What the adult and teenage fans of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, usually males, refers themselves as.
by Jakey Pie March 15, 2015
Group of males who think because they watch a TV series intended for teenage girls, that it somehow makes them rebellious and going against the norm. MY little pony fan base are a bunch of failed creations, craving for some kind of attention since they have no kind of social life or motivation to be something. Most will try to put up an argument, but you can't defend being a fan of a TV show about ponies when your an overweight slob with a neckbeard.

Word/Phrase given to males who watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. It is the combination of the words: "Bro" and "Pony," hence Brony.
The term is generally used for the older male fanbase.
It originated from 4chan's /b/, and was said to be the source of the "b" in "Brony." However, many sources (including Hasbro) have repeatedly confirmed that the prefix of "Brony" is "Bro."
Recently, there has been many disputes regarding the true definition of Brony. Some may claim that the definition can also be used for females, but this then deems the whole point of the definition invalid. A Brony is a male.
To view the direct counterpart of Brony, see Pegasister.

Bronies: Teenage to young-adult, mostly male, fans of the animated cartoon "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic." The term is often accepted as gender-neutral, and many female fans prefer "brony" over the not-so-popular "pegasister."
We have an awful lot of negative stereotypes that mostly aren't true. Not all of us are into R34. Not all of us are homosexual. And not all of us are furries; our fandom is, in my opinion, completely separate from furries.
We have a ton of talented artists, musicians, and authors that make our fandom so special. The fanbase is constantly growing and spreading it's hard to avoid if you're an avid Internet user. Will everyone appreciate this? Hell, no. Is it necessary to bash the fandom because it? Absolutely not.
Before you bash and call us "faggots," check out the show for yourself.
(By the way, Fluttershy is best pony. Your argument is invalid.)

A brony is an adolescent or adult male who is a fan of the show "My Little Ponies." The fact that they exist shouldn't at all be surprising because the vast majority of adults enjoy watching some cartoons made for children. Men who fall into this category have no problem accepting that fact, and they're generally very chill, cool guys. A few are still secretly bronies because they don't want to be viewed as strange or different. As with all groups of fans, there exists a small offshoot of people who are perverted and deranged. These are referred to as pervonies. They consist of fan fiction writers and fan artists whose work is filled with sexually explicit and/or macabre subject matter loosely based on the "My Little Ponies" cartoon. This group also includes consumers of such material.
"Hey man, I heard you like My Little Ponies. Isn't a guy fan of that show called a brony?"
"Yeah. It's actually pretty cool. You should check it out."
"I dunno. It sounds kinda gay to me"
"Uh-huh. And I heard you're a fan of Sailor Moon and Pokemon. What's the difference? Ponies and kid's little anime characters seem on the same level to me."
"You got me there bro. I might check out a youtube clip or something."
"Yeah. It's actually pretty cool. You should check it out."
