Looks like you are confusing manliness for sissyness. Don't.

I actually kinda like the ponies. Not a full-fledged brony, but there's elements of the fandom that are kinda cool (some of the music remixes are a guilty pleasure of mine, for example). But obviously the tone and visual style are a bit different, to say the least. Anyone taking exception to someone saying that MLP is out of place in Skyrim, well, like I said....come on.
I actually have to be careful. Like, if I were a brony, I'd embrace it as I do with any of my nerd interests. But I've never seen a single episode. But I've absorbed enough knowledge of it from the internet that I can sound like I know a lot about it (to anyone who doesn't). And of course, bronies aren't the...how shall I put this...most respected fandom in popular culture. So I don't mind taking sh*t for my nerd interests, but I only want to take sh*t for the ones I'm actually, legitimately, into.
So I slipped once with a Fluttershy reference or something, and was working damage control the rest of the night. Tricky stuff.
My daughter, 4 years old, watches MLP. She loves it. I've seen a total of 3 episodes with her.
I still don't get this Brony shit. I still think it is stupid/lame/absurd. I don't expect everyone to get my niche interests, as well: so it is a 2-way street.

Dragonborn is amazing. Exactly what DLC should be. Feels more like a full blown expansion than DLC. The new continent/island is beautiful and filled with things to discover and is a blast to explore. The storyline is great so far - with a sense of mystery and danger. Highly recommended.
