GENDER STEREOTYPES – Bronies, gender policing and an effective counter-tactic
Bronies challenge the gender norms for men on several levels and they come in for a lot of shaming, as Typhonblue points out.
When her piece on bronies was posted to the MensRights sub-reddit, it generated a very telling discussion. The nature of that discussion proved Typhonblue’s point.…
