I must have been around 20 when I first saw MLP. So obviously I was into something else before that.
To confess, I used to have a simple fetish for not-really-sexualised-at-all human female appearances. But even when it peaked, I never had desire to look at pornography. I have also never dated. Traces of this fetish persisted for years, despite being not at all pleasurable. But all this pandemic stuff has finally finished it off. Thank God.
My attraction to ponies is much more multifaceted: including aesthetic, emotional, sexual and other aspects. Also, I require my ponies to be ponies; EqG, humanised, anthro, and other worsenings have never interested me.
