I see your point. I do recognize special bonds between human and animals. But it don't see horsebackriding as one of them. So many thoughts for me ... I'm not sure yet were for me is the 'line'... Like we all agree we don't like the style of Adelinde ... the rollkur is cruel... but I see so...

That might be the case, one day the human will extinct as well... just like other animals, and plants. It still doesn't justify to exploit horses.

Yes my knowlegde of English is not good enough to put my thoughts about this subject on this forum. I'm not a well known rider, but I indeed used to ride horses, because my father had is own stable. When I grew up, I realy started to think about horsebackriding and owning horses (and other...

The Closing ceremony was one trip back to memory lane! So beautifull. Best part for me was Freddy Mercury. I had tears in my eyes. The Dutch Athletes are back in the Netherlands. They all said the games were so good organized and lovely/ nice Britisch people.

I do feel better voicing here my opinion just like you have an opinion about Adelinde. You think she is cruel ... I just take it a step further. I agree that her ridingstyle/ method is cruel ... and horsebackriding. I'll leave you now, back on topic: Rant about Adelinde, such a mean and cruel...

No, I'm from Groningen, the Netherlands, And I don't know anyone by that name.

I'm not campaigning to release the domestic horses. That would be a pefect world to me, but humanity destroyed the natural habitats of the horse. That's a shame. I and thats MY opinon, (I don't know Peta) think horsebackriding in general is cruel to horses. My love for horses and animals in...

Especially Bull Terriers is a very sick breed. Look how their noses are bred. The white Bull Terriers are all deaf. Again people created/ bred very sick dogs, (we are talking about dogs now so it seems). If people keep buying these breeds, these dogs keep suffering.

Yes I think that's the same... Humans created awfull dogbreeds. Look at the health for example Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. People who buy these dogs allow this to happen.

The horse in the avatar is not my horse. I will never want to 'own' a horse. I'm not a ''slavedriver" I grew up in a horseworld, cared for many horses, but choose to turn my back on this same horseworld because of my personal opinion/ beliefs when I grew older (and wiser). I don't like the...

My avatar has nothing to do with my opinion just the first picture I came across for looking for an avatar of an horse that was 80 by 80 :p

No I don't interact with horses, just love to watch them in the wild... what is left :( The thousands years of breeding, to 'design' a horse to human preference doesn't make it okay to ride them. Like you said it's not natural... they had to be 'designed' to have this unnatural behavior.

My first post, but this site got my attention through a search on google and I decided to registrate. Hello all! Anyway, I don't understand the whole fuss about Adelinde Cornelissen in general. I don't think the other riders are any better! I take it a bit further. I love horses and believe...
