I actually see Shadow Rainbow Dash being a more kid-friendly version of Shadow Kanji, need for acceptance and all, just swap sexual preference issues with indecisiveness of having to choose between being “cool” and being “uncool/sensitive”.
 
“Oh, how I detest the cool types… so arrogant and self-centered! They don’t care if you’re hurt, attack anything they don’t like, spread nasty lies… they look like some… some disgusting THING and criticize ever little flaw… LAUGHING at me all the while! ‘You like to dance? What a wimp!’ ‘Reading is so not you.’ ‘But you’re supposed to cool…’ ‘You don’t act cool..’ ‘Why aren’t you extreme..?’ What does it mean to be “cool”? What does it mean to be “extreme”? Cool types are so atrocious it’s pitiful…”
