That's right. Fish can be outstandingly virile! Sir Bleonard is still all aglow from his obvious effectiveness (ref. Helen), so he's been pretty well-behaved around here of late!
As for fishettes, I remember the story. Come to think of it, so does Signor da Winki.
Now how did I HRT your feeling??? I was taking on the content of your horse posts, not your sentiment on the matter. I respect your right to feel strongly about the issue; now I'd like to feel empowered to feel differently. You gotta admit, the website doesn't exactly inspire confidence in the provider's interest in objectivity. All good sensationalist newsporn has a factual core. It's the thick golden-brown crust of innuendo and insinuation that makes the bait so tasty.
I was inspired to do a websearch on Premarin. Looks like the basic premise (pregnant horses with diapers) is true. Now as to cruelty, goodness. That's a subjective call. After posting that book review in its entirety, you're setting me up to look barbarous if I come out swinging on the side of us unreconstructed carnivores. OK, then: Grunt. Scratch. I eat meat, and I like it rare. Still moving even.
The slaughter of the foals seems like the nicest thing to do under the circumstance. Think of it as, Idunno, horse partial-birth abortion (retroactive)!! I mean, that's a lot of saddle veal! The foals are a byproduct, and the demand for live horses (say by farmers or sporting equestrians) is much smaller. And (true to form) I think horse is yummy! And since I'm here to hoist the banner of commercial supremacy - heck, Jack-in-the-Box needs the business!!!
I hope you understand my tongue is firmly in my cheek, right next to a bite of my runny greezy Porterhouse. Want some?! :-)
