    The internet, where trolls are just trolls.
    PPL in real life would laugh hard and kill me if I tell them that...

    I actually told everyone about it! Several of them liked the show. So, I guess it turned out okay. :3

    My friends all know, one of them's a Brony anyway (he got me into it) and I'm slowly indoctrinating the others XD
    My parents know too, and they think it's a little weird.
    Basically I don't hide it, but I try not to shove it down peoples throats either, you can kind of tell who's going to be open to it and who isn't.

    they would maybe laugh, most people would think that it's wierd and then move on, Some would make fun of you for it, but no one would kill you because of it.

    Everyone just knows I guess? & has always known? I mean, I've been into ponies since G1, that's been a very long time for all the people in my life to get used to the idea that I'm the crazy one with the ponies. Most of the gifts I receive are pony-themed if they're not actually ponies (everything from hand-sewn items made of pony-printed fabric, to pony pajamas, to G1s bought from eBay). Everyone at my work knows too.

    I don't really talk so much about it, nor am I over-the-top with merchandise in public--I have 2 toys in my office which sit on a shelf & I don't play with them or anything, I have a couple of shirts for casual days, I have a mug, & I have a few buttons pinned to random items I wear. I think it's just a cumulative realization of how many individual pony items they've seen around me & the fact that I'm kind of weird anyways that leads to the lack of a "SHOCK, OMG, BRONY" moment when people find out.

    I'm new to the fandom, well when I say new I mean I came in around august 2014 so yeah.

    The first person I told was in fact my sister and she shrugged it off thinking it was a joke, this was the very first day I started watching MLP after watching six episodes.
    I went down stairs and then told my mam who was pretty open and we had a close relationship. She slagged the hell out of me! Saying things like are you gay? (Before I came out as being gay haha) Are you a girl? XD She didn't mean it though, she said soon after that it doesn't bother her.

    I dreaded to tell my dad, I don't know why but it seemed to be a terrifying prospect of him judging me and changing his opinions of me. Luckily I took up the courage to tell him and he was rather amused but excepting which was odd since I thought of my mam as the easy going and open minded one.

    My dad is in fact a huge Star Trek fan and he was the person who sparked my love for all things Star Trek related. Knowing he was a Q fan I went out of my way and got him to sit down and watch " The return of harmony episode 1 and 2" and "Keep calm and flutter on" and I am safe to say I may made him into a semi secret brony! He won't admit it though.
