Let me see if I understand the reasoning.
 
People will make all kinds of porn with and without same-sex pairings no matter what, but the fear is that having one officially in the show will lead to… all kinds of porn with and without same-sex pairings?
 
Furthermore, what exactly is the harm here? “doesn’t make it right” suggests that someone or something is getting hurt somehow from racy fanart, and I don’t know who would sustain any sort of injury, physical or mental, apart from pearl-clutching puritans and possibly militant homophobes.

Never said that it doesn’t exist or that I thought that there wasn’t any. I know very clearly how well the Internet fallows that particular rule.
 
My comment is about the show possibly handing these people a green light. Just because it’s going to happen anyway doesn’t make it right.

Agreed. But there’s a thread for this conversation. Here.

Dude. How can you be on this site and not know that there’s tons of porn of every single character regardless, in relationship contexts and otherwise?
 
There’ll be porn no matter what any content creator does, which has more to do with the show’s popularity than the relationships it depicts.

This right here. This is a major reason why there shouldn’t be any relationships with the main cast in EQG or FiM. The moment that happens you hand an argument to those who make porn of the show, and worse you hand an argument to the sad number of adult fans that, at times, push out children and their parents from enjoying the show.
 
Yeah the LGBT community would probably go nuts and some fans would be happy but you create more problems than you solve. Not only for the end or this Generation of the franchise but the next Generation as well.

Not necessarily true. But, it is likely that might be how some overreactive parents might see it though.

I hope they don’t listen to people like you. So vapid. If they gave people like you everything they wanted the show would be a total mess of lesbians and probably porn.

Im allergic to cats sadly. Parents had to give away family cat when I was a kid after allergies developed. I still like cats but, sadly, I will never be a cat person again. I really miss the little guy.

Somethin like what you’re talking about is like Dug from Up. That’s just a dog with a voicebox. Dog Spike is clearly smarter than that. But hey, I’m not gonna sit around and argue with some anon all day. So, stay mad and good day sir.

Well, I mean, it’s just words on a screen. Would it be accurate for me to claim you’re raging simply because you’ve typed a response? Not really. Don’t project onto others. You totes sound like you’re raging hard right now, dude. Riiiiiight?
 
Spike still is more that jus a pure dog at this point. His self awareness makes him more than just a simple dog.
 
No, he’s still very much just a dog still. You’re making claims that just don’t match what the show shows, y’know? He still likes to chase squirrels and stuff. He just happens to be magically able to use English words to express that, in addition to barking and running after them. He still clearly has all the same wants and interests as a normal dog.
 
Further, let’s grant all the things you say. Let’s assume that at some point in the future Spike encounters a female dog in heat and expresses a desire to mate with her. Y’know, how dogs actually do. I kind of doubt the resulting “conversation” would fit in the rating, nor would they put it in the show. It doesn’t fit the core message of the show.
 
You’re saying you think the show will A) change what kind of stories it wants to tell, away from stories about highschool girls dealing with magical problems and friendship, to “little boy/dog-thing needs a girlfriend.” B) you’re asserting that changes will be made to make Spike less of a dog than he is and more into a human, in order to explore human-like relationship stuff with him. C) this will happen instead of more shorts/movies/etc. focused on the already human characters.
 
No, he’s still just a dog. Go learn what words mean. Go learn about dogs. Go learn about storytelling.

Whatever it is, Spike still is more that jus a pure dog at this point. His self awareness makes him more than just a simple dog. Twilight, as not just Spike’s guardian, but his friend would want him to be happy. Should Dog Spike ever feel that that meant doggie romance or something along those lines, I have no doubt Twilight would at least try to find a way to make Spike happy. As for why I said calm down, its because you seem to be raging hard over a kids show about talking horses, their human counterparts and a talking dog.

Dogs are sentient, and humans are instinct-driven.
 
Go do some learning. You might want to start with Googling the difference between sentience and sapience to start, but there is a whole lot you appear to be missing out on.

Except he is a regular dog still, he still wants to chase squirrels and eat from dog food cans before even looking at Rarity in the way dragon Spike does. If you think they need to start having dog Spike crush on human Rarity just because, then you’re barking up the wrong fetish.
 
Being able to talk does not mean sentient, he’s always been sentient. Bolder would be the definition of not sentient.

So what if Spike spent his time as a regular dog before, he’s not now. Treating a sentient entity as just a regular, instinct driven, lack of rational thought having beast of burden is just plain creepy and sad.
