: Um, lots of farm animals have that. See, they have hooves and no way of wiping. I'd also venture to say this "he who has shit caked on their ass should not throw stones at sheep". I'm looking right at you when I say that, and one eyebrow is cocked charmingly.
I'm a she. So much for your keen powers of observation. ;-)
: I like most any animal. Used to live in Indiana, got to be around plenty. Sheep and cows are plenty friendly. Not only that, but sheep are cute and they totally help make sweaters.
I'll give you the sweaters. I'm not saying they should be wiped off the face of the earth, or anything. I'm just saying that I'm all good with never being anywhere near them again.
: I suggest you hang out with other sheep before you pass judgment on the entire species. It's like hanging out with JUST you and then declaring that all VA board dwellers are narrow-minded people who call farm animals bad names.
I've been to Ireland. There were sheep every 3 feet, once you got out of the cities. I've had more than enough exposure to sheep to form my own judgement.
My mind's plenty broad. Just not a big fan of sheep.
