Ponyboys

Ponyboys refers to a group of individuals who identify with the "pony play" subculture. This subculture often involves role-playing as ponies or horses, which can manifest in various ways, including wearing costumes, using specialized equipment, and adopting equine behaviors. The practice is typically engaged in within a consensual adult context and is often explored as a form of escapism, creative expression, or a way to explore power dynamics and personal identity.

The term "pony play" is a part of the broader BDSM (Bondage, Discipline, Sadism, Masochism) community, though not all individuals who engage in pony play identify with BDSM. The activities within pony play can range from lighthearted interactions to more intense scenarios, always emphasizing consent and safety among participants. The level of commitment to the persona and the specific practices involved can vary greatly from one individual or group to another. It is important to note that pony play is a personal choice and does not reflect broader stereotypes about equines. Discussions around pony play are often private and specific to the communities that engage in it.
