What Is It?

The other partner can take on the role of another animal, but usually assumes the character of trainer, caretaker, rider or breeding partner.

The three main categories of pony that fetishists can assume the role of are: Cart Ponies (who pull carts or buggies), Riding Ponies (who are ridden by their master/mistress), and Show Ponies (who are trained in the proper gait, dressed up, groomed and displayed).

Obviously, with a master/pet dynamic, this fetish combines bondage, leather, discipline, dominance and submission.

Required Equipment:

While no equipment is required (we've all seen naked ponies), pony players can go all out with saddles, reins, bridles, riding crops, grooming brushes, blinkers, spurs, and all manner of dressage gear.

Insider Quote:

"I love giving rides to women in all the various forms, mild to wild, and especially shoulder riding. To me... it is an exquisite expression of the caring a man can have for a woman. It makes me feel strong, protective, chivalrous and romantic. It is a wonderful way to connect with a woman in a unique way. For the woman it can be fun, sexy, playful and practical." -- Owner of RidingWomen.com

Fun Fact:

Catering to the pony play crowd is the magazine, Equus Eroticus, which provides information on the fetish, pony play events, and even sells pony girl trading cards.
