no animal i know 'likes' bridles. however, 'liking' something is very antropomorphic, human like feeling, horses do not show such complex emotions. horses accept the bridle and noseband. they do not 'like' nor 'dislike' it. though it can be argued the noseband is not natural for the horse, therefore on these grounds your placing them under stress in unnatural situations

Yes it is smexy..

However, I disagree, horses feel like and dislike, its humans whome struggle to understand the complexity of the horses emotions, the same with most domesticated animals, not so prominent in the wild.

A lot of people put a sheepskin nose band cover on their bridle so you would sell some. Whether the horse likes it or not is a different matter but most horses that wear them don't seem to complain. Hope this helps?
