    Agreed. Because really? Last time I said 'transfan,' I got asked if I liked tranny porn. Plus, Cyberbronian just sounds awesome.

    Isn't "Brony" just a term for male pony fans?

    You know, like Broski? Not like that couldn't apply to women as well, but I was just operating under the impression that being a Brony meant I was a male pony fan.


    ... Cyberbronian is pretty cool, though.

    I think it means ADULT pony fans, like, not the "Little girl" demographic.

    I still like the term Transfans. Or we could be Robosexuals!

    I thought the "bro" in "brony" was just a play off "/b/rothers." Clearly everyone who surfs /b/ isn't male, but it sounds a lot cooler to add "bro" onto stuff even if there are female members, to indicate a group of people. Who knows, though.

    Either way, even if it doesn't catch on, I'm now referring to myself as a Cyberbronian.

    Transfans rolls much better off the tongue than cyberbronian in my opinion.

    I like it. Rolls off the tongue better. But the point was to look similiar to Cybertronian.
