    Or you just like to lie?

    But I digress. Anyways:

    I always thought that Bronies had nothing to do with being male, but rather the fact that a lot of the memes stemmed from /b/?

    I always assumed that it HAD to do with being a male MLP fan. Why else use the term 'bro'?

    Well, think about the term "/B/onies" and go from there.

    Anyways, I was just asking if anyone knew?

    There's actually two of those, three counting the weird "lick lips" which is the one you got. These are the other two emoticons you were probably looking for:
    :p :tongue: 

    According to KYM, that's "officially" where the term came from. So it's either that or the "bro + pony" thing. Either way, it's still brony in the end.

    Normally they are called bronies as well, but some have taken to using the term "Pegasister" to describe female fans.

    Better be careful. The last time we had one of these threads I discovered the show and became a fan. There's no telling who it will happen to this time. :)

    As much as I enjoy the praise, it's not a matter of being clever. It's a matter of being able to associate words on the fly. :p 

    He's holding both of them up for the camera.
