I've recently been making a concerted effort to only refer to my mare in 
positive terms. I used to, for example, call out "Hi there fatty" every 
morning when I went to let the horses out to pasture (believe me, she puts 
the "air" in air fern, and the "easy" in easy keeper).

A friend of mine, not a horseperson but truly one of the nicest people I 
know (I don't understand these nice people at all) asked me how I would feel 
if she said "Hi fatty" to me every morning.

Never thought of it that way - no wonder she was always such a bitch ;>)

Anyway, now it's "Hello beautiful" or "Hello gorgeous". Occasionally during 
a ride, the normal round of explative-laden nicknames pours out, but old 
habits die hard...
