Anthro is just short for anthropomorphic. Anthropomorphic means making something non human more human. It has nothing to do with hybrids. It basically boils down on how humanized something is, the more humanized the more anthropomorphic
The ponies are anthropomorphic horses for real horses don't act like people or talk or even have their facial structure. The EqG are also anthropomorphic horses and so is humanized mlp. As a matter of fact humanized is the most anthropomorphic style since the characters are more closer to human.
It seems kinda irrational to h8 something that so prevalent on this board desu

welcome to 4chan, newfriend
People hate anthro because of furries, just like people hate ponies because of bronies, Justin Beiber because of Beiberfags and Religion because of Extremists.

Humans are shit. Don't taint the glory of horse pussy.
The only reason the MLP ponies are "anthropomorphic" is because humans are egotistical and think of themselves as the only creatures with certain traits that actually any species could eventually develop.

Full human or full pone
Anything else is heresy and you should fucking know it
OH GREAT IT'S A SHITTY SEMANTICS FALLACY THREAD

I hate anthro because it is a legitimately ugly artstyle.
>>25853393
Most anthro looks like shit (see Disney for doing it right), people hate ponies because society says it's not for boys, Justin Beiber's music is shit just like the rest of pop, religion is shit because its entire existence is to control people.

Speak for yourself. I dislike him because he's kind of a cunt in real life and his music is generic pop.
>>25853404
U wot m8. The ponies are certainly more physically human than previous generations.
>>25853354
Because it's disgusting
you just described the term's origin, but its currently understood meaning is different from that
Because anthro is synonymous with furry and furries have been the gingers of the internet since the web went online.

Depends on the art style, most of the time the artist is too unskilled to handle human anatomy, turning pony art into some abomination that looks like it crawled out of the #anime tag on deviant art.
>>25854608
This tbhh
Your whole fandom is built on anthro animals brah
>>25853761
Is it? Maybe around here, yeah. But to the general internet community they're pretty obscure.
