Well, I know there always has to be one decenting opinion, but I happen to have all geldings on my place.  The only time I have a problem with them is if I let a mare onto the property.  I do agree that mixing mares and geldings is asking for problems.  Of course, someone will probably reply that they do that all the time with no problems.  It's just that, if I have my choice, I'll continue to have all geldings.
