86. horsewomen are frequently subjected to sexual inferences regarding horses

Fri Jul 20, 2012, 09:55 AM

Jul 2012

and riding horses, not to mention Catherine the Great stories, by jerks, in the guise of "jokes."

To those of us who have heard such jokes for a lifetime there absolutely is a sexual reference in the OP and it has gotten very very old and not funny. It may or may not have been intended, but the inference most certainly is there.

That's what the heck is wrong with "us people." So what the heck is wrong with "you people" that you find such lame attempts at jokes, and insulting women who like to sit on horses, amusing? Amusing to you? Not to the butt of your stupid sexual innuendo.
