What is up with his legs?

I have been looking on craigslist for horses stuff that I might be able to use, and I came across this ad. Why are his legs up so far?

He's a guy and he's bareback. He's trying not to hurt his... parts...

Ha love that reply,

Probably keeping his boots on.

Why people get on horses with muck boots is beyond me.

Someone probably said... "Hey dad! Get on this horse so I can take a picture"... and he said, "I ain't gettin' on no darn horse. I got work to do" and mama said "Get on the horse old man!" and he said... "@#$% women."

Ha ha ha great reply!

LOL. I love the above post! It's too hilarious!

He's probably used to his overstuffed armchair and thinks that if he could just get his feet forward a few more inches, he could make contact with the ottoman hanging from the horse's chest.

Hehe you guys are a crack up, though I must agree he's probably just trying to keep his goodies from bein squashed....

Bahaha. When I looked at the ad, I was looking at the horse. I kept thinking, "I don't see anything wrong with his legs...?"

But then I read Farmpony's dead-on answers. And I figured it out. :P
