This is just a bit of fun, so for anyone who easily takes offence, look away now put down any sharp objects.

My OH says that all women that own horses have got oss faces and the longer they have a horse, the more they begin to look like one and yes there's more!.... that we have have fat ar*es.

You have my permission ladies to tar and feather him as many times as you wish, just watch the wedding tackle though.

So what do your non horsey OH's say about us lot that have horses? please share, I'd like to know that I'm not the only person on HHO is about to have 1000's of angry women knocking at his door this evening lol.

Can be funny, insulting, true, stupid whatever...just share any comments they have passed.

or been married? lol

Ok so where on a roll now, that was very brave of you superhorse, thank you for sharing that with us, not quite as bad as my OH's remark but again...could be rather offensive to anyone who has just recently got divorced.

NEXT!

My OH complains I stink of "eau de pony" and that my hair generally looks like I've been pulled through a hedge backwards!! He generally refers to me as being akin to a smelly bag lady

He thinks all horse owners are a bit "tapped".. think he may well have a point
shocked.gif
 
Hm. Let's see: no money, but the horses always 'need' something; no time that isn't spent working to pay for the horses; no time that isn't spent either working (to pay for horses) or just being with the horses; not only a wife that smells of hoss, but a daughter and a house and two cars that smell of horses as well; selling of home to spend a huge amount more of the money earned (see above) on a home the horses can live at too.

Hm. Still can't see any issues...

OH was devastated to find that our yard is not populated by Ellen Whitaker lookalikes wearing skin-tight white joddies...

.....instead there are smelly,scruffy women in wellies covered in mud, horse-hair and straw .....smelling of poo/wee and smoke from the muck-heap. Tramp-like, generally.....

Gutted, bless him.

maybe thats just us common Yorkshire folk lol.

Mind you Whitakers are too, but they can afford to look great!

My OH also think horsey women are tapped as well but also says that you will never meet a bitchier bunch than horsey women!!! Oh and he doesnt understand why we need so many rugs or saddles?
 
My other half said that he thought his sport (Karate) was full of old people (some over 70), but horse riding you can be old and fat!! Possibly less insulting as although not fat, he's not that trim
 
I know, what is it with them moaning about how many rugs we have, all the time I get

''haven't you got enough rugs for that blooming horse...how many rugs does it need, surely it doesn't need another new rug!'', yada yada yada

Trust me Jamie love, its not like a handbag OR a shoe fetish...he really does need them.

He's still not convinced.
smirk.gif
 
Happily for me, OH also has a bit of a rug fetish.....so no complaints from him re rugs etc...

.....however he did have a bit of a moan on when I had about 4 saddles on the go at once.....they were in the shed, in the car, over the bannister.....
 
Friend's new boyfriend was initially quite pleased with the jodhpurs aspect, but now just moans that all her clothes smell of horse wee...
My OH is absolutely paranoid about bits of flax and horse hairs in the house...I point out that if we had a house with a garage and dedicated horse clothing washing machine inside, it would never be an issue!
 
The sitting room now has five saddles in it as I try and get up the oomph to write them down for SM

. There's a rainsheet hanging over one of the bannisters. An exercise sheet covered in yuck is on the kitchen floor. And I've left some boots hanging around somewhere....

He thinks I'm mad and take my life in my hands every time I get on Dylan (this from the man who drives in road rallies)
He is slightly worried by the fact that I seem to carry more muscle than he does
wink.gif

He is constantly astounded by my high pain threshold (I got my hand broken when my friend's horse kicked me - I laughed)
He does approve of the jodhpurs, and my fat (it's not fat, it's muscle!) a*se, because it gives him something to hold on to (men ... )
When I introduced him to Dylan, they looked at each other in a way that said "I'm not yet sure whether you're a threat to me or not."

Well the OH just moans that I smell like a barn, walk shavings into the kitchen that have got stuck to the foldy bit in my jeans, my car stinks and I have got half my wardrobe in there for when I get changed from work in to yard gear or vice versa and why does the horse get his bed made better than my own.

At work the abuse I get is that I get called Horseface (they even changed my password at one point!) and that I come back stinking of horse pee when I go to the yard at lunchtime.
 
Haha this thread is making me ROFL!!

OH just complains about the smell and the fact I don't always wear my dressage gear - (hmm mucking out in white wouldn't be good).

Its my Dad thats the worst - he says all riding girls have big bums and bow legs.... Grrr!

I have K legs...thats my excuse for not been able to use more leg, didnt wash very well with my RI
crazy.gif
I told him it was easier for him as he had bow legs

I have to laugh at Mrs M's post are you sure you arent my alter ego? I currently have 2 saddles on the bannister, in my attic there are 5 more, plus boxes of spare tack (you never know when in might come in handy) and as for rugs I think I could open a shop they are in my garage, at the yard in a box in my kitchen!!!! it is a pine storage chest though and the kids use it to sit on when they paint so its dual purpose. I also seem to collect horses, I did get down to one when I was pregnant but now back up to 3 but keep looking at more?
 
My OH cant understand why during the week it takes 20mins to muck out and on a weekend it takes 4hrs?
Obviosuly as it needs to be done properly at the weekend!!
He also moans when i run in "my" house upstairs with my shoes on to go to the toilet!! Its my house so he should keep is neb out, do as he's told and vacuum the bloody stairs!
 
I was bridesmaid at my friend wedding last weekend. I was shocked when told the hairdresser's appointment would take 2 hours for me and the bride (also horsey).

Was telling boyfriend about it .... he said it would take them 2 hours to brush all the hay out !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
My new boyfriend of 3 months said last week " if i had 4 legs and lived in a field you would pay me more attention"
Oh yes i would so i dumped him ahh single again.
But now i have time to spend with the horses. Result......
 
Just asked my hubby, apparently not ALL women who have horses look like a horse, just most of them!

I get told off when my hair smells TOO horsey... normally try to not waft it under his nose, and get away with it most of the time
wink.gif
