I'm definitely not comfortable with this being incorporated into the show, if they ever do. I'm Christian and I disapprove personally, but there's a bit more to it than that. A lot of parents don't approve of it, including mine. So if we all love this show, how is it going to fare when there are little kids who DO like MLP? It's more than just us bronies, parents might not allow their kids to watch MLP anymore if they find out what's being incorporated. No matter how much social media tries to make it look like a bigger thing, only a small percentage of people are actually gay. Some might not like it, but they accept people's choices. Some hate it. And while there are those who will celebrate it if it ever is incorperated (it used to be considered a mental health disorder, and, personally (this is my own opinion do NOT hate me), I don't think they were far off. Now, however, is a polar oppisite in my book), there are still plenty of people who will hate it, and the show will lose viewers. Even if it does become a "norm", myself and plenty of others will refuse to accept it as normal. To me, it is a reminder of how broken the world is (how can you argue we don't live in a broken world when people die?! If you still think that's a weak argument, you likely have yet to lose someone), and I don't need to think about troubles, heavy burdens the world chooses to bear under the illusion of it being a rock, as heavy as the burden, but instead of on our shoulders under our feet, lifting us up: someday that illusion will fade and the rock will betray us and crumble to dust (slavery used to be considered fine, everyone! The world shifts and changes). I don't want my escape from the real world, my entertainment that is a small part of why I enjoy life, to just be a heavy reminder of this.
