If you are asking these questions you are far from alone. Interestingly, although the majority of horse owners tend to be women, in the top levels of competing you will see far more men than you will do hacking about the lanes or down at the stables on a Saturday afternoon, which is a question probably answered by levels of testosterone and competitiveness. What is it about horses that women love so much? Why are so many women out and about on horses, and why are men missing out?
It’s a really interesting thing to think about, when you consider that 90% of horse owners are women.
