He means that from a role-playing point of view. I for one, do not have one. I don't really feel like RP-ing.
I made one as a joke character in DnD once it's name was *clears throat* BLUTALOO DERPIDUS MAXIMUS III, a Storm Pony in the Equestrian Gaurd Apointed to his position by High Inquisitor General Luna serving at the right hand of the God Empress of Ponies (celestia)..... he later became a god of muffins....it was a very very odd DnD campaign....
It was more difficult to play than Mietens the Wearorer (the chosen Ranger Cleric of Lord Mittens the Warm (may his mitteny wrath rest in peace gently upon his mitten covered mittens))

There will always be narrow-minded bigots who target peaceful communities like ours. Seems like there's just no cure for that.
Not necessarily just
because we're peaceful. It's because we're covered in characters known
in the 80s for being very effeminate and such. Doesn't matter how great
the 'new' show is, people will hear My Little Pony and think of those
little girly toys back in the old days.
i think they target us more because they feel the 'accepted modern standard of masculinity' is marginally threatened by it, lets not forget this is a standard that was established oh 100 or so years ago before the First world war but after our own civil war(US) from my understanding. So we're being seen as a new social counter culture in the same vein that Gamers and DnDers and 'nerds/geeks (what have you) were viewed in at one point. It will pass once the buggers learn to accept that cultural shifts even minor bits happen. What's funny is that we (the brony community) still produce some of the best fan made Voice overs, animations, music, storylines, and artwork that i've ever seen on the internet in my short 21 years of life (having spent at least 7 online). I can't believe people can still somehow completely overlook the quality stuff the community has made.
