It’s not a lie.

8chan was literally founded on bitching about women having the audacity to play and report on video games other groups; Tumblr ain’t got nothin’ on the chans when it comes to pissy moaning.

@TexasUberAlles  
As for limiting the research to one site, please keep in mind that I’m only one person; doing this every month during my free time. It’s not like I have a government grant and am paid to study porn for a living. If I was, you can bet the research would be more thorough.
 
I picked rule34.paheal.net specifically because it specializes in porn of everything. It just have a rule against posting porn of OCs, which would give the Sonic fandom and other fandoms an advantage over series without excessive OCs. This limits the porn to actual characters, without muddying the data with ponysonas and gemsonas.

@TexasUberAlles  
Ah, that explains it.

@TexasUberAlles  

 
Tumblr has a lower threshold for bitching at other groups than the rest of the web. Not that shocking

@ender1200  
I am legitimately shocked that the damage appears to be largely contained to Tumblr; that’s the tag the semi-responsible perverts use for SU porn to keep it segregated from the rest of the fan art.

@TexasUberAlles  

 
I’m morbidly ciurious but google search returns nothing.

Did you ever try googling “steven galaxy”? The vast majority of SU porn isn’t on rule34.paheal, not least because they’ve apparently decided to actually start occasionally enforcing their prohibition of underage human characters. You can hardly call a survey of one site “scientific” if you’re trying to draw any larger conclusion from it than “what’s on that one site”.
 

@Tumblr Feminism Is A joke  
This tells me, that MLP has not enough foalcon porn.

But SU has the edge in pedo porn. Checkmate

You know I kind of wonder about how would april turn out for SU. march saw a 300% jump in content, so is it just a coincidance and the content level return to normal or are we seing a true rise in intrest?

That is an interesting queston. However, I’m not sure how you’re going to take stasticial analysis and use it to answer a “Why” question.

…The only thing this tells me is that Steven Universe has not enough porn.

@Rikmach  
I want to know why? Why does Twilight Sparkle have more porn drawn of her than any other character? Why is Pokemon the only series with a larger number of explicit images? Bronies have only been around for five years, yet their creative output dwarfs nearly any other fandom. Star Wars, Star Trek, Doctor Who, Lord of the Rings, Marvel comics, DC comics. None of the porn generated by any of these fandoms, which have been around for decades, comes close to the amount of porn created by bronies.
 
I want to know why? Are bronies generally more perverted? Art they more artistic than the average fandom? Porn only accounts for about 10% of all MLP fan art. What compels bronies to create at a rate that’s greater than every fandom besides Pokemon?

@bronystories
 
Hmmm. If you’re simply trying to prove that MLP is generates more adult images simply in terms of quantity than Steven Universe fandom, this seems to be a pretty straightforeward task- though, of course, I’m wondering about the next step of science: Analysis. Once you have proven your hypothesis, What conclusions are you attempting to draw from it? Because a data point in and of itself is kinda useless.

@Background Pony #C70E  
Science: “the intellectual and practical activity encompassing the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment.”  
Systematic: “done or acting according to a fixed plan or system; methodical.”  
Experiment: “An orderly procedure carried out with the goal of verifying, refuting, or establishing the validity of a hypothesis.”  
Hypothesis: “a supposition or proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence as a starting point for further investigation.”  
My hypothesis is that bronies generate more porn than any other fandom. I experiment by gathering data on the amount of rule 34 produced each month. This is done in an orderly fashion. Through this process, I am able to compare each fandom in terms of productivity. Click the link in the description for more information.

This is not science.

@bronystories  
I guess I’m just not sure what the point is. What does this graph supposed to tell us? That we produce more porn? I think that as defensive as we can get about the subject sometimes well all already know that…

So essentially, something about trying to out-baby them. Got it.

@Background Pony #C45D
 
My expertise is in rule 34 statistics. I can tell you that explicit images makes up about 10% of all mlp fan art. This information isn’t reflected in this chart.
 
If you want to know safe to NSFW ratio and a comparative size of the different fandoms, this chart won’t help you. If you want to see how much porn each fandom generated month-to-month, this is the chart for you. It all depends on what you’re looking for.

@bronystories  
It’s called a spike in interest. When something is being talked about, it increases interest and exposure. Just take a look at any controversy and look at how there is a spike in numbers correspondent with the time the controversy is being talked about.
 
Unless you can make numbers that takes into consideration the relative size of the fanbase, artists and the % difference in safe to nsfw ratio, this whole graphic is hogwash.

@Background Pony #C45D  
It’s worth noting that Steven Universe generated more porn in March than in the previous five months combined! Even when My Little Pony was just starting to become popular, it never saw such an explosive growth in new porn. If this continues, Steven Universe may be a force to be reckoned with.

The shows have different sized fandoms, different amount of characters and started at different dates; you might as well compare Pokemon and My Littlest Pet Shop.
 
In conclusion: oh no, the amount of porn is not the same, this affects me on a personal level somehow.

@ender1200  
Part of the reason why I focused on Rule34.paheal.net is because they don’t allow OCs. Only canon characters. This helps report more accurate numbers, since the Sonic rule 34 would be much larger if OCs were allowed. MLP has ponysonas and Steven Universe has gemsonas.
 
The case could be made that OCs are an indication of the popularity of a series, but I feel it gives certain fandoms too much of an advantage.
 
For example, fans of Super Mario Bros aren’t known for creating OCs like the Sonic fandom. I want to try and keep everyone on as equal footing as possible.

@RollinRocker420  
My thoughts exactly.
