How you know a horse is a boy...

I was visiting a family last week, and they had a three year old cousin visiting.

I talked to the little girl as she was riding on a rocking horse. I said something about "she" or "her" -- I can't recall which I said now -- in reference to the horse.

"No, it's a boy," little Susie assured me.

"Oh, okay!" I said.

"He's a boy horse because he's mean and he'll bite you."

So, forget what you've heard about checking gender, and take it from little Susie. If it bites and it's mean, it's a boy.
