Now you know you aren't being quite accurate here. You weren't told any such thing.
Cartoons are not a sign of pedophilia. They're harmless fun.
However, there is a phenomenon of adult men who like pink glitter ponies, and who self-identify as "Bronies." Some of these men are, indeed, pedophiles, and some of them obtain sexual arousal from dressing up in pony suits and/or watching the ponies.
Associating oneself with such a phenomenon is, well...let's just say if my husband were into it, I'd be alarmed.
I’ve also been told by certain freepers that they completely believe the same stylesheet the mainstream media portrays and are all for the magnifying-glass “can’t see the forest for the trees” mentality of demonizing an entire group for a troup of whackos.
They also proclaim to have knowledge of the internet, but would be utterly shocked if I were to divulge the depravity of everything they ever loved. Because its the internet. Again, the magnifying-glass effect.
there's bronies....(wtf.??)..
and finally a bronie mixer..
we report, you decide
