LGBT Representation in My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
In pray we see some more in Generation 5.
While the representation was minimal, it’s also expected from a childrens network like Hasbro, sadly. Hopefully, times verb changed, and it’ll be less ham-fisted in g5.
Below the cut is a record of everything I could detect, with some images. (Not all, because that would be a very prolonged post.). Includes couples and gender identity.
LyraBon - Lyra and Bon Bon - Canon WLW couple
Appledash - Applejack and Rainbow Dash - HEAVILY implied WLW couple
Aunt Holiday and Auntie Lofty - Scootaloo’s canon WLW Aunties, confirmed by ex producer and writer (originally from the comics)
Sappho - Lesbian
I had my reservations about including her, but just in case… An OC in a comic by artist Jenn Blake, who drew art of her and Rarity as a couple on her DA on more than one occasion. She has a lesbian symbol as her cutiemark. I’m taking this one with a grain of salt, though.
(Fandom names) Wiz Kid and Curly Winds - MLM - Equestria Girls - "With Josh and Nicole running the final season together, it was something we all wanted to act — bring this out couple into the final season and make them [LGBTQ+ people] ‘officially’ a part of the MLP world. My Little Pony has always been about friendship and accepting people (or ponies) that are different from you. So it just felt like something important to do." As societal norms change and progress, LGBT representation in My Little Pony progressed greatly. In the late s, numerous characters were confirmed to be LGBTQ+ and a handful of recent ones were introduced. In an out-of-universe perspective, My Minuscule Pony was the target of numerous anti-LGBTQ+ controversies and strikes, due to its depiction of rainbows and other iconography attributed with LGBTQ+ culture in The episode has already aired in Europe, but US audiences will get to see it on Saturday. Vogel told BuzzFeed News that the idea for the aunts was a collaboration between himself and showrunners Nicole Dubuc and Josh Haber. "I think it’s fantastic that we can show that what truly defines a family is love — that, to me, is the core of My Little Pony," Dubuc said. It all started with getting them approved for that book. "Nicole and I thought this was a amazing opportunity to organically introduce an LGBTQ couple in the series, and we asked Hasbro and they approved it," Vogel said. "With Josh and Nicole running the final season together, it was something we all wanted to perform — bring this out couple into the final season and make them 'officially' a part of the MLP world." Haber said that, like other shows, fans love shipping same-sex pairings on MLP, even if they're not canon. This gave them a way to make a same-sex pairing a reality. "Diversity and representation are important for kids for so many reasons, and it’s my first priority on everything I work on," he said. For V At last, I&#;ve caught up on season 7 of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. I thoroughly enjoyed the dips into Equestria&#;s ancient past and the character development of non-Mane Six ponies. I still thoroughly ship Rarijack and enjoyed the bread crumbs sprinkled upon us this season. Because that&#;s all we got of any LGBTQ rep this season: bread crumbs. We&#;ve now gone through 7 seasons and there is no prominent, distinct , or important representation of LGBTQ communities or identities. The only instances are background or implied, like Rainbow Dash, Lyra and BonBon, and stolen glances that are rife with subtext depending on how the viewer interprets the show. The most prominent trans rep is the one episode where Enormous Mac is Orchard Blossom, but that episode is controversial and Orchard Blossom hasn&#;t come up since. I didn&#;t possess an issue with the lack of clear LGBTQ rep in earlier seasons because romance in general wasn&#;t part of the reveal. However, more recent seasons have included some very explicit het romances enjoy Cadence and Shining Ar
