No.
There are more bronies watching it than girls. Really.

I feel like I gave some fairly logical evidence (however anecdotal) that it legitimately doesn't make any sense that there would be more adult males watching it than the intended audience. But let me make it clear: There are a lot less bronies scumming around then you seem to think. So let's review.
A) MLP is broadcast on Treehouse TV in Canada, which is the 'really little kids' network that usually has stuff like Dora and Bob the Builder, or whatever their contemporaries are.
B)I'm assuming that most other countries broadcasting the show are doing the same with their cable-access equivalents. These are daily broadcasts scheduled to get as many kids watching as possible, as small children run on a fairly clockwork 6 hour schoolday or daycare schedule.
C) There are more small children than bronies. I'm sure that sentence got you excited, but my point is that you are a niche minority among a demographic of people the show is not intended for, and the intended audience's lives are literally structured to bring the show to as many of them as possible as much as possible.
I don't doubt that bronies are a billion times more passionate about a show intended to teach kids the basic tenements of empathy and getting along than the kids themselves are, but that's a whole other beast to 'the majority of watchers are bronies.' Which is fucking asinine.
