Talk:Derpy/@comment-2170890-20120627131909

I may be wrong, but I heard somewhere that one of the reasons the people who complained about Derpy thought she was "retarded" or whatever term you prefer (some find it offenseive some don't) was because of her voice. Now, I didn't find her voice retarded in the slightest - I just thought she sounded like a child of an old show, but here's what I don't get;

They chose Tabitha (who voices Rarity) to voice Derpy, and she (not knowing who Derpy was) assumed she was a stalion or a colt, and based the voice on a non-retarded boy she knows. So couldn't the whole thing have just been avoided if Tabitha had spoken up about how she chose the voice?
