do some horses/ponies just have a "girl" look about them or a "boy" look about them?
wondering if it was just me that thinks that horses have that look!

yes, definitely. i have a very girly mare (my new one), she has an absolutely beautiful face. hope this works... do you agree?
oops, sorry, trying to resize but it won't accept it. gggrrr.

i do like mares who look like blokes though, the real tomboy ones are ace xc horses. never had a beautiful gelding with a girly face, so don't know what they're like!
i have tried resizing that 6 times now and it won't change it. it's tiny on photobucket now, and i copy the url thingy every time i shrink it.

Amber is a very pretty girly girl, the old gelding we had virtually wore a flat cap and had a roll up in the vorner of his mouth. lol The other mares we have had have been a bit less obvious.
 
Patches must look rather butch because everyone insists on calling her a he.....even the vet who treats her and KNOWS she's a mare!

Apparently my mare looks like a boy - she was once called a 'he' by the judge in a prettiest mare class!! I was highly offended

Yes it was George, such a pretty little horse wasn't he? It was Mars who fancied him!!
 
My boy is very pretty, but I think our girly looks like a girl. Not really sure how others perceive them though. It's funny, I remember once trying to imagine both of ours as the opposite sex and couldn't do it!
 
I got asked if i was riding a stallion at a funride once, mind you she was all het up, bouncing all over the place and all snorty!!
Xanthe is deffinatly a pretty girly girl.
My aunties OH said pru was ugly once so she ran off snorting, dont think she was too impressed!
 
Hiya Seahorse
... yes I always thought he look like a girl

.... I also recall that he was very adept (sp) at being able to let himself out of his stable .... and you had to lock the slider thingy down on the door to keep him in

Id say one of mine DEFINATELY looks like a boy, he's the black Welshie in my siggy. He's full of presence (he practially launches off the trailer at shows screaming "ladeeeeeees, the Stud Muffin HAS arrived!". He prances around like a bloody stallion a lot of the time :P

My other ones could be anything. I think my grey (bless him!) looks a bit like a pansy boy!

Funny, we were talking about this at the yard today. My friend's gelding looks like a pretty girl, and usually gets called she by people who don't him. My cob on the other hand has a gentleman look about him and would look too butch to be a mare!

lol

Oh Yes,

This is Baby, a welshy, we used to call her a 'handsome mare'

The white one is Ali, far too pretty to be a boy.
