WhatNo-OneWillAdmit, and other bad things Biology 101




I'm going to talk really basic biology here, ok? All readers not having reached puberty should look away, NOW. Or not. Wish someone had talked to ME.
Horses for girls versus horses for boys. Okay, lets break this down into the bare bones of anatomy, people. Are you ready? I got to thinking about this, of course, after a fugly comment thread. Why are women so nutty about horses? Why are men so abusive of horses? Why are horse people so crazy? Why are people horse crazy? I don't think it's changed much, since I was a kid. Thousands more girls fall in love with horses, than boys. Hmm, now, why would that be? Hmm, think about it now. Basic Anatomy Bingo. B is for breasts, I is for insides, N is for nether, G is for generation, O is for, okay, you know what O is for.

Ever notice how the dirty old men always leered at you, as a kid, hitch-hiking to the barn, if you said you rode horses? I learned to say nothing. Oh, yeah, baby, Ride that horse. Grossed me right out, thinking "That guy thinks I ride horses for the "sex" feeling only?" I'm 14 or so at the time, still wondering WTF happened with Mr. Worst/First. Yeah, first, alright. Nice GUY.

Eeeeew. But, again, thinking biologically, and totally dispassionately, which I can now, because sex isn't driving me anymore, there are very simple biological forces and facts at work.
(This is one of my nuttier theories about crazy horse people, anyway. Horses are passion. Horse People are passionate about their horses. Horses are LIFE. Women go crazy for horses.)

Women are built biologically/anatomically (and comically), to ride and enjoy (if they choose, and often if they don't) horses sexually. The only tiny thing that can hurt can also "tickle" in a REALLY, really good way. I landed on mine once, over a fence. All I can say, is OW. You want to DIE. For boys, square the pain, and add in the feeling of being kicked in the stomach. No WONDER they get a little more defensive when they ride. No wonder they don't have the same instant "feelings" women have for horses.

Men look at a horse, and think, okay, where the heck do my gonads go? What will happen to my TWO jewels? Women think, ooh, yeah. I could fit THAT nicely.
Hey, they do, sorry. Young girls, well, they don't know WHAT the heck they are feeling, really anyway, but man it feels good. No-one will explain the simple facts of sex to kids, of course, so the girls simply become madly enraptured of the horse. The boys sensibly move on to things that aren't so dangerous for their generational jewels.

Why not? The horse is a living vibrator. He is Love, in it's purest biological form. Pleasure for the senses. Mature women, starting out riding, must think "Where has the horse BEEN all my life??"

Guys look at the horse, and think, okay, I can't compete with that! I'll just tie his head down, and spur the snot of him, for revenge. Men are jealous of horses.
You all know me well enough, I hope, to realize that I'm painting the broadest possible picture here. It's just a fact of life. It drives the horse industry. Horses equal sex which equals power. Men HATE that, biologically speaking.

Nobody likes to talk about biology. It's gross. We become like the animals.
Hey, we ARE animals. It's frickin' NORMAL.

Okay, how many completely disagree? Or think I have now completely gone around the Mad Cow mentalpausal bend? No surprise, there.
Just a curiosity I have. NO, I am not saying women ride for sex. But they can, and believe me, some do. Men can't, and it pisses them RIGHT off. Of course, I am HUGELY generalizing. I'm great at that.
I am not saying you love horses just for the sex, OK? Dinners are nice, too. Box of chocolates, I'm there.
I'm just being coldly, biologically, logical. Think like Mr. Spock for a minute.
Have at it.

To Horses. There is nothing wrong with that.

I completely understand. For myself, I grew up in a household where "there" was dirty. But, I being possessed of an insatiable curiosity, read everything scientific and romantic about men and women's bodies. There is definitely something very intimate when we are astride a horse. I am sure that the combination of warmth and the way the pelvis gently rocks with the movement has triggered unfamiliar sensations for many a young woman. After all, there is something profoundly sexual about being so connected with so much sinuous, undulating, raw power. Also, our response to rhythm is an ancient inclination going back to before written language. Everyone reacts to some form of rhythm which leads me to believe there is a biological component somewhere way back in our evolution. Gosh! I'm really on a roll tonight.
