Girls and horses are like guys and cars... (well, in most cases).
I am married to a horsewoman. She has been riding since she was eight. She travelled to England (Harrowgate just north of Leeds) to study riding and teaching riding. She has been teaching riding to kids and adults since about as long as I have known her.
I've asked her to explain it but she can't. Our son was raised around horses (hell she riding well into her last month of pregnancy and had him on a horse before he could walk). He likes horses about as much as I do... which is to say, we both think they are cool, and can ride them but we don't make a point of doing so.
My 3-year-old daughter? Nuts for horses. She's already been kicked, stepped on and she still loves to ride. She has her own joddies, boots and half chaps. She's getting her own grooming kit for Christmas...
It's just a girl thing.
