I made a mistake skydy. I understand the meaning of the word damline. It’s pretty simple. Breeders make mistakes all of the time when posting on her – sometimes glaring ones. Why don’t you make a big deal when that happens, hmmm?
Considering Cumano’s behavior Howard’s me in the past (when he or she was anything but kind) it shouldn’t be too surprising if I was defensive. But hey, I guess there is one standard of behavior for breeders and another for other people posting on here?[/QUOTE]
In all honnestly GAP, I have never lack respect to anyone on this forum before you on the previous tread. And again if I told you you were ignorant, it is because it is obvious you are. I do not pretend being an expert. As I mentionned before, I ask way more question than I answer regarding breeding. However, I am confident in what I know, and I base my opinions on my personnal experience, the mentors I have the luck to have helping me and the thousand of hours I spend educating myself. Outside of my career, I spend all my time and money building my Breeding program with only one goal, breeding horses I dream of, in the discipline I am passionate about, show jumping. I have not yet bred à GP horse, but I am only in my early thirties. But I worked In Europe with breeders who owned and stood Olympic stallions and bred horses that jumped to GP level, including the last WEG. I groomed for very well Known Olympic riders and had the opportunity to watch the best horses and the best riders work. I shoped in Europe at the best breeding farms to find my mares, saw hundreds of toungouse horses and took every opportunity I had to ask question to the breeders, and watch thème work. I have some of my best friends who ride nation cups giving their opinions on my mares, my foals and the stallion I choose. I am no exception, many breeders on here I know for a fact have more experience than me, Bayhawk being one of them.
We all respect, in our own manner I agree, others opinion. But you state your opinions as the evident truth, although it is clear you have no valuable experience at all either in Breeding or sport and the very limited knowledge you have is filed with stereotypes and plane misconception. Also, many of your opinions goes at the very opposite of what is pretty much unanimoysly accepted as basic knowledge, and you qualify people who disagree with you as goofy, ignorant, laghable and silly. This explain, I think, the attitude people have toward you. We put so much in our passion, it is irritating, although entertaining, to have you ridiculizing an otherwise interesting debate, without bringing any argument.
