My GF thinks this about horses. SHe has never bee around one in her life.
Horse-fucking jokes aside, gonna be real here: actual horse girls are fucking crazy. I’ve known a few of them over the years, and all of them care more about horses than hours of their free time, space, money…
One guy had an unemployed wife with a horse. 🙄🙄🙄 Got their horse when he was 9, IIRC. So she’s not bringing in any money, this very normal & unimpressive horse is just eating through his finances & stealing an inordinate amount of attention of his wife from him. I think that fucker lived until he was 26 or 27, so do the math, he was financing that horse for 17 or 18 years. DDG’s AI assist says: “The annual cost of owning a horse can range from about $8,600 to $26,000”. Eh. Just assume the cheaper end of like $5-6K and still…$85K+, wth, right?
It should come as no surprise this regular-ass man seemed to be financially poor, despite working two jobs.
Another fun little anecdote, though, that may or may not be true -I’m inclined to think it is true- I hear horse girls that ride a lot naturally leads to very very very good sex, because frequent horse riding develops very strong core & pelvic floor muscles. Balance. Organic movements, rocking back & forth for hours on end. Basically they ride a horse & you can bet they can ride the shit out of you while fucking; the position is called cowgirl, after all. You just have to decide between a few hours of happy-happy fun times & having any serious amounts of disposable income, financial security.
I’ve come to the conclusion that you don’t marry a horse girl, but perhaps if you’ve got a girl you like you take her to ride horses sometimes. As a treat. Hell searching prices, assuming high end $80/session, you could do that twice monthly 24x80=$1920 annually. Or she could get herself involved in equestrian care & shovel the shit or whatever, and probably ride for free/cheaper. Idk this is just a mental exercise for me at this point, but personally I haven’t found a horse girl attractive enough, worth pursuing. Just some things for you to think about, good luck to you & your girlfriend, never ever ever let her talk you into buying a horse. That’s dumb AF. Rent instead!! 🙂

I genuinely love all animals but horses seem like such a high risk low reward endeavour. Lots of expenses, time consuming, kinda shit as a genuine means of transportation compared to other options. All for the companionship of (other than being a mount) a somewhat lackluster animal. Like I could get along fine wich horses if I had to but why not get something with a bit more character instead?
That’s your problem; you don’t know anything about horses.
- Expensive yes, that’s not really their fault
- A horse can take you places that no other form of transportation can. Getting dropped off by a helicopter doesn’t count
- Horses are not “lackluster animals”, what does that even mean? Horses have personalities, intra- and inter-species relationships, are highly sociable, are attentive and loving animals and are amazing companions
That being said I would never get one (see point one).
I took riding lessons as a kid and my best friend from school had a horse which we used to visit quite a lot. What I said is highly subjective but mostly based on my own interactions with horses.
Expensive yes, that’s not really their fault
That’s true but doesn’t really change the fact
A horse can take you places that no other form of transportation can
If that’s your main concern then by all means. I’d argue a donkey or a mule would be more suitable for rough terrain though but of course not quite as fast.
Horses are not “lackluster animals”, what does that even mean?
Admittedly that’s probably the most subjective part. What I mean by lackluster is that they don’t really outshine any other pet in any category other than “speedily carries you around”.

That’s all true but so do cats, dogs and other animals small enough to live with you. The thing about horses is they’re often forced to stand around in their stable all day until someone comes around and hops on their back or at least lets them out. That’s not their fault either but they’re just very unweildy as far as pets go. A friend of mine is a vet and she says horses are in her experience the most neglected pet there is because it’s so much effort to take care of them properly.
That’s moving the goal post from saying they’re just boring to saying in order for them to display their full range of social behaviours you need to spend an ungodly amount of time and effort but I never claimed my initial comment to be well thought through 😅
