Dude, horse people are crazy I swear. One time, I had a random horse rider on my land. I had a dog with me that would attack predators/ large animals. A random horse person decided to use our trail and approach us. I grabbed my dog (100+ lb) and held her with me, hoping they would pass. We have clear fence lines, so it wasn't an accident. I hid the dog from the horses vision.

The horse rider had the fucking gaul , after showing up on MY land to say "your dog is scaring my horse, can you please stand up straight and act more approachable?". Mother fucker I'm not approachable at all right now. Take your horse home, and fuck off. They TRIED to make it a habit. I told them they could come back if they want to, but they're going to get bucked off. They haven't come back much. I get the idea, the horses are easily scared. You need to be careful around them. DON'T BRING THEM TO A RANDOM PERSONS RANCH AND COMPLAIN.

How did you know he was a Gaul? Was it the superior cavalry?

[–] yetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 1 week ago

Of course they had a Gaul?? They're a horse person.

The nerve of some people, to be where they shouldn't and then tell you how to act. I've ran into weirdly entitled horse people several times on hiking trails. For whatever reason horses have right of way over hikers and I've had so many horse people exercise that when it's been bad for me (and them). One lady tried to get me to stand by the edge instead of the mountainside because drops made her horse nervous. Like motherfucker, this whole trail is drops. Walk your horse if you brought the wrong one for the job. I'm not falling 200 ft so you can pretend to be a cowboy. Also, trudging through horseshit sucks. /rant

If its their land, man, I get it. Horses are super skidish. If its a private horse trail, they have the right of way. If they're anywhere off that trail, they're just being entitled.

[–] WhiteOakBayou@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

I'm sure private horse trails exist but I'm talking about public land where horses do have the right of way. The right of way goes Horse-pedestrian-bike. Sometimes people will cede their right of way, as to not force other trail users into dangerous positions. Trail riders almost never do. Mule and horsepackers often will, just not usually the purely recreational riders. I'm not saying anyone is doing anything illegal, but at the same time we shouldn't let the law get in the way of morality. Well trained horses aren't skittish. Well trained dogs aren't reactive. Well trained animals are rarely the problem and it's not like I'm going to blame horses for their riders' lack of control.

That's not just horse people, snowmobilers, bicyclists, hell, I had a guy just wander into my yard through the 6 ft privacy fence because his cheapo drone crashed in my yard, maybe. Fucking metal detectorists. I keep telling them it's illegal to dig in public places in this state and every single time, they argue with me and I have to threaten to call the cops before they fuck off. I even caught one in the boulevard in front of my house. Like WTF do you expect to find there? Random bolts that fall off cars? Nobody walks there, dude. Ever.

Ugh, horse people...

I had a similar experience while mountain biking on a shared use trail that was a former railroad. I could see the group of riders coming towards me for like half a mile, and knew I would need to stop to let them pass, as that's the yield order for the trail rules.

The leader of the horse people had the gall to start screaming at me to stop from 1/4 mile away. I had already started slowing down in preparation, but I didn't come to a stop until they were more like 100 yards away. As they passed, she chewed me out for not stopping earlier, she apparently thought I was supposed to stop half a mile away or something and wait 10 minutes for them to leisurely trot past me.

Fuck horse people. If your horses are that skittish around people and bikes, then they don't belong in public.

Is this why I’m afraid of my gf?

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 34 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No, you are afraid of her becaus of the way she ate the steak last week at the family barbecue....

Did fate mistake us for a pair of star crossed lovers?
The savory ending wasn't drowned in salt and pepper
And as we danced together, I cried a funny smile
As I felt you awake in the heat of feast
Now you're gone forever now inside myself here we go

Ooh Mr. Steak, you were Grade A

I believe when a man's in love he'll do anything he wants
He'll do anything that will come to his mind
And like that, Mr. Steak was in love every minute of his mind:
He's stepping left and right cha-cha
He came to me in a package of delight
Every other meal paled in his shadow ooh
He picked me, not the other way around
He came bursting at the seams
He pranced around la la

He brought the 1 2 3 he brought the four on the floor
He loved to move he was everything and more
And every bite just made him dance more and more
He loved to

Mr. Steak you were Grade A

Mr. Steak, he's such a bachelor at heart
He'd never met another cut that likes to booty booty shaky shake
Do you believe that a steak couldn't love
Or is hard to manage the fact of meat jerkin to the beat
But Mr. Steak he is practically an animal of joy
The rarest of all cuts: tenderloin
It was a tragedy of unimaginable fate his legend lives across the land
Hand in hand here we go
He brought the 1

He brought the 1 2 3 he brought the four on the floor
He loved to move he was everything and more
And every bite just made him dance more and more
He loved to

Mr. Steak you were great, eh?

Then my neighbor, Joey, with his saucer-sized nips should also be illegal.

[–] JargonWagon@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

Agreed.

Not wanting to cause fear in horses is my new go to excuse for everything.

I heard of a pastor in my town once say that "Satan lands a 747 of sin on exposed skin". Conceptually I think I just kind of like the way his brain worked, misogyny aside. Also according to him this means Boeing built at least one custom plane for Hell and that kind of makes sense.

Ive known girls shaving their pubic hair into a landing strip, and on further reflection it makes total sense why satan, and i, were so interested in them.

Given that we still have stupid pointy shoes that fuck up our feet because they made horse riding with stirrups easier forever ago, I fully believe this is a valid possibility.

[–] WhiteOakBayou@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Pointy shoes continue to make horse riding easier. Source: me with sore ribs because my rubber boot got hung up the other day.

Yes, well, it’s very important to keep all the horses at the waterpark calm.

[–] jj4211@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Hey, last time I was at a water park a woman's top popped off at the bottom of a slide and half of us died getting trampled by the nearby horses.

Will somebody please think of the horses?!

I don't really like seeing anyone's nipples in public. But then, I also understand the difference between my personal preferences and need for legislation.

Ontario, Canada has had no topless law for many a year now unless it changed recently. Many boobs were showing when it 1st came out and the law against was rescinded. Now all these years later not so many boobs. Guess everyone became meh about it.

Other women, mostly, is the actual answer to the title question. At least in modern times. No one hates women more than other women.
