My Little Pony: Friendship is Racism?My Little Pony=Racism?Now this has been bothering me for a while. I never thought it was a big deal but certain things have convinced me that this needs to be talked about.Now a while back, some idiot on Ms. Magazine said that MLP promotes homophobia and racism. Most fans of the show would agree that this woman is an idiot and I thought she was crazy. However, recently, I've seen some things that have worried me.In a chat, someone said they hated it when people drew the MLP cast as humans. Now it wasn't the fact they were humans that bothered them. No, it was the fact that some people tend to give the human ponies different skin tones.
Lets Talk About MLPLets talk about My Little Pony!I might loose viewers because of this.First off, I actually like this show. Why? Well it's cute, it's good good characters and what's this? A show aimed towards females that is actually good?When it comes to show catered towards girl, they tend to be super, girly, frilly messes. The characters are so one dimensional, they act like air heads and the only conflicts they have are not having a date for the prom. What's wrong with having strong, interesting, smart female characters?This break this down a little.The last decent girl show we had was Powerpuff Girls. After that, the only other girly show we g
Mockery's Beauty RantLet's talk about beauty and health.Now before we start, I think there is nothing wrong with being skinny. I have a problem with sending yourself to an early grave by starving yourself and working out until you pass out.I've noticed that our media tends to focus solely on the skinny people when they're advertising beauty. Yeah Gwen Stefani and Angelia Jolie are some choice pieces of meat, don't get me wrong but we don't we see Oprah advertising or Christy Allie? That seems unfair because both of those women are extremely beautiful.I get bothered that people have been brain washed that only skinny women are beautiful or have value. Why ca
The Night for JinneyThe Night Shadow looked at himself in the mirror. Was his tie crooked? No, it looked straight enough. Did Rachel like red or should I go with the purple tie? Maybe I could wash my hair again. Wait, where are going to eat again? It's a place with a name. Shadow growled and shook his head as he tried to think. Why was he so nervous? He had taken Rachel on dates. Why would this one be any different? Okay, so the setting was different and they were getting dressed up. It wasn't that different from any of their other dates. Or was it? Shadow knew he should be calm but he just couldn't shake the feeling of nervousness. He took ano
Tiana the Beauty of France-5Tiana slowly opened the bedroom door. Quietly as she could, she slipped out into the hallway. Everything was quiet but that did little to calm her nerves. Still, she was tired of moping around her room. Besides, she had never been in an enchanted castle before. What was the harm in poking around anyways?Tiana tiptoed down the way, making sure that the castle's owner was nowhere in sight. She never saw him though so she continued her journey. There was a small rumble from her stomach. She placed a hand on her belly; maybe skipping dinner wasn't such a smart move. Where was the kitchen? She could just rustle something up and no one
Tiana the Beauty of France-4Chapter Four"How dare she!" Gaston was enraged. "Who does that little yankee think she is?""Yeah, darn American woman!" Le Fou tried to cheer Gaston up. "Can I get you anything? Some ale?""It's no use! Nothing helps." Gaston sighed."Someone having lady troubles?"Gaston looked up. Standing before him was a tall, slim made wearing all black. On his head was a fancy top hat with a red feather and he leaned on a cane. He smiled, showing a small gap between his teeth. There was something extremely familiar about him but Gaston couldn't put his finger on it."Hey, can't you see Gaston's in a funk?" Le Fou asked. "He's not taking
Tiana the Beauty of France-3Tiana finally decided to venture outside once she was sure Gaston had left. She felt a bit better but at the same time she was still angry."I still can't believe it!" Tiana grabbed the bucket filled with chicken feed. "Me? The wife of that brute?"Tiana fed the chickens then placed the bucket down. She reached into her pocket and pulled out a piece of paper. It was from an old magazine, some type of advertisement. Daddy had ripped it out and wrote on it, Tiana's Place. Whenever she looked at it, she could really see her own place. There would be a gourmet kitchen filled with some of the most talented chefs around; there would be tab
Tiana, the Beauty of France-2Chapter TwoTiana had been given the day off so the next morning, she cooked an old fashioned Louisiana breakfast for her and her mother. After that, Eudora left for her job at the local tailor's, leaving Tiana to her own devices. She was sipping at some hazelnut coffee when there was a knock at the door. She set down her cup and headed to the door. She opened it and found Gaston standing there, his hands on his hips and wearing that infamously smug smile of his along with a red and yellow suit."Hello Tiana.""Morning Gaston," Tiana faked a smile. "Is there something I can help you with?""Tiana, you have no idea how lucky you are,"
Tiana, the Beauty of France-1Tiana soaked up the sun as she headed out into the village square. It was another peaceful day in this simplistic town she had grown to love. As she headed into the square, the world started to come awake. The baker started coming out of his bakery with hot, fresh loaves while the local farmer was heading to his stand to sell his newest crop of pumpkins. She waved to both of them but she didn't have time to chat. She had to get to Délices du Ciel before the breakfast rush started or Monsieur Leveque would be fretting up a storm.Tiana opened the door to the old French bakery, taking in the scent of freshly baked croissants and crep
Heading Back to Wonderland 1Dinah Jr. mewed loudly as she tried to wake up her owner. Alice merely yawned and rolled over on her side. Dinah Jr., however, wasn't so easily swayed. Jumping up onto the pillow, Dinah Jr. began to nuzzle Alice's head. Alice tried to push her kitty away but again, her cat refused to be ignored. Yawning Alice rubbed her eyes before she opened them. She smiled as her kitten mewed and snuggled into her owner's chest."Just like your mother," Alice sighed. "You never let me sleep, huh? Well, I better get up anyways. I don't want to be late."Alice got up and stretched. She headed towards her bathroom, taking a look in the mirror. She
PtaF:Sugar and HoneyThe kitchen breathed with a sweet, airy aroma. It swirled around the room, gently enveloping every nook and cranny. It was warm, soft and inviting, the kind of place you wanted to take a nap in and never wake up. The fire crackled softly, inviting you to come sit by the hearth and warm yourself. Tiana's hands had become all sticky from the honey she had dribbled on her beignets. She wiped them off again before powdering the fluffy pastries. The sugar fell onto the beignets like snow covering a hill. They stuck instantly, becoming part of the treat. With a smile, she licked the power sugar from her fingers. Naveen entered the kitc
Dragon Child Start Lighting flashed across the sky, thunder crashing. Silver rain drops ran down the back of Milalic as he stared up to the clouds. His mate, Xerofa, watched him from the cave. Her saw her watching him and he couldn't help but smile. No matter what, Xerofa always managed to make him smile. The storm continued to rage; Milalic entered his cave, deciding it was better to be with his mate. After all, this was their first litter. He should be with his mate. The vibrant green eggs glowed in the light of the fire: four of them, oblong globes that glisten like emeralds. Xerofa had diligently watched over her beauties, awaiting their hatching
