Pegasister (noun, plural pegasisters) is a term used to refer to an adult, female fan of the animated show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.[1][2][3] It is a portmanteau of the words "pegasus" and "sister".
Some female fans reject the term pegasister on the basis of it being a gendered term created specifically to be the opposite of brony, with this distinction being a form of exclusion or discrimination.
