Grown men and women watch a cartoon made to sell horses to four-year-old girls. Now increasingly torious, bronies have been called everything from sexual deviants to a bellwether of post-ironic culture, from misogynists to a vision of a future free from gender rms. This second volume of essays in the My Little Po-Mo series combines critical analysis of the second season of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic with ethgraphic examination of its fandom, with a focus on what might be called the dark side of the latter. Sex, death, and chaos, handled as only a children's cartoon can! This volume includes: *Critical essays on every episode of the second season. *Three essays representing in-depth character studies of Rarity, Applejack, and Zecora. *A study of bronies as an aspirational fandom. *Essays exploring controversial aspects of bronies, including porgraphic clop, violent grimdark fanfiction, the Derpygate controversy, and fan aggression. *And more!
