I really don't care mr. anon. I dislike rarity, a lot. I don't hate her, cuz bronies don't hate. But I highly dislike the way she acts... reminds me way too much of high school/middle school preps. Yuck

On the surface maybe, but deep down she's a lot nicer and generous than appearances show.

If we just went with a cursory look at how a pony acts than Rainbow Dash would be one of those jocks who only cares about the sport and the glory they find for themselves

Of course she hasn't. Look up the word unapproachable in the dictionary, and you'll find a picture of Rarity under it.

If she's really generous than why would she wish for fluttershy's stardom to burn out?
Or why would she want to steal the dragon's jewels?
Or perhaps there's an explanation as to why she would practically make jokes on applejack, insulting her intellect?

Well, Rarity...there IS this one guy I know that likes you. He's very young, but give him time.

At first I didn't like Twi because she is snotty and sarcastic and unappreciative i hate people like this

didn't like RD because she was fucking arrogant and boastful and over-competitive i hate people like this

didn't like FS because she was one of those "soft-spoken" pushover bitches too concerned with themselves to do others the common courtesy of speaking loudly enough to be heard i hate people like this

didn't like pinkie pie because she's a psychotic spastic moron overly concerned with making friends with everyone and being popular and can't calm her shit and be serious for five fucking seconds i hate people like this

didn't like AJ because she was a stereotypical, uneducated, over-enthusiastic hick i hate it when tv shows do this

didn't like rarity because she's so damn fashion-obsessed and prudish she never gets anything done and the obsession and judgmental-ness fucking pisses me off i hate people like this

I got over it. All the ponies have good qualities (and bad ones, as mentioned, just like how IRL people have complex personalities). I love all the mane six. I love them. Love. They all have things that I like as part of their character. I love them all for different reasons. I don't dislike any of them in the slightest. Really not trying to be rude, but you need to wisen up. I would list the good qualities of all the ponies, but it would take too long.

@Streak: Her jealousy was natural, considering Fluttershy became a star overnight in the fashion field. She felt guilty about her jealousy, supported Fluttershy (actions are what's important), and was honest with her about being jealous instead of trying to ruin her.

She wanted the dragon's jewels because that's how she is. No excuses, she's still awesome.

She only ever insulted Applejack when she was being insulted in return, and that was just when they were getting used to each other. Their personalities collide, just as Dash/Fluttershy and Twilight/Pinkie do.

I do not take personal offense to rarity (if you even CAN have that towards a fictional character), and I do not erk in disgust when I see her, but when it comes down to it I just don't really like her.
I have had some bad (about 7 year's worth) experiences with preps, and have had some excruciating moments in my life because of them and the people associated with them. Though I do not peg this on rarity, because obviously she was never any part of it, I just don't like the kind of person (or pony) she acts as. Simple as that.

There must be something horribly wrong with your preps if they act a lot like Rarity. Preps are usually very well dressed, passive aggressive, socially discriminant, rely heavily on others, flake out quickly, and have very little personality. Rarity shares very few of these qualities, the only one is being well dressed. Trust me I hate preps probably almost as you do and when you really analyze how Rarity acts she is nearly the opposite of a prep.

Well this was actually... nice to read...
I didnt see any hate or flaming at all... well done to both of you...
I personally do not like rarity's preppiness and stuck up attitude... I went to a private highschool and people like her were fucking EVERYWHERE.
So it kind of gets on my nerves... well, that and me being a country boy and all. I really like applejack because shes similar to me. I love Dash because she has the same attitude I have as well as the whole loyalty thing... loyalty has become a HUGE part of my personality since wathcing the show.
I love fluttershy because im very protective and attached to innocence.
I love pinkie because she has the personality of, basically, my dream girl... yes I like hyper spastic chicks.
I love twilight because I like watchign someone grow and make friends, coming out of her shell... much like I did in highschool.
And yes, I even love rarity because of her generosity. And because of how hard she works to make dresses for her friends FREE OF CHARGE.

SO I guess you could say each pony has those traits that make them relatable to myself and my life.
The creators and writers did a DAMN good job of making the characters flawed, yet, perfect in their own way.

Writing this made me realize... I fucking love this show alot more than I thought I did....

@Epicplatypus: Well said. I used to dislike Rarity myself for the same reasons, but I realized that anyone who works as hard as she does can't be bad. She deserves the things she has--they weren't just handed to her--and she's skilled in her craft.

Everything else about her will only bother those who let it bother them.

Rarity is easily one of my fave characters. She is very generous and just enjoys the high life (who doesn't). She may appear 'preppy' but she definitely has a great heart. I mean, she went through all that trouble making dresses for her friends for no payment (in fact, she didn't ask for ANYTHING in return...just their happiness).

She can be annoying at times, so can all the ponies. Rainbow "Scrappy Doo" Dash is selfish, arrogant, and egotistical yet she still has many redeeming qualities (loyalty and courage).

Rarity is a generous and dedicated character and I respect her for that.

Yeah, she did all those things, so she's kinda shallow about her element. I don't really mind though. That just means she has room to grow. :)

Ladies, if you've been reading these comments and you feel you have some characteristics similar to that of Rarity, there's apparently quite a few people on here that'd really appreciate your company.

Remember what Lauren Faust said she was trying to get across to children watchers with her show?

"There's more than one way to be a girl."

Well, that works both ways. It doesn't just mean acting like a tomboy or whatnot; if a girl wants to act like a princess, more power to her, as long as she keeps her head attached to her shoulders. It's not fair to look down on Rarity for being "preppy."

Rarity is awesome. But this revelation of her lack of romantic history is hardly a surprise. All the more reason to read shipping fics.

Additionally, anyone else notice Jackaruda#366068?

Yeah, the Internet is full of hypocrites. I admit I am guilty of it too.

Anyways, is it just me or are "rich" or "classy" characters generally hated on this show? I mean Rarity, Blueblood, Tiara, and Silverspoon get lots of hate but Gilda and Trixie seem to get a lot of love despite their actions.

Rarity reminds me of Charlotte from the movie, The Princess and the Frog. A little stuck up, a tad self centered maybe, but always a good friend. She's the kind of girl who would hurt herself to help her friends (which she did do in that whole fashion episode). I like both of those characters for how they seem like they're going to act like a certain cliche (the mean bitch character), but then subvert it.

@Emo-kingbeat. I'm not the only person to see that then? :)

I thought Lotti was rather astute in the film, in her own way. She picked up on the needs of Tiana far more easily than the throwaway friends that're in the café at the start.

Rarity wanted what was best for Fluttershy and they resolved it in the end as well. Unfortunately, she only saw the needs as a extension of her own at first.

Props to Emo-kingbeat!
Yeah, I forgot all about Charlotte, but I could see how they are very similar in that aspect.

^overlore - You are definitely in the minority I think. I kinda like Blueblood simply because, as bad as people make him out to be, he is only harmlessly annoying at worst and a victim of his upbringing at his best. Gilda and Trixie are pretty malicious in some of their actions, actively hurting the mane cast. Blueblood is just a wimpy simpleton. Of course, all 3 could have freudian excuses (I expect it), but it makes me feel uneasy that characters with an air of sophistication get looked down upon.

Every good fictional character has at least one obvious flaw. Rarity has hers. I'd call it envy. Her entire life is wrapped around wanting to be like (and liked by) the upper-class types in Canterlot.
Now that she's met Blueblood and seen what Canterlot's upper-class can be like, maybe there will be some character development.

Yeah all theponies have flaws. Just look at Rainbow Dash:
- Scrappy Doo effect (uses brute force when she's obviously gonna get her butt kicked)
- the Worf effect (gets her butt kicked the most)
- can be very selfish (after the ponies relinquished their bid for the Gala tickets, she didn't until the others stared her down; despite knowing AJ and what Twilight said, she started playing dirty during the race in Fall Weather Friends just to win)

And yet no one ever calls out on any of this? She isn't bad and I don't dislike her though so don't misunderstand me.

Episode 14 was the defining episode in the series for Rarity, in my opinion. Just how she went through all of that trouble to make dresses for all her best friends without asking for anything in return. It shows what kind of pony she really is.
