    Equestrians really should have to use those horse poop bags. Seriously–we have to clean up a small dog poop and they don’t have to clean up a gigantic pile of horse shit?

      To be fair, poop from herbivores isn’t as much of a health issue as poop from omnivores and carnivores. And it also doesn’t smell as bad, IMO.

        Sure, but do you want to ride through it or step in it? Either way, you’re dealing with shit. Everyone should have to clean up after themselves. Even humans are supposed to pack out their own shit when they go hiking or camping.

          Out the three options mentioned so far, horse would bother me the least. Depending on the situation it might not bother me at all, honestly.

          You city folk are too sensitive.

              You’re asking me if I want to step in horse poop? Sorry, I thought that was rhetorical. Of course not, but as I just explained, I also don’t find it offensive. It’s just not a big deal, unless I’m wearing nice shoes and pants.

          What? Most people seem to agree that horse poop isn’t nearly as offensive as dog. In my experience, the only people who disagree are from the suburbs and have never been around horses or horse poop.

                I said the smell isn’t offensive.

                just say you like the smell of horse shit mate.

                you do you, but don’t try to sell me a load of BULLSHIT that horse shit doesn’t smell. lol.

                Then you try to front like “well if you EVER SMELLED it you’d find it lovely”

                that’s the shit that really sticks out. That’s some goofy ass garbage.

                  I honestly never realized people felt this strongly about literal horse shit. Not just you, but other commenters too. Blows my mind.

                    dunno what to say about people finding the smell of shit unpleasant. you realize this was like, a big deal, about a 120 years ago when cars became a thing right? People were happy to no longer have to dodge turds in the streets?
