Equestrian Brony?

[Little Lizards 91]

I was just wondering if anyone else rides horses and is a brony. I know the community is HUGE so if you know anyone who rides and is a brony, please ask them to come on over! 

 

I've been told many times that I 'defy the rules of bronyhood' by riding horses (and on occasion, I do ride ponies) and that I don't qualify for being a brony because of "enslavement of our fellow friends". So what are your thoughts? Do I qualify for being a brony? Or am I a villain to be defeated using the power of friendship?

you're never a bad brony. i mean, the ponies and horses are very diffrent then the ponies in equestria

i actually think it defies the rules of bronydom to call someone names like they did to you. i mean, we are all about love and tolerate, right?

HOW COULD YOU?!?!?!?! If only friendship could summon explosions like it does in their world :/ Jk. I don't see why you wouldn't qualify as a brony.

Yeah, I've questioned that logic many, many, times and still haven't come up with some sort of logical answer. I'm not enslaving them, they were born in captivity and they're mostly allowed to be outside unless it's raining.

Well i love dogs and own a dog, am i a jerk? Of course not. Part of having a horse is loving, feeding, sheltering, and (in the cases of horses) riding. TBH that costs a  lot of money. Sure you don't ride a dog or a hippo at the zoo but those people are caring for those animals too not keeping them imprisoned.

 

Are there even wiild horses anymore??

Sorry but if some brony is tell you that you are not a brony cause you like to ride horses well then they are Loco in the coco as Pinkie pie once said! There is noting wrong with a brony or better yet anypony riding a horse, in any level its not like you are hurting the horses or anything. You are giving them food, home and a great deal of love like a lot of ponies do with there pets well I don't like to say pet I call them family . But like I said they are just Loco in the coco

Very few, but I do believe there are some, not very many wild herds of horses. I'm not 100% positive, though, so I would find a more liable source.

Well, you aren't a bad brony as Spike has committed this act as well.

 

As for me, I'm not an active equestrian, but I have went horseback riding before. It was really fun and the view was gorgeous (I was horseback riding on a mountain.)

[Little Lizards 91]

Awesome! Sounds like you had fun! Sometimes I do wish I could take my horse out (there's a forest preserve not too far from the stables) but when we do ride outside it's usually cross country.

I haven't rode a horse myself, but I AM a COD and sci-fi nerd brony

But, there's nothing wrong in that. You should be whoever you are no matter what, and that's why I'm proud to be who I am.

Although I rode a horse myself, I am a gamer brony . I actually don't like riding horses because it hurts my d*ck and I can't even control the horse itself anyway.

Hahahaha, riding them is good for them, it's like walking your dog. Necessary exercise.

 

Unless you're a 250-lb man on a Shetland pony.

Yup, luckily I think I'm a lot lighter. But I could still ride ponies if I wanted too. I used to ride ponies a lot more. They were all pretty darn stubborn.
