Hi #fediverse. We need to talk about something.
While talking to a colleague it came up that they have never sat on a cow. Like, not even once in their childhood.
Another colleague listening in admitted they also have never sat on a cow.
My hypothesis is that most people have at one point in their life sat on a cow.

Have you sat on a cow?

So. Looking at the current poll numbers I'm starting to have a suspicion my hypothesis will be disproven.
There's two ways I thought this could be people's lived experience:
1) At primary school during an excursion to a petting zoo or dairy farm. And then just to sit (with or without saddle) for a bit on a friendly dairy cow.
2) Subset of people, growing up with access to dairy farms: kids bumbling around trying to actually ride the cow.
(I personally check both boxes)

in reply to Petra van Cronenburg • • •They used their cow to plow, pull carts etc.. I bet they sat the children on their back, too.
They used a dog to pull the not so heavy loads like the milk cart to the milk house.

in reply to Pepijn • •@Pepijn I don't think I've ever sat on a cow or seen anybody sitting on a cow, even if I've spent a big part of my childhood summers at an alp (pasture)
this happened between Italy and the Italian speaking part of Switzerland
(I've sat on at least a donkey, and some horses)
