No, I mean, what functional purpose? To cut down on saying MLP fan? Is it to give them a sense of community or something?
I mostly ask this because I love PPG, Dexter, Symbionic Titan, Justice League, Young Justice, Regular Show, Adventure Time, Johnny Bravo, Samurai Jack, and so many other cartoons... and I've never felt like I needed a label.
I suppose it just makes it harder for me to be a fan of the show, to get involved. The term "Brony" comes with so much bullshit at this point. I just want to say, "Oh yeah, MLP: FIM? Good show! I watch it from time to time. Real cute, real fun, really well made."
I dunno. I feel like labeling ones self for being a fan of something is kinda asinine and serves to divide fanbases rather than unite them. But maybe that's just me. |
