22. Horse back riding has a major benefit - lots of girls ride horses

A very few young men. If money is tight, see if he can work in exchange for lessons and riding time. That will burn off excess energy and develop muscles - the better to impress all those girls.

The young man who works here at my farm never has a problem having very attractive young women to hang out with and that's been true since I met him four years ago when he was fourteen.

Another benefit for either boys or girls is that working with animals like horses teaches control and assertiveness.

Good on you for showing him real boobs. Marie Marie Mar 2012 #1
