rainbow Dash’s arms bend, with her forearms seeming to be double the length of her upper arm. If the “X-Ray” frame is supposed to be exact size, it looks as if Sonic is slightly too big to fit in the bulge depicted. Either that, or Sonic is far smaller than Rainbow Dash, which I imagine would complicate the idea of a pairing between the two (Which Sammi comes out in support of in the description). If I had to point out one feature, it would be the excessive amount of “cartoon emoting” by Sonic. Not only does he have a sour look on his face: He’s also blushing, has a huge anime sweat-bead pouring down his face, a bright red vein on the side of his head, AND an ellipsis inside a speech bubble! All we’re missing is the steam coming out of his ears. But that would burn the inside of Rainbow Dash’s stomach, which Sonic obviously wouldn’t do to her. After all, in Sammi’s mind, these two are ~~in love~~.
Special Treatment by ~NostalgiaGamerJSNow we’re in the thick of it! I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that Lauren Faust probably didn’t envision her fans envisioning her characters in these kind of scenarios. Then again, she probably didn’t imagine her fans drawing up Powerpuff Girls porn either. But enough about how out of place porn should be in a fandom like this: Let’s talk about anatomy. Our would-be pornographer doesn’t seem to have a good grasp of it. I get a weird “Pico’s School” vibe from how short and stubby the hind legs are relative to the arms. Not to mention, how the arms seem to curve impossibly smoothly, without any sort of bending at the joint. These issues are compounded by the fact that the picture is completely flat, lacking any sort of depth whatsoever. For example, with the mares, you can only see the one hind leg facing towards the viewer, completely and conveniently hiding the leg behind them. If there’s any one genre of art that absolutely needs to pop out, it’s porn. How else are you supposed to get a sense of how large the stallion’s gigantic, throbbing cock is, before it shoots salty semen all over oh wait I am getting way too descriptive about this the readers might begin to suspect that I’m a disgusting fu… Wait, what was I talking about again? Oh, right: Flat characters look like fucking garbage. The plain black background probably doesn’t help the situation at all. Then again, a detailed one probably wouldn’t fix anything either, would it? After all, we’re dealing with an artist so incompetent, they can’t even make their text readable. How the fuck do you fuck up brightly colored lettering on a pure black background? By adding a completely unnecessary gradient to them, apparently. One more question that needs answering: Is Twilight Sparkle choking the dude horse? Is this supposed to be some erotic asphyxiation bullshit going on? Jesus Christ: I don’t even want to touch this shit with a six-foot pole. Or even a six-foot, red-hot horse cock, all lubed up and ready for OH GOD WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME Well, that’s about as much as I can take. It’s seriously exhausting to look at some of this shit; like a constant drain on my psyché.
There’s no denying the crossover between Bronies and furries. The fascination of grown men in the series doesn’t have anything to do with the supposed “comedy for all audiences”: It’s their attraction to the characters, whether it’s sexual or otherwise (But mostly sexual). Bronies watch the show because they relate to or admire the characters. It’s why they buy the figures – and consequently, why Hasbro is making a fucking killing selling figures. And if you obsess over something… ANYTHING long enough, your mind eventually goes to that dark place imagining the sexual implications of it. The primary problem with Bronies is their unwarranted pride in their fandom. In the same way that “Aspergian Pride” or being proud of any sort of mental defect is ridiculous, so is being proud to be a social outcast. That’s really what being a member of the fandom boils down to: Camaraderie in being oddities. It’s why many fans relate to the Fluttershy character and her social awkwardness. A story that sticks out in my mind I read a few months back, when fellow contributor Lmte showed me a thread on “PonyChan” where a Brony told a sob story about meeting his father for the first time in years for dinner, with the night ending in a shouting match between the two. While he sat sobbing in his car, the Brony spoke of squeezing his Fluttershy plushie in his hand to calm himself. If that isn’t the very definition of “pathetic,” I don’t know what is. And yet, the poster’s fellow Bronies all came to support him, and to enable his literally child-like behavior. Which leads us to the second biggest problem with Bronies: Their obliviousness of the fact that they share this fandom with children. These people seriously forget that on the same imageboards and art submission services they are posting pony porn, there are innocent children looking for desktop wallpapers of Rarity doing some horse shit or something. And in the search for that – as I theorized before – it would not be difficult for an impressionable youth to stumble upon something like one today’s submissions. That’s kind of fucked up, isn’t it? So Bronies; go ahead and dismiss this entire article by posting “I’m going to love and tolerate the shit out of you!!!,” or whatever other dumb bullshit you lot like to spew. Keep trying to kill detractors with kindness, or ignoring the claims made against you. Keep on exposing children to cartoon porn, the same way Sonic fans and Star Fox fans and every other furry fandom inadvertently does. Luckily for you guys, you have some highly reputable representatives maintaining your public image. Especially here on dear old deviantART.com. 42 Responses to “Breaking Brony”Leave a Reply |

What an entertaining read. I also appreciate you using my art here. At least amongst your belligerent ignorance and misinformed accusations, you were able to give SOME constructive criticism about my art, which is always appreciated.
This article is the equivalent of a high-school student picking on the “nerds”. Sadly I wish I could say it was written with the grammatical skills of a high-school student, but that would would be overly generous.
This also seems to share semblance with the government trying to “protect” children from internet pornography by censoring all pornographic material. It’s just a bigoted way for you to dismiss and get rid of everything that you don’t like. Artistic expression can come in all forms, whether explicit or not, and of high quality, or not. Hell, I never claimed to be a good artist, sometimes drawing for the fun of it is all that count.
In conclusion, this is a poorly written, biased, misinformed article that is trying to thinly veil the personal hatred the author has towards the content in question by substituting false premises and using poor benchmarks. The only thing you’re breaking Habermann is your journalistic integrity. Nothing else.
Hey, you know deviantArt doesn’t allow porn right?
So, you’re telling me that the Maturity Filter on DeviantArt, which let me remind you, is a required field that you specify before you upload ANY art, was put there just for show?
You can check off the boxes that will notify viewers that your picture will contain explicit content, but you’re not actually allowed to post explicit content.
Makes perfect sense. Also, quick side note, if you think there isn’t any porn on DeviantArt, you haven’t looked hard enough, hell, I don’t think you’ve looked at all.
The “Maturity Filter” is for good wholesome stuff like topless women and endless galleries of defiled corpses. Showing a penis going in a female gets your picture’s taken down, and maybe banned?
Ah yes, the most basic human instinct is cracked down upon and banned entirely, whereas it’s no problem for a picture of a mangled corpse to remain prominently displayed on the site. Well, I guess I’ll have to find another location for my sexual content. That’s something I can adjust to regardless of how facetious it may seem. Saves me some trouble, even though I do find it a bit odd that well known pony smut artists can have their content displayed, and even purchased, whereas smaller accounts like mine that are literally affecting nobody are cracked down upon.
Such is life. Live and let live I suppose.
Yea, sure is crazy how some people just don’t want dicks all over the place.
Tell it to most of the people on DA that have pictures of spread open asses with pussy and asshole exposed and call it art.
The nerve of these so called artists wanting to show some copulation among cartoon characters…
haha you like pony dicks
diiiicks
Stuff like this makes me wish dA would get stricter with their no-porn rule. Human porn should result in deletion, but pornographic versions of kids’ shows should result in a perma-banning. Seriously. This stuff is disgusting.
First point of all: learn the difference beetween inking and colouration. That’s a whole INKED picture, what i didn’t do was the colouring and i clearly wrote that in the comment.
Second point: ponies are NOT underage, hasbro said that, they’re teens. So what you’re talking about isn’t even pedophilia but ephebophilia
Do you even inquire before writing? You know that’s what you’re supposed to do when you write an article. Taking pictures and just randomly critiquing them, using OBVIOUS arguments it’s not doing an article.
Third point: Do not say that i’m a lazy artist when i specified that i tried many times before giving up. You know what an art block is? If not hen go check it, INQUIRE YOURSELF little journalist! Oh and i do care about Taliesin :3 I may have not completed the work, but i have done a travel of four hours to go meet him for his birthday with PLEASURE, that doesn’t seem lazy! Don’t talk without knowing.
Fourth point: If looking at drawn animal porn upsets you – WHICH IT FUCKING SHOULD – you should probably stop watching it XD It’s pretty simple! There’s no need to point out thei’re weird, i draw them! I know they ARE weird
And no one pretends you or any other person to like them!
Fifth: Aaand in the end… You say that we go against DA’s rules (and we don’t because i’ve read DA rules about porn before posting) but i’ll tell you a little something that we have here in Italy, wich is considered a big unrespectful crime: undue appropriation of art. That’s how we call it here. And that’s pretty much what you have done. Taking pics from artists without telling them, posting them without their permission and even editing them to make a banner out of it without them knowing anything about it. That’s pretty much against the rules, even DA rules
Have a good time <3
Wow. You seem pretty okay with being a sick fuck who likes to draw animal porn. I wouldn’t care if those ponies were adults. It wouldn’t make any of this shit okay.
That’s not the point, kind sir :3 You can think i’m a sick fuck, i don’t mind at all anyway
What i mind about are other things. But meh, i forgot that trying to show reasons to this kind of crowd it’s pretty useless. because they won’t even consider them, no matter how right they are 83 You just see what you want to see! I said the truth, from the start to the end, even when it could be turned against me X3 I may be a sick fuk, but i’m not a sick liar :3 Try to be objective instead of using harsh words to make your point <3 You know, those doesn't work much.
Well i made my point as clear as i could i guess, i had even fun doing so! Won't make a war about it because, at this point, that's the only think i could do XD reasoning it's useless. Since i'm a better person than that, i'll just leave you and your beliefs alone
Keep up the good job on telling lies about people ;D But at least have the guts to ASK them before :3 But the truth can burn, and you'll never be wanting to get it at all XD
If you were smart there could have been a nice exchange of ideas! But i pretended too much
In the moment they say something that goes against what you think it's true you get all upset. And this is the best satisfaction i can get <3 It means i'm right :3 GO NOW! Keep up the good job ^3^ I admit my mistakes, i admit my flows. You don't, that's what made me won! Truth against lies always is a good weapon. Bye, bye <3
Your post needs more hearts and smileys, so we all can tell you don’t give a damn. That’s why you came here and wrote this wall of text in the first place, right? Because you don’t care at all. Lol.
Haha don’t be mad max and post walls of text that don’t prove shit to me because we have legit rights.
If you’re gonna you the argument that someone said bad things about your pony porn then all those internet “comedians” who review games, movies and such would not be allowed, oh but wait they are.
Either call “Your Lawyer” or if you’re art wasn’t shit that Habermann here made clear critiques about, you would be on this site, simple.
I’m not mad :3 But, according to the words you’re using, you are :3 My wall of text prooves many things, you know it and you’re just not able to admit it
NOW… I’ll leave you and your art alone éAè Make the world a better place! GO! And save us… From ignorance! Before it’s too late!
first, i’d like to see your “legit rights”, because the link you provided before doesn’t say anything about editing pictures, i also asked about it but went unanswered. hope you can answer, at least.
of course they are allowed, they tell that certain movies or games suck, or at least provide indications for a fair judgement. but here someone told that a specific person suck and this, kind and educated sir, is insult and calumny. stick to judging art, not the artist or what the artist himself writes, says or does.
i saw critiques on the artist, not much on the art, but still… the arrogance! if something end up on a self-entitled external site ran by self-righteous people then must really suck!
But it’s like what Kaara said! How can he be mad when his wall of text is full of so many smiles and hearts and desu-cat-fucking-thing faces?
These pictures are still sick by the way. They have made me madly ill!
this was a really good read

That’s what you get out of an insult? I guess the “child” remark was pretty right about you too.
Do you always tell kids to eat your dick?
@pockyandhentai
Where did I say “eat my dick”?
Translation: You don’t answer cause you don’t have a point to or you’re too lazy
PLUS, yes my drawing are sick and perverted and i’m not protecting them from being so :3 As i already said!
Answer to answer XD
“for the purposes of commentary, criticism, news reporting, research, teaching or scholarship”
Even if it is so, you critiqued me not just the work itself :3 by saying that i don’t care about my friend and many other things XD I’d also add that you didn’t inquire yourself before saying things that aren’t true… Like your ABSOLUTELY wrong interpretation of the title XD So you did critique and commented stuff, but using as a base nothing wich lead you to write LIES :3 Wich is something that as well goes against the laws. Focus on the drawing, boy
And do interviews before shooting fake words, they might be of help!
care to point me where in your link it allows to edit pictures to make banners?
Even your copyright law link states: “The safest course is always to get permission from the copyright owner before using copyrighted material. The Copyright Office cannot give this permission.”
“Fair use” does not mean “I can post whatever I want”. It CERTAINLY doesn’t mean “I can mash art together to make a banner”.
Your data-holder will be hearing about this, since you managed to piss off 3 artists and a lot of fans.
Let’s read that a bit closer, shale we?
2. The effect of the use upon the potential market for, or value of, the copyrighted work
…
4. The amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole
You have violated point 2 since the work is being devalued. Not through your critique but through your mocking the artist and the “brony” aspect of the work. I say “mock” because it is not up to the standard of decent criticism.
You are submitting the entire work, not an extract or crop. AND you are altering the work and re-distributing it as the opening banner for this piece.
You have violated copyright law. The other 2 points (1 – “for education” and 2 – “the nature of the work”) do not apply since you are not teaching anything here and the work is not inherently meant to be posted off DA.
@Adderkleet
If you’re going to sue, I have some information that might help.
Haha, you believe that a furry is capable of also being a troll.
weird enough, i can’t reply on your other reply, so i’ll reply here.
Habermann clearly said that thebunnyden did not care about his friend and did not complete the picture due to lazyness. i don’t know where you live, but on this planet those are “insults”, not “opinions”. all Habermann had to do was to stick on the picture and not judge the person. doing so he simply demonstrated to be self-righteous and full of prejudice.
for the record: thebunnyden did not call anyone on his journal to attack here, learn to read. i’m posting here way before he did any journal
@Thebunnyden
“Even if it is so, you critiqued me not just the work itself :3 by saying that i don’t care about my friend and many other things XD”
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh that’s not mentioned in the legality page, because we would think that saying mean things about others not being against the law, would be obvious.
Like this:
“You’re a fucking disgusting fuck, who tries way too hard to try to seem like he’s happy with being insulted, by overusing shitty smilies and repeating the same shit over and over again, completely ignoring the fact that even beyond the shit you pretend to be proud of, you are just a talentless retard.”
Glad I could help.
Don’t bother DA legality is based upon personal protection of images, ie watermarking the image yourself.
On the other hand If you do bother good luck, I mean that!
Really?
You are so blind. You fucking idiot, “Uhhhh, nope!”
Its people like you why nuclear weapons exist.
It’s why people will always die and be slaughtered.
Continue with your taunting, your laughing. One day, you’ll drown in blood. And God forbid that I pull the trigger myself.
“Oh, I should rape you bitch,” may be the reply.
Men think that when they rape women, they control them. Us girls have been watching men for a long while, and only violence will get your point across. Slashing your throats. Shooting your brains out. Gutting you and cutting you up, butchering you like animals. I’ve sent my boyfriend to the hospital for cheating on me, and injured another man for fondling my breasts by smashing a beer bottle in his face.
You might wonder why I’m rambling about what I do to men. I want you to know, I HATE. I hurt people to get it across. I can’t do anything to you, but I want you to know that I abhor you, hate your site, and see your stupid blind fucking little comments and you laughing it off.
I will continue to support violence. People hurting each other. Development of weapons. Hell, we need another war. Maybe it’ll put you fat white pigs in line. See your precious little F-22 Raptors? You think its going to save you when you all sit around on couches insulting people and yelling “fuck you” at your girlfriend because she doesn’t make you a sandwich and bend over for you? You’re wrong…
I’d LOVE to gut you. Drink your blood, scoop your eyeballs out with a knife. Squish your entrails with my hands, laughing. Maybe have your heart for dinner. Fill you with so much lead that it’d violate a ton of sanitation laws. I’m a violent, sadistic bitch that would take great pleasure in slaughtering you.
Go to hell, pot belly. Perhaps you’d make a nice juicy meal to someone.
@Saatiya
lol ur dum
Hello there, I need to get your full name and contact information as I need to report your threats of violence and murder to Latviman and other members of http://www.metokur.org/ to the authorities.
We here at Metokur have a non violence policy and do not tolerate threats of violence or sexist comments to members of staff.
So if you could forward contact information that would be much appreciated.
@Sadistiya
>I will continue to support violence. People hurting each other. Development of weapons.
You should thank men for all these nice things.
Goddamn you’re a crazy bitch. You may hate this guy, but I don’t think he’s ever actually sent another person to the damn hospital. You make him look like a damn saint.
Please stop bitching about men. You’re proof that women are far worse. You make the decent ones ashamed of their vagina. I can’t wait for you to try to fuck up a real man who’s actually stronger than you.
You’re why we need to treat women the way we did in the 50s again.
No. What the hell is wrong with me? How could I fall for your shit and lies? You can’t be a quarter of what you say you are. There’s no way you actually put anyone in the hospital. You’re just lying out your goddamn mouth. You’re a passive-aggresive fuck who’s trying to scare all the betas away. Feast on a phallus, child.
@pockeyandhentai
Oh look a banned person coming on and typing responses. So when Latviman bans someone it’s not for real? Banned people aren’t actually banned?
@SecretlyEvil9792
I would appreciate it if you didn’t question my administrative choices, in the future.
Thank you in advance.
