![I always liked [Rainbow Dash], but.. those feelings started getting stronger for some reason. And it just wouldn't stop... I like the fact that she has this tough girl persona that's hiding a softer side to her that she's a little ashamed of... she's still a very strong person, and has no problem standing up for herself. Also her eyes are to die for. For this anon, the pony in question is loved for her human-like personality traits, as if one were speaking about a crush in real life: she has a "tough girl" persona with a "softer side." Anons' sense of sexual shame is thus extended to their sense of romantic shame, as they desire not only deviant sexual objects but inappropriate and impossible partners These partners are often referred to with the term "waifu," a term for a favored fictional woman derived from the use of "wife" as a loan-word in Japanese. Waifus are understood as the pony one feels a special sexual attraction to: "So, /mlp/, who's your waifu? Mine's Vinyl Scratch," begins one discussion. “Excellent choice, that pony is real sexy," responds an anon, and another agrees. "I can clop [mas- turbate] to that." The common use of "clopping," an onomatopoeia for the sound of hooves, as slang for m----------- is an explicit acknowledgment of /mlp/ anons' attraction to ponies.](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/313/975/817.jpg "An Excerpt from the Research Paper 'That Pony is Real Sexy': My Little Pony, Sexual Abjection, and the Politics of Masculinity Online")
