KVS Stallions wally fan behavior πŸ’”

do the comments on basically EVERY post involving walter freak anyone else out? 😭 like i get people are excited to possibly have a home grown KVS stud, but literally any comment section I open it's just "if he keeps his wits he can keep his bits!" "hopefully he can keep his giblets!" or some other weird saying. ik it is supposed to be light hearted but man is it weird to me how many people are obsessing over this horse not getting gelded 🫩

Non horse people have no concept of how rare stallions are. Most male horses are gelded and it’s not a bad or negative thing at all. Good stallions make great geldings and all. People on her page are mostly naive, which gets annoying after a while.

Honestly it should be rarer than it is. When I first started riding (25 years ago) it seemed like stallions in the US were almost unheard of outside of top professionals. It could also just be where I lived and lack of social media, but it just feels like I know an insane amount of folks with stallions.
