surverys involving people to give personal info (not generic info like gender, age, location ect) are always skewed, people are bad judges of themselves/lie. even so, bronies are what we all expected them to be.

from my knowledge of reading an ask/tell about commissions, i am assuming a chunk of the non male bronies are artists who identify as brony to sell art to manchildren.
