 RE: [RC] gay gelding? - Dodie SableTitle: Message(chuckle)  I had to 
smile at that story. An erection is not 
always a sign of sexual eagerness in a stallion.  It is also part of the 
dominance show that stallions will dance when vying for the position of top 
stud.  In a natural environment, stallions rarely "fight" but put on 
displays which are meant to scare off the challenger.  A fight will ensue 
only if one of the challengers doesn't back down. And!  If Elvis had 
a favorite mare that looked like Red, he could be displaying his 
affection.  Doesn't mean he walks the other side 
(grin). I have a stallion that 
is 24, I've owned him since he's 7 years old.  He absolutely loves black 
horses.  Doesn't matter if it's a mare or gelding, he wants all the black 
horses to himself.  He is a pasture stallion, running the fields with his 
mares and foals and does know the difference (quickly) between mare and gelding, 
but whenever a new black horse comes to the barn (mare or gelding) he is forever 
courting it. My other stallion HATES 
anything that in pinto colored..mare or gelding.  I've had to blanket pinto 
mares to cover the pattern so he would breed her and not ravage 
her. Dodie
