Sure, but do you want to ride through it or step in it? Either way, you’re dealing with shit. Everyone should have to clean up after themselves. Even humans are supposed to pack out their own shit when they go hiking or camping.
You’re asking me if I want to step in horse poop? Sorry, I thought that was rhetorical. Of course not, but as I just explained, I also don’t find it offensive. It’s just not a big deal, unless I’m wearing nice shoes and pants.
What? Most people seem to agree that horse poop isn’t nearly as offensive as dog. In my experience, the only people who disagree are from the suburbs and have never been around horses or horse poop.
This is a great example of what OP was describing in their last paragraph:
There’s always someone bitching (justifiably or not) about someone else’s conveyance. Motorcyclists are universally loathed, but they’re not much worse than electric trail bikes, which are not much worse than electric mountain bikes, which are not much worse than mountain bikes… it really seems to boil down only to whether or not it’s your hobby.
dunno what to say about people finding the smell of shit unpleasant. you realize this was like, a big deal, about a 120 years ago when cars became a thing right? People were happy to no longer have to dodge turds in the streets?
To be fair, poop from herbivores isn’t as much of a health issue as poop from omnivores and carnivores. And it also doesn’t smell as bad, IMO.

Out the three options mentioned so far, horse would bother me the least. Depending on the situation it might not bother me at all, honestly.
You city folk are too sensitive.
That wasn’t the question.

Huge difference in time to fall apart/be absorbed into the earth.
good for you, keep it to yourself.

horse shit and cow shit do smell. fuck you, I grew up around stockyards, acting like it doesn’t smell is ridiculous.
I never said it doesn’t smell. I said the smell isn’t offensive.
It’s not as offensive, but it is still offensive.
It’s clearly subjective.
I don’t think having to navigate shit on a trail is subjective. Nobody wants to do it.
This is a great example of what OP was describing in their last paragraph:
you’re clearly decided on it. trust me, some other people find it unpleasant.
just say you like the smell of horse shit mate.
you do you, but don’t try to sell me a load of BULLSHIT that horse shit doesn’t smell. lol.
Then you try to front like “well if you EVER SMELLED it you’d find it lovely”
that’s the shit that really sticks out. That’s some goofy ass garbage.
I honestly never realized people felt this strongly about literal horse shit. Not just you, but other commenters too. Blows my mind.

You come across as really angry and bitter. Did someone make you eat horseshit as a kid? 😂
I like a faint smell of horse or cowshit, it’s very countryside
