How did such a powerful, majestic, massive beast manage to get so thoroughly domesticucked by puny humanlets?

Actually horses used to be manlets themselves. Humans bred them to be bigger, stronger and faster to make them suitable for riding and pulling carts n' shit
Now human women cant get enough of the BHC

I'd get domesticated and live with too if people named entire cities after me and have gods based off of me.
>>3155092
Horses before selective breeding used to be tiny manlets, if anything humans made the species into alphas

You forget to mention we made them manlets again. Human selective breeding can be very fucked...

Bit.

You realise the pony was bred with a mini cock in order to train little girls to make them better at relieving the balls of bog horses in adulthood?
Read pic related.
tl;dr wild stallions resist the shit out of authority, are aggressive as fuck, are complete and utter cunts not unlike zebras, etc. genetic evidence suggests all horses came from hilariously few male ancestors, which went from the biggest pussies the species had ever seen, to the all-fathers of it, courtesty of a few crazed individuals among based fucking Proto-Indoeuropeans who thought it clever to ride these meat animals (they were hunted for meat and continued to be eaten after domestication and riding), and that's how we got our ponies

They didn't ride them. They made them pull wagons.
Riding would have been difficult not only because horses were smaller and not yet genetically adapted but also because Proto-Indo-Europeans were big guys with big maces.

>They didn't ride them.
They did.
>They made them pull wagons.
And carts.
>Proto-Indo-Europeans were big guys with big maces.
>This early phase of conflict, caused partly by herding on horseback, might be visible archaeologically in the horizon of polished stone mace-heads and body decorations (copper, gold, boars-tusk, and shell ornaments) that spread across the western steppes with the earliest herding economies about 5000–4200 BCE.
I can't post the whole chapter with the latest archaeological findings on bit wear and horseback riding, read the book, it's on libgen.

For you

No, there really is no evidence that riding horses was a serious thing so early.

I'm sure this is an insight into the Psyche of both /his/ and the 4chins along with that fucked Anne Frank greentext but I'm too stupid to know what it means
>>3155413
Its just advanced forms of shitposting

It came straight out of the horse's mouth, examine it
>>3155230
If the human race put its mind to it, it could make all your /d/ fantasies come true.

Animals inherently crave domestication and domination. This includes Humans.
It was only natural horses be domesticated.
bump for people who love horses.
