So much of human history would have been impossible without horses. I've joked that horse girls are just in touch more with their ancestors, but it's true. People have had deep and meaningful relationships with horses (and many, many other working/livestock/companion animals) and that's only stopped for 90% of people in the past 100-odd years.
Horses are not bougie. Humans have built society on the backs of horses
I understand the stereotype of rich horse people but it’s kind of gotten insane that anyone with a horse is now automatically seen as a landed gentry bourgeois so much so that people are straight up calling horses bourgeois creatures and calling for their ABOLISHMENT and even extinction like wtf is wrong with you. Don’t let the era of the automobile erase the horses history as a beast of burden for the working class and farmers. Horses belong to the proletariat just as much if not more than the role of rich person’s plaything.
