Yepp, just now.
Read yesterday in a german FiM Blog, that knowyourmeme.com
has "upgraded" the status of FiM from "Meme" to "subculture".
But i did not know, that this alredy happend aprox. about a month ago.

Anyway! YAY 4 bronydom! We wouldn't have made it without such an committed fandom. *Brohoove*

I reject this classification as it requires far more than ponies to truly be a "subculture"

seriously this is like calling Lady Gaga fans a "subculture". it's meaningless and only shows that knowyourmeme decided to change its classification to protect the place of their precious f7u12 faces.

^ 7305 "subculture is a group of people with a culture (whether distinct or hidden) which differentiates them from the larger culture to which they belong"

From what I can see, bronies clearly match that definition. Apart from the fact that they all "like" something (a reference to those fans of Lady Gaga you mentioned), they (or should I say, we) present completely unique culture and creativity. Bronies aren't content to be just "fans" of the show - just look at the amount of completely unique artworks, stories and music that has been created.

Unlike typical fans, bronies don't stop at just admiring something (oftenly quite fanatical ;) ). Instead, they build a completely new and unique culture around the focus of their interest. And that is subculture.

this is as much of a subculture as Doctor Who.

@ Ano7362: True. That is exactly how i would a subculture too.
I'd say, from a creative point of view, this goes beyond then "just being fans".

If only the Brony subculture was based on the show. Ah well.
