(Darn it, I wasn't here for the first post/page. lol.) Anyways, I rarely try to hide it. Even when wearing my shirts. So I display it so everyone around me can see it, well not so much in college since it's cold and I wear a jacket because of the temperature and to conceal it until after classes and such.
I don't advertise that I like ponies, but I don't hide it either. I have a collection of merchandise going on my dresser, and I wear a Rainbow Dash key chain everywhere I go. If someone asks what it's about, I'll tell them. (which has only happened a few times)
1.) Do you hide your bronydom? Well, other than wearing MLP shirts in public, there's not really any other ways I can reveal my bronydom to the public. 2.) Do you display it proudly/concers what people will think? Yes I do! I have two MLP shirts of my own (Rarity and Pinkie Pie) and I wear them with pride to let everyone know that I love FiM! And I'm not even concerened about what those people will think of me liking it! If they don't like it, they can deal with it! 3.) Do you integrate ponies in your life? Well, the only way I have integrated ponies in real life is trying to make for FiM referneces whenever I can! The next time I have to put more music on my MP3 player I'm definitely putting some pony music on it!
I don't really go out of my way to make it known that I'm a brony IRL. I have 2 posters and some MLP toys in my dorm, but other than that I don't really talk about it. I have one brony friend IRL, and that's pretty much the extent of it. Kind of lame, but I don't think I'm surrounded by potential bronies. =[
1.) Do you hide your bronydom? Why should I? I keep reading MLP Fanfics even on the bus! 2.) Do you display it proudly/concers what people will think? Oh yeah. Today for example, I used my Derpy Hooves T-shirt and went to a church and a restaurant. No worries 3.) Do you integrate ponies in your life? Yes. Since I'm allowed to listen to music on my work, I'm usually playing pony music. And when the work stops, I'm allowed to draw so I draw ponies
I proudly sport my brony self! I've got a RBD tattoo and I'm getting a Sweetie Bell t-shirt soon. I spout random MLP quotes all the time and have like 9 of the mini figurines. As you can probably tell I don't care what people think about me. I was 'weird' enough already before I got into MLP so it made it really easy to integrate MLP into my daily life.
*update on my life* Almost a fully open brony now as far as I'm concerned, I play pony music with headphones in computers class, some people I know in my class know I like ponies, my sister's friends know, I post on Facebook, blah blah blah blah blah.... It feels nice, not to have to worry about things like hiding bronydom and the sort. Now, to pony-ize my classmates, and my life! /)^3^(\
Im normally quite secret about it in the real world, but am trying to tell closer friends im a brony this weekend. Been a brony for a while and have decided that, as season 2 is being released this weekend, its a good chance to allow some friends to know. Then, I don't think Ill say anything don't need to at school, as this probably would cause verbal abuse, lol. Especially as a semi-friend of mine seems to be a little bit anti-brony.
1. Well, I don't usually go outside and just scream "MY LITTLE PONY!!!! YEEEEAAAAH!!!!" (or at least I haven't yet), but if someone asks me about it I'll tell them. I've also attempted to get several people to watch the show. So no, I don't try to hide my bronyism. I just don't bring it up unless it comes up. 2. I do own one pony shirt and will maybe get some more. I'll use the references when I can, but no one ever picks up on them. :\ As for people hating/disliking me for it or whatever: I don't really care what people think. I'm not going to limit what I like or dislike based on what other people want me to like/dislike. 3. I do to an extent. I have some of the music, spend some time on these forums/EqD/other pony sites, own several MLP-items (I still refuse to buy a toy until they are show-accurate), and use several of the memes/quotes in my normal conversations now.
